Ive read in the celicas owners manual that the WRC GT4 weights 1200kg and the normal Gt4 weighs 1380kg is this true?

it says that the fuel tank is 8L smaller but thats all ive read that would make any difference. Im not sure if its stating the wet or dry weight tho.

If it is 1200kg, whats the difference that makes it lighter?

its true that gt four is 1380 kg.
a wrc doesnt have air cod., have light weight seats, no rear seats no interior trim. and many more light weight parts
its possible that a wrc gt four can be 1200 kg

The WRC DOES have air conditioning, very few have lightweight seats, They do have rear seats, the truth of the matter is that the WRC actually weights more than the normal st205 because of all the reduntant parts fitted to the WRC that were fitted for the imalgimation rules. The fuel tanks are the same size aswell BTW.

Unless we are talking actual rally cars here.......
