    Calling it quits...

    Hey fella's I've been away from the board for about a year spending time with my two new sons. Even though I've been away I still remember have many great conversations with you guys and recieving helpful words when it came to troubleshooting. Guys like Tom Burek, Sean Roe, Gerald Levin...

    Selling the beast for a bar..

    Considering what you have under the hood (forged)... 45K isn't out of line, just ask any creampuff. To the right person as long as it's 97-99, your car could be painted sh!t brown and someone would still gobble it up. Similar to a Supra with a 2JZ motor, the car will hold it's value. Don't fall...

    Just curious...do you think 20" tires for the viper is just a novelty?

    Re: Just curious...do you think 20 Ab, Rotational mass affects braking efficiency, if you go beyond 18" I'd also consider a set of $BIG brakes$ if you don't already have them. ~Matt~

    How do i set my Vec 2 for Valet mode?

    Ummm, you may want to set that for 2000rpm IMO. Full boost comes on before 3000rpm, that's plenty of rev to screw around with or even worse cause an accident. However I do have one question; Why would you ever let a valet park that car? Kind of like handing a loaded gun to a child don't ya'...

    Why buy a viper, when you can do this to a vette !! (PICS)

    I've got it! Why don't you both set a date, say 8/01/05 and meet eachother at the track for a "put up or shut up race"? ~Matt~

    Why buy a viper, when you can do this to a vette !! (PICS)

    Even though this after school "fight" should have been had in the snake pit. I haven't belly laughed like that since Tommy-Boy. Sorry Chuck, but you had to giggle at least once. Those were some "world class" school yard insults :o (i.e. your momma jokes). Sorry ACR but that postcard cracks me...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    Considering that they just realigned the entire country 15 years ago, I'd say give them time. However my comments were specifically aimed at their ability to produce cars, plain and simple. As far as a brash statement like "American industry leads the world", I'd say "don't rest on your...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    IMO when it comes to German engineering whether it's by simplicity or with complexity when you compare apples to apples, innovation and quality are a priority not a convenience to them. I agree that the Japanese and German price differences will narrow, but not because of the German car prices...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    Camfab, the first two paragraphs in that post weren't my endorsements. They were quoted from a post a few higher. I pasted them in because I forgot to click "quote". I manually edited it, perhaps it will make better sense now. I agree we do still make some great stuff, I certainly would never...

    Great stuff Vic! I couldn't have said it any better. It's a sad state of affairs isn't it. Well, here's to the future :confused: (cheers), sometimes I wish I could just stick my head in a bucket and live in ignorance. Ah ha I've got it, I'll tell my kids to scoot over and I'll start watching...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    I understand and agree that the occupational ideology has changed, but I don't think outsourcing labor is the answer. You still have to maintain a trade deficit, that means you have to produce something and export it, otherwise your eventually cut out of the loop. Production dictates the supply...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    Our production issues and concerns with China are a whole different animal... Unions, retirement plans, health care, and Insurance Hikes are all crippling to our corporations and making the cost of business unreasonable. But everyone's looking out for #1 and pursuing the American Dream. If the...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    My writing is not in anger, my thoughts towards the American automotive industry are just an observation. This thread although it included the Viper was more about the big picture. The direction I see it heading, it's just my opinions poured onto a keyboard. However of all the American or...

    good CHEAP Oil catch cans on ebay!!!

    The moroso's don't have two stem's like this one, that's why they have the breather. They're simply meant to be puke cans. This design has two stems because it's supposed to be fed back to the oil system, via the pan or through a sump setup. I'm guessing you could put a smaller (bike) breather...

    What do Vipers, American Automakers, and T-Rex Dinosaurs have in common?

    All were savage rulers of their time, All were grotesquely powerful and instinctive, All were predator's in the most primitive sense, All were visually intimidating, All are talked about in the past-tense, None could predict the future, All may leave the same legacy... There is a very...
