These are the numbers I have for shipping
LS2 auto dressed 443 lbs/201 kg
LS1 auto dressed 458 lbs/208 kg
Dressed weight includes the intake manifolds, exhaust manifolds, all necessary belts including accessory belts, and fluids.
Note that the weights quoted for automatic are lighter dues to the difference between the weight of a flex plate verses a flywheel.
Does an SR20 really weigh in that much?
Edit: 135.2Kg

Google saying RB25 is 220kg to 250kg, so I retract my "half the weigh" statement.
add to that the weight of the RB25 gearbox...they weigh plenty more than say a w58 for example...
sideways bulk between the strut towers isnt such an issue to handling characteristics, but weight/bulk forward of the cross member most certainly causes headaches...
personally id only ever run a 4ag variant or an sr20ve build myself...but id most certainly pick a 1uz or even ls motor over running any kind of RB...

Sr20det and box is 183kg.. 20kg is a bit of weight but not a massive amount.
