The tech center for the 86 must be wrong. It actually has the coupe weighing more then the vert. This is a contradiction from what I have always known.

As for what you saw in the door, was that GVWR or somthing like that. I believe that number is the gross vehicle weight total. That is how much the car should weigh when it is loaded with passengers and gear. However it should also list curb weight on the door.

The G-Tech manual said to take the weight on the door "GVWR" and subtract 180Lbs per missing passinger. Exactly what the manual says "Weight is usually displayed next to the VIN on the plate by the door. It includes full passinger capacity. Subtract 180 Lbs. for each missing passinger. So the door says 3763 and subtract the 180 Lbs. "just me in the car" for a total of 3583 Lbs. Now, the Corvette Black Book shows a curb weight "The curb weight of a vehicle is the weight of an unmanned vehicle with fuel, oil coolant and all standard equipment installed" of 3239. Should I maybe add 180 Lbs. to that figure? That total is 3530 Lbs. What I'm looking for is a proper weight to set this G-Tech at and its starting to get VERY confusing. The 3239 coupe weight in the CBB sounds more correct when compaired to the Tech centers vert weight of 3266 Lbs. ALSO, mine is a auto and I know they weigh more than a manual......I'm SO freak'n confused what to put into the G-Tech.

Just take the curb weight and add however much you weigh, that is probably the best you can do without do some math calculations.
