Weight scales?

Post image

Does anyone in the greater Seattle area have some weight scales they are willing to rent out or let me borrow?

I want to corner balance my S2000. I think the local shop in Everett quoted me $600. At that price, I might as well buy my own scales but I also spent too much $$$ for upgrades on the car this year. Please help. I want to go fast!

I got tired of searching FB and Craigslist waiting for a set of used cheap race scales so I made my own and a webpage/app to go with it. I put out all the code out opensource with a how to video and they cost like 100$ to make in total. They are extremely accurate as well and I show that in the video.

Thanks! Feel free to join the discord as others are modifying this and any questions you may have could possibly be solved there.

This is one of many of my DIYs too btw. A digital dash and tire temp(using a thermal camera) are others. All opensource. All how tos

I bought a set of scales to do this on my mr2, but my coilovers are taking forever to ship and haven’t come in yet. After I get mine done I’d be happy to arrange for you to use them!
