Happy for you! Enjoy, and try not to spend too much time in your garage staring at it. Lord knows I still do. Excellent color combination. Have fun, Mike
Okay, I'll admit it ... Even if it means resurrecting an older thread. I still reread this thread every now and then. I feel closer to it this past year, as I now live in Houston and own a stroked / supercharged 2006 coupe. Still a great read some years later!
A recore never hurts. Running hot, or causing worry while you drive is not much fun. I tend to overdo this area, as I like to not wonder if I have enough. I'm a Ron Davis fan, but have also used competitors depending on the car / availability.My supercharged stroker '06 Coupe stays cool in...
You made the right call, and congrats!! If a car has 'stories', and those stories have holes or them, or elements that don't pass the sniff test, PASS. I've learned that the hard way a couple of times, don't wish it on others.
That should just pull straight out, using a good grip and being purposeful about it. The grommet may come out with it. The grommet will likely try to push into the assembly when you go to re-insert the sensor. You'll see, manage to get it right. Doubtful there's any sort of retaining clip...
To me, super low is less than 1K. Not saying 5K isn't low, but it's not the same as 500. I've had some collector cars that low, but not Vipers. I can't resist driving Vipers, so why torture myself?!
Ouch! Thanks for sharing. I no longer have a Gen 2, but never say never. Now I will have to put the paranoid eye on this area of my Gen 3 ... Unless they OEM improved this area.
Andy, not to crowd OP's thread, but I didn't know you were at ViperExchange. Small world ... I bought my Viper from Bernie early 2017; the 2006 Coupe, red with silver stripes, Paxton supercharged. Great ride!
Big premium for super low miles. It's been a fetish (for lack of a better word) of mine for the past decade. Then sometimes someone overpays for a crazy low mileage vehicle, and drives the hell out of it. It takes all kinds.
Wait ... Radios still have AM?! (Insert old person, walked to school in the snow / uphill both ways, stories here). Seriously though, that is pretty odd.
Thanks for the offer, Shaggy. I'm fine to start anew with this screenname.
ViperJeff, this video (link below) was posted before I bought it. Put down 745hp / 687tq.
A more recent dyno session had it in mid-720s. It makes enough to keep me on my toes.
