    Gen 5 power mods

    I know the bellenger/corsa option that has been around for around 10-15 yrs which great. What else is there? Thanks

    2013 gts

    I agree that is pretty accurate but mine is brand new and has never been dealer prepped even. Just day in the show room for 2 years. Good deals are out there and not nessesarily right in front of you on ebay or autotrader.

    2013 gts

    I just bought a 13 GTS that stickers for 138k for 85k. Brand new, not a low mileage used.

    Slow start when hot

    Last Wednesday I installed a new optima battery and picked up a 2 gauge ground cable. Installed both at the same time. The car starts a lot faster cold, (thought it started fast before) and when hot it starts great. Thanks for all the input. The old ground strap looked fine, (car just turned 5k...

    Vette Forum's ZR1 vs ACR challenge?

    Why compare the ZR1 to the ACR? Because the ACR is the current top dog, it's really flattery in the basic sense. For anyone the think he would be unbiased when he is a long time corvette enthusiast is silly. I have driven the ZR1 and can say it's a great all around car, but come track day the...

    Since the official Gen V debut is near, lets talk Gen 3-4 values

    Excluding a flooding of 3-4 gen for sale I believe once there is a huge price difference between new and used the two markets operate independently to a point. As it is, vipers that stickered for 100k are selling for mid 50's. Then when you have a likely sticker of 120+ you are waaaaay apart...

    Viper Diminished Value Claims

    I agree but one thing to consider about agreed value policies is if the car is not stolen you will almost always end up keeping the car. Let's say you have a car typically worth 35k but have it insured for 60k. If you get in an accident causing 20k in damage you are well within to repair...

    Slow start when hot

    Great posts. I appreciate it. Yesterday I bought an optima battery, just made sense as it was time with the factory battery still in there for 4 years. I am going to drop in the new battery, if that doesn't fix it I will check the ground cable at bat and frame and up front from frame to block...

    Slow start when hot

    My viper fires right up when cool but after the engine is hot it almost sounds like it isn't going to crank over and then fires up. I am afraid I wont be so lucky one of these times and will have to wait for it to cool off. I know the starter is hotter which takes more power but don't know if I...

    Since the official Gen V debut is near, lets talk Gen 3-4 values

    It's all about supply-demand-and comparative pricing. There will always be a gap between the gen 3 and gen 4 just like gen 1 and gen 2. If the gen 5 is 125k it will have little or no affect on current vipers values. If its a little better all around and 85k then we would see a drop. To over...

    What is it worth?

    Once again good post. Thank you. Here is my perspective that may be off the mark, (wouldn't be the first time). If I were to find a clean stock 06 coupe with 5k miles and picked it up for 43k it would be a steal. Then assuming this car has modifications I would want anyway then I can figure...

    What is it worth?

    Good points Twister. I have been lucky enough to have the opposite experiences. This car is having another $4500 spent to make it right. I can see someone getting to a point where they feel enough is enough and cut their losses. The guy was 62, (not saying that means a lot) but makes me feel a...

    What is it worth?

    We all have different tastes in cars but how would you compare the 08 to the modded 06? It would seem that the 06 would be so much more fun. Also, how do you like the traction control? Thanks for your input.

    What is it worth?

    Have considered that. Rare instance that a shop local to the dealer is doing a once over of everything but the bottom end. No gaurantees with hi performance stuff but atleast I have the best possible idea right before a purchase as I can. The shop is doing about $4500 in tuning, replacements...

    What is it worth?

    I am looking at a 2006 solid blue coupe. It has 5016 miles, and a bit of aftermarket work done. I know most of the time you only get pennies on the dollar for aftermarket stuff. It has a Paxton with 10lbs pullies, headers, ported heads, roller rockers, blower cam, forged bottom end, light...

    wow another effing noise

    He did not need to warranty the springs either way if they did not get replaced. If in the end the noise was fixed without replacing any parts then it likely was a install issue. I like Doug and am strickly basing this off what shank said.

    Cat back exhaust... Which one?

    Will come on when you are driving it wrong. Drive the car like a viper (not a mini van) and should have better luck. ECM is the fix though
