i think i read it is 55/45 front/rear for the original japanese one. i dont think anyone has gone and corner weighed a stock 240sx s14 with US equipment. i'd expect it to be front heavy like its overseas cousin.
s14s were always rare around jersey. typically i only see 2-3 pop up for sale every month. if you really want a 5spd, buy it out of state and have it shipped. or buy an auto and do the swap yourself. otherwise all you can do is wait.

Wow...Exit 10 off the Pike....THAT MUST SUCK!!! I lived off 9a *McGuire/Fort Dix* and hated the whole state!!! :fawkd:
Hmm...55/45 eh? I thought its a tad bit more closer to 50/50 like...52/48?

I would assume the us version to be worse due to the engine possitioning, the sr appears to sit further back in the engine bay and weight less.

exit 10 takes me to the town i live in, which isn't to bad. fort dix/mcguire afb is exit 7. anyways thanks for the info everyone, i'm just trying to gather some info on cars while i'm in iraq.

yeah, i noticed 5spd's seem to be real scarce in jersey looking through autotrader, thanks.

Isn't there a weight rating listed on the sticker in the driver's side door jamb? Check there and do the math if it doesn't give percentages

nothing to do with the curb weight
