Alex Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 Now I know this is sad but does any one know how much the nose cone/bumper weighs inc the active spoiler? I'm curious as the JUN website lists the actual weight of their aftermarket job which I must say is very nice. Or does anyone know the weight of other after market noses. The Jun one is 4.9kg and is made from FRP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughie Posted October 6, 2001 Share Posted October 6, 2001 i've no idea what the original nose-cone weighs, but it's going to be a lot more than 4.9kg purely due to the active spolier and the motors incorporated to power that. In my view there's too many electric motors in the mkiv (well, a mkiv fully-loaded like a UK-spec). adds a lot to the weight. for eg, UK-spec has : electric wing mirrors electric active spoiler electric drivers seat & seat back electric windows etc.etc. personally I'd have been happy for Toyota to offer all those as options on the UK-spec. If you ditch all those motors you'd get a useful weight saving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
