what is the max weight a Z can handle? I have to weigh my car "empty" and "full" and have to come up with 600lb difference, but my car is already somewhat heavy due to box under strut with 2 10w7.

thanks, andy

 

There is a sticker plastered on to the driver's side door wells on every car (that hasn't been tampered with) that will state your vehicle specification. Look for gross weight (I believe that weight includes car + weight you toss in + don't forget to add your weight too).

 

Don't forget the weight of the gas. Weight of water is 3.78 Kilograms or approximately 8 pounds. Since the specific gravity of gasoline is slightly less than water...you could say about 3.5 Kg per gallon.

I think the Z has a 20 gallon tank....so...that's about another 160 pounds.
