I was looking at your website and I am not sure if you guys have a scale there to weigh cars.
Can you weigh my car? If yes, how much does it cost?

A PM would be appreciated. Thanks!

Vince@R/TTuning · 08-19-2009, 09:54 AM

looking at 40 bucks and that gives u total weight, cross weights and corner weights, and balance percentage....

Z31Fanatic · 08-19-2009, 07:16 PM

Is an appointment needed?

Vince@R/TTuning · 08-20-2009, 10:31 AM

^^^ yea....just cause we weigh the cars on the alignment rack and the alignment rack is always being used. A day or two notice is all that is needed..

superskaterxes · 08-20-2009, 12:52 PM

nothing against R/T but if u just want the weight u can just go to any track and they usually have a scale.

thats why we only charge 40 bucks...some people dont go to the track often enough.. and when they do the scales arent open.

Vince@R/TTuning · 08-21-2009, 05:45 PM

also the track aint gonna tell ya where the weight is...

If you are going to go there for a weight in, you might want to consider an alignment!
I just got my car done and it is amazing.... they are the best in the biz!!!

Bump for the guy's at R/T hey know thier S*it. My STI handles like a dream after my corner balance and other goodies. Well worth the time

Thats great that its free, but ur local scap yard is not going to tell u how much weight is on each corner of the car . I think $40 is a very fair price..

2 thumbs up for R/t

06SS/SC ALL DAY · 10-22-2009, 04:58 PM

they did for me so you thought wrong. Thumbs removed

DPancoast · 10-22-2009, 06:08 PM

LOL yeah because a weight station is accurate

So a weigh station gives you your total weight, individual corner weights, cross weights and breaks down all the pecentages. And then after that the weigh station gives some technical info on how you can move your weights around to make you vehicle perform a lil better....all for free!!

Also to get accurate corner weights the surface needs to be from the front of the car to the rear also side to side all needs to be within a 1/16 of an inch...
