Don't you think so?
This might be true. I just did the same thing but without the springs on the shocks. (I assume this would be more accurate.) The front was about the same. 305-310g range each side. Within a couple g's the rear was off more then I thought. The speedo side was about 45g more around 385g vs 345g on the other side. I would have thought the motor mount would account for more weight, but I guess not.
I will be moving my speedo to the front like they recommend. I just didn't like how long the wires need to be for that and mine were not currently very long from a past car. However, it would let me take out the weights I have there currently and should make it closer to 50/50.
A bit more: I guess the only really accurate way I can think of to measure this is if I had solid links where the shocks go so it had no give. I can tell from both ways with/without the springs that the rear is about 50g more at each rear wheel then the fronts in my current setup.
