Okay, thats nice Shid but I wasn't talking to you specifically. The other guys on here were going back and forth and I made the information more apparent much like you. Remember, not everything is directed at you.

Japanese GT-4 would probably be:
3064.43lbs via Calculator

6th gen USDM Hatchback would be average around 2500lbs or 1133.98kg...
about a 500lbs or 226 kg difference.

also, where the hell did you go to wiegh your car?

[klr_toy]

[FallenHero]

[right][snapback]238101[/snapback][/right]

truck scales aren't all that accurate. they are meant to measure a hell of a lot more weight than 2800 lbs. but it is true that the official weight of our cars is without fluids, gas, etc

[shid]

yeah, measure at a truck scale and you'll be off by +-400 pounds

[klr_toy]

ya I figured it wasn't exact. Especially when it comes to 2800 even.

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

Is that 15.9 gallon fuel tank accurate? I've never ran my dry to see how much it holds.

[saleeka]

Ha, ST coupe may be lightest, but GT coupe 5 speed is fastest too bad new Camrys spank me

You are of course aware that there's a whole world outside of the US of A.

My old ST182 would leave a US spec GT behind. I also have the honour now of being the most massive 6th gen available. Despite the ally bonnet and various other bits, she's still a good 1360-1400Kgs wet...

[nik]

back from the dead so our cars are about 3000 pounds ST models

[celicaST]

back from the dead so our cars are about 3000 pounds ST models

is that a question or statement? i believe st auto hatches are around 2415lbs.

heres a link for 94, man st hatch 2415/auto 2495

those numbers are swapped for my 97, either a typo, or i believe the reason auto is lighter for mine is toyota switched to ect 94 celica specs

Very wrong. Why does everyone think are cars are so heavy? Look at your car in the parking lot it's smaller every car out there. My ST Coupe = 2395 lbs. Lighter than the Civic, Corolla, Integra, etc. etc. etc. Can't you tell it's a small light car when driving it?

ok i looked up curb weight=The weight of a fueled automobile with standard equipment but without cargo or passengers.

ST coupe =2475
ST liftback=2495

GT coupe =2620
GT liftback=2640

info from = http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/spec_Ext...=VIP&tab=2⊂=4

gross vehical weigth well mine is 3300

now i want to find a scale of cars thats accort to the +/- 10 to 100 lbs

[Celica_Fan]

whats the weight in kg's?

[blu94gt]

our cars arent that light

Why do you think they aren't that light? How much do you think they weigh?
Like said without fluids they're around 2400 pounds, with all it's fluids and gas I would say maybe 2600.

[nik]

whats the weight in kg's?

lb (avdp) KG
ST coupe =2475 lbs = 1122.64 kg
ST liftback=2495 lbs = 1131.71 kg

GT coupe =2620 lbs = 1188.41kg
GT liftback=2640 lbs = 1197.48 kg

[lagos]

i think 2800lb is fair to say . i remember somoene with a swaped celica saying thats what they got when they weighed their car. we are definetly under 3000

[Celica_Fan]

Your celicas are way lighter than our imports.

[nik]

[Celica_Fan]

thats right there with the us spec gt celicas with the 2.2L 5sfe
and your ss2 if its a 3sge 2.0L

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

I just looked it up, and my old Geo weighed in at 2410 lb stock and had 130hp at 7000rpm, stock. I returned it to stock weight, or close to, before I sold it, and it felt a lot smaller than the Celica. It was way faster too. I always thought it had a little more hp, and was a little lighter, but there wasn't much difference. What's wrong with this Celica?

EDIT: The higher hp but still lower than expected 0-60 or 1/4 times would mean it's a dyno queen right? lol. Never thought the Celica could be called that.

This is the weight for the Australian Spec Model if any of you are interested

SX & SX-R
Nominal Kerb Mass (Manual) = 1165 Kg
(Auto) = 1195 Kg

ZR
Nominal Kerb Mass (Manual) = 1178 Kg
(Auto) = 1208 Kg

Gross Vehicle Mass = 1600 Kg

Hey guys, if the car weighs in the 2000's of lbs, why does my tag say 3495lb (assuming total) and then FR 2150lb and RR 1860lb? Where are you guys getting this other weight from, if not by the tag on the car, inside the car door?

[terbear4god4life]

omg! mines 2900 with me in it

That's the GVWR, gross vehicle weight rating. That's if you have 4 of the fattest people you can find in your Celica, and each of you has brought as much luggage as you possibly can, and the car is full of gas. It's the most that the car should weigh.

Definition: Gross Vehicle Weight Rating

It’s how much weight a vehicle is designed to carry. The GVWR includes the net weight of the vehicle, plus the weight of passengers, fuel, cargo and any additional accessories. The GVWR is a safety standard used to prevent overloading.

3495 seems like a lot, even with the heavy 5S-FE. My insurance card says 2409, which seems a bit low. This is probably dry weight, not curb weight.

Curb weight on the AT200 is 2415 (with all fluids). Our cars are feather weights!

The ST204 is around 2550, and the ST205 is ~3000

EDIT: I have only been on these forums about a year now and have answered this question about 3 times. You fail at searching, random.

Well I have looked up stuff online but i got different answers all the time, which is why this was brought to my attention and I posed the question.

1 site said the Celica weighed 2700 (roughly) and another said 2400 (roughly), and then said the coupe is 10lbs less than the hatch. I looked at those tags on gross weight, because I didn't know what else to go off of and figured the weight would be on the actual vehicle, as that information is kind of necessary when shipping across seas. I didn't know where else to look. I decided to have a look when I questioned the weight of the MR2 and it's gross said something like 3300lb.

So now I am all kinds of fogged up, mudder fogger.

[Murgatroy]

The trim level has a lot to do with it.

If you have an ST model with no options, manual windows, no AC, no sunroof, etc... you will weigh a lot less. Chaos, my 5th Gen ST tips the scale at 2300lbs with me in her. She has gone on a minor diet.

I have seen 'stripped' hatches with the 5SFE that weigh in at 2500lbs.

Options and engine weight have A LOT to do with it.

As for how I know what Chaos weighs, unlike others who rely on random numbers thrown about, I weighed my car on a CAT certified freight scale.

[flyinglizard]

Faust:
Gross weight is the total weight of the vehicle plus the total carrying capacity. Curb weight is just the weight of the vehicle including all fluids. Your owners manual tells you the max carrying capacity, so just subtract that from the gross vehicle weight.

I believe the carrying capacity on my AT200 is 700 lbs last time I checked. Yours is probably more.

Just because all Celicas you have seen have A/C doesn't mean they all came with A/C.

A/C was an option. Not all Celicas have them. I don't quote for 6th Gens, but the 5th was available without it.

[BonzaiCelica]

uhh ya this is a 6gc website btw. so Im obviously talking about 94-99 celica. I have the base model st with everything manual except for electric mirrors. not trying to sound like an a hole either.
