weight distribution

[mrsmr2]

Where can I find a diagram (or similar) that explains the front to back weight distribution for a 2?  

For example, I would like to know how much is over the front wheels, how much in the middle, how much over the rears, etc.

Thanks

Well, the weight distribution is 44/56...but I've never seen info about how much is on which side of tyres  s:? :? s:?

Someone posted corner weights on SC, but I'm not sure they were for a stock car. I can't search for it right now though as SC is blocked here at work  s:? :? s:?

What would we do without lunch half hours.

Jason here's the Spyderchat discussion, haven't read it or the links in full. The first post intimates 43 / 57 for the spyder - perhaps Tem's got a front strut bar?   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Thanks.  Just had a look at SC.  There was a topic about weighing the cars at autocross (I think) competitions.

Not quite what I'm after but it did confirm Tem's front to rear ratio.

Next thing, are there any wire diagrams that show the internals of the car from the side, top, etc?

Thanks

I have corner weights from my car with some stuff removed, I can post them later tonight. It should give some idea...

The 44/56 is what Toyota quotes  s8) s8)

I have some advertising pics at home, I'll post them tonight...again, not the best, but should help some  s8) s8)

(+/- 0.5kg/corner)
Left Front 203.0kg
Right Front 184.0kg
Left Rear 257.5kg
Right Rear 237.5kg
43.88%/56.12%

Easy to see that the car was designed to achieve perfect balance, when the driver sits on the right side, lucky you!  s8) s8)

Worse than I remembered, doesn't really show anything everyone wouldn't know already, but here it is anyway:

Thanks Tem, I'm sure there's more in there.  But, it's a good start.

Nice picture as well.
