Anyone ever weighed the front passenger seat? Just trying to lose some weight for speed.

 

So I'll weigh it soon and post the weight since no one seems to have done so.

 

Brian (BDJ's) recently weighed them and said they were 48lbs each.

Aren't you bone stock? Usually people mod first and try cutting weight last.

 

Yeah I'm stock. Just curious as to the weight. Mods are on order and I cant wait.

 

Wouldn't you actually be removing weight for the reduction of TIME?
If you want to have more speed try waxing your car it would do more for top end than the reduction of the weight from one less seat.
What if in the unliklyhood you were to ever score a date? Don't give up hope just cause it hasn't happened doesn't mean it can't. Well it kinda does but one must remain possitive!

Time is speed, speed is time. My wife wouldnt like me to have a date. but that never stopped me before.

 

yeah they are about 50lbs according to my bathroom scale.

 

I may be going to a "HOT SWAP" setup before too long.

If I want to keep the SRT6 as a date ride - I'll need the factory seats - The racing events I want to run - (silver state classic & borr) all require a 5 point harness system.

Race - - Street - - Race - - Street???............

 

Good way to lose the weight of a car entirely - and half a house.

 

Is the seat easy to remove?

 

I would think so. Four bolts and some wiring connectors.

 

Power seats with track and motors shipping weight is 59# each. Take off a couples of pounds for cardboard and tape and you have roughly 57. It's hard to believe that the motors only weigh 7 pounds, but maybe that's all they weigh.

 

anyone try to swap to lighter seats and keep the motor functions of the driver seat?

 

My buddy Vic always runs in the Silver State Classic in his built and supercharged 800rwhp C6 vert. with full ZO6 body conversion. Some day I might just enter it myself as it seems like a blast.

 

Does anybody know how much a "Base" Crossfires passenger seat weighs?
Cloth vs Faux Suede, no motor, no heating elements, removable head rests, hey it all adds up.

 

Not to mention the added leg room for us "big" guy's.

 

Weighed mine recently- like others stated.... 48lbs.

 

we weighed the pass seat last year in the high 40 pound range, i dont remember exactly offhand, can anyone comment on the srt6 drivers seat weight due to the additional power mechanisms?
