Original flywheel 12kg ish?

Anyone know the weight of the original radio?

Weighed some more parts the other day...

R53 trailing arm with the bracket to body (couldn't be bothered to remove them): 9kg
R56 trailing arm with the bracket to body (because comparison): 6kg

So that would be 3kg saved, per side. More than I expected.

R53 facelift RCA (with a layer of rust protection): 1.1kg
Kavs adjustable RCA: 0.8kg
Hardrace adjustable RCA: 1.8kg

I'm surprised that the HardRace are so chunky, but the trailing arms make sense. Did you compare the stock and Whiteline ARBs by any chance?

Not yet, but I certainly will once the stock one comes out 😄

That reminds me that I should also weigh the stock rear drop links vs. Whiteline adjustables.
