620KGs ???
where do these 'original' weights come from .... ? Mine is 980Kgs on the scales with the CA18DE in it and an Auto box - yes i have added weight all over the place but not 360Kgs ! Talk to an engineer and challenge the weight you're being told or better yet weigh your car before doing anything. It's only $30 and may be well spent

Guys how much does a sedan weight as on my rego papers it says that my ute weights 680kg,i have been told that its the weight off the sedan times 2.5 and if i can remember correctly works out to be 1835cc which means it just scraps in.

No such thing as "exact weight". It depends on how it's measured (1/2 tank fuel, etc) and what options the specific car has. US models weigh more due to the heavy bumpers. Perhaps in AU the average 120Y is less than 20% heavier than the average 1200.
The figure that matters for your question is the one dattodude mentioned: Quote: you have to go off the weight that the RTA published for your car

The B210 is about 20-25% heavier than a 1200 ute.

does anyone know of an engineer in perth that is happy to talk about these things. i want to put a SR20DET into a 120Y coupe. i know you can put a CA18DET into a 1200 ute because there is the one featured in hot 4's from perth and i've met the guy, so if that can be done can i assume that the SR can be put into a 120Y that is a bit heavier?
thanks in advance Aaron

Oh and Mely thats what I did with my suspension. I had a stronger leaf made up by Pedders to stop the tramping, turned it over using the clamps then bolted it back up. It lowered the ute and it handles well.
Lowering blocks can add to tramping and can have legal issues around them. Just find out off the RTA what the legal height is (100mm?).
