    Looking for a 1996 B/W GTS

    If you go with a later model you can get the airbag cutoff and it will be cheaper than a 96. The 96's are priced around the 02's so you would get "more" car for your money going newer.

    Snakeskin Green 2000 Gts On Ebay?

    Did you see the seats and dash... :omg: I can't imagine looking at that every time I got into the car.

    Someone's going to get a good deal on my Viper

    I am not sure you can compare the car you bought to the one being sold in this thread. I am not sure that "fresh paint" is a good selling point on an 01. Why does an 01 need fresh paint? That sounds like an accident fix to me. Good luck with the sale, that is a great price. I would have...

    Vipers at Autosport 2008 opener

    What a great experience driving the CC at such a big event. Does the event have a website or a flier you can post as it sounds like a very interesting idea. BTW, That helmet is great!:headbang:

    1996 B&W's worth more than 97's......

    In the future the 96's might be worth more but up until now I don't see it. I would have bought either one but looking back am glad I went with the 96 as it is an instant classic. I would say, if you can get a 96 with 10k miles for $45 I would jump on it. I would think it should be closer to...

    An SVS Story - pix

    The problem is, what percentage of Viper owners read this forum? 30%, 20%??? I would say a vast majority of owners never read any forums. That is how these shops stay in business. Think of H, he just built a huge brand new shop even though he is banned from here. It just shows that this is...

    Best Motoring (Japan) - Gen 1 Test Video

    Who looses to a NSX in a drag race? That is the most rediculous part of the whole video! I also can't believe they were making fun of the plastic cross hatch in the front bumper. The Japanese invented the plastic front bumper. I did think it was funny how they cracked up looking at the...

    640 rwhp = 130 mph Trap Speed???

    I put my car on the scale with Blower and Meth and it weighed 3375. You loose the weight of the stock intake manifold so I think it only adds about 50 lbs. My guess is that a stock car would weigh 3325.

    640 rwhp = 130 mph Trap Speed???

    134 is very health. Did you change anything on your setup?

    96 White/Blue GTS

    I second that! I thought it was due to the painting expense.

    Surprising HP on Dyno

    22-25 % loss... You must have an AWD Viper, which is rather rare. I think what the dyno operator was trying to convey is that his type of dyno needs to use a 22% correction factor to equal the crank numbers from a dynojet. IE, that his dyno produces lower numbers than that of a dynojet...

    Back from the Dyno!!! 635 rwhp

    My guess is Roe, as I doubt a 640rwtq peak paxton car would make 540rwtq at 2100 rpms.

    97 gts with silver sparkle wheels???

    The picture posted is of the "sparkle" wheels. They look almost like a matte finish from 10 feet away as shown in the picture. If you kneel down and are 1 foot away they have some metalic flake in the paint.

    97 gts with silver sparkle wheels???

    I have seen a few GTS's with the silver wheels. I saw a B/W in LI with them. I think they might be "rare" as they are the base wheel. However most Viper's came with the polished wheels which really look a lot better.

    Forgeline wheels finally arrived

    1 vote for the black chrome. I hope it turns out a bit darker than the picture you posted as that looks like grey chrome.

    Can you spot what is out of place?

    Looks like they cut the bottom of the front fascia off.

    re: Roe S/C for Gen III's coming soon????

    Re: Roe S/C for Gen III's coming soon???? I think what people are trying to say is do not put estimated HP in your sig as it is missleading. A lot of people like to learn from other people's mods and actual dyno numbers. Estimating numbers does not help people and actually spreads...

    VEC and extension serial cable,

    I extended each wire individually, making one long DB9 cable. I do not see the need for the DB9 outside of the car. The in car cable can be made long enough to hang out of the window if needed. I use the ground bolt behind the front tire for all grounding.

    900 hp Paxton or TT?

    Exactly!!! If you think your ~485wheel is scary do not even think about 900wheel. Honestly, you have no idea what that number actually represents in brutal acceleration. Get a base Paxton kit and put down 620wheel. That is over 700 crank and you will be very pleased.

    Add me to the list of blown Aldan shocks. Lasted about 250 miles.

    Genetics? :dunno: PheonixGTS - Thanks for the updated, I want to get a set of Aldan's due to price but your story make me weary.

    Don Sleik "The Go To Guy For Vipers"

    Wow, less than 200 miles! That is a new car. :2tu: I am surprised you did not switch it up for a Gen3 Vert just to try something new.

    Back at home!

    Great looking car! :2tu: What fascia and rims are those?

    Need ideas on color to powdercoat the intake and valve covers

    Phil, I am surprised you are even asking this question. Plum Crazy Purple would look very hot on a silver car. Or you could see if you could get the paint code for the new Viper Violet.

    It Wasn't My Time

    Wow! I just saw this post and I am so relieved you were able to walk away without a scratch. Things like this can happen at any time and it is all to sobering. I hope you do purchase an 08 to turn these lemons into lemonade. I do not think that there is a nicer individual in the Viper community...
