Default K1 electronics install and weight ballance.

So how are people dealing with getting their cars electronics installed and weight balanced correctly?

So with my car I have:-

On the motor side
Hitec 7955TG @ 65g,
speed passion v3 6.5 motor @ 160g
+ about 40g of the esc - motor wires
+ the motor mount @ (has anybody weighed this??)
+ extra weight from the Fab system

On the other side I have
Reventon Pro @ 47g with fan (opposite servo),
orange micro receiver @ 11g
+ about 10g of esc - motor wires
+ slipper clutch bearing holder @ (again has anybody weighed this?)

Anyway without added weights I have a side to side difference on the scales of about 120g between the front axle and about 65g difference between the rear axle. I put 20g next to the esc to counter the servo difference and about 36g of weights (all that was available)behind the receiver virtually opposite the motor position. Now this gets the rear to within 15g but the front is still about 60g out (on the scales). Now to add another 60g to the front right quarter seems a bit ridiculous to me.
