SVX Interior weight

Does anyone have a breakdown of what different things in the interior weigh? Just curious.

Re: SVX Interior weight

I had a lot of my car's interior out over the weekend (rear seats, sides, shelf, and door panels). Nothing weighs a whole lot. I would say not much more than 50-60 lbs between all those pieces.

Re: SVX Interior weight

I know the front seats are kinda heavy. If the drivers seat is power its even more. Those prolly weigh the most out of anything in our interior, well, minus the dash.

Re: SVX Interior weight

Here's my best guess based on removing it all.
All Seats 75-100ish
Carpet 5
quiet steel plastic crap under the carpet 5
door panels 5
rear panel 7
sunroof 10
complete dash 10-15
crash bar behind the dash 20
bolts 10
rest minus computers and wiring 15-20

Re: SVX Interior weight

The door panels and dash definitley weigh something, and the front seats are ridiculously heavy. 3525 for the car is pretty heavy. I'm really really thinking about selling my 240Z and start with some serious modifications on the SVX, and I usually always start with stripping and stitch welding a car. Not for nothing, but I think a guy in a fast SVX would be a bit more memorable than a guy in a 240Z.

Re: SVX Interior weight

The svx's weight lie mainly in the frame structure itself and the corresponding steel mechanical components used throughout. To really save weight you would have to look at having these pieces custom made in a much lighter weight material. Dismantling the svx to a shell of its former self, will only net you negligible gains with significant discomfort...
