    sorry to chime in and be off topic too - but a vr6 mk3 weighs a good 1300kg realistically, and a VT commodore weighs 1650.... thats a big difference sure, but not half

    anyway, woot for something built and driven

    Just FYI... I ran a 14.1 @ 101 MPH in my 96' VR6 at WSID. Stock internals on the engine, custom CAI, dropped exhaust after the cat and GIAC chip.. I took the passenger and rear seats out and had 1/8 tank of fuel...

    60' time was 2.2 and i was running Falken semi slicks

    ok, i'll be the first to ask for time slips please . . . totally awsome if you did because that gives a lot of us guys who have made more modifications hope for some wicked 1/4mile times . . . though it seems far fetched

    Wet weight on the MK1 I have is only 850KG when I weigh bridged it.

    That's about half.

    Don't know? A full tank of fuel would change you by about 30KG, spare wheel another 8-10KG, those aftermarket seats are more substantial than the original ones - and possibly I had a few 'random' items in there like the fire extinguisher, some tools and my laptop bag that could have added 10KG or so?

    There is 50KG right there and bare weight from original specs is 810KG.

    Sorry to hijack!
