I am thinking about going a different route with the appearance of my GTS. I am thinking about putting on flat black stripes and getting some all black rims...probably flat black or semi. I would greatly appreciate any pics that you guys may have of yours or some Vipers set up like this. Really...
I have the cat delete and the wrap kit from roe with no corrosion issues at all. This is because the cats are off the car. If you put the cats back on and wrap them, you will ruin them just like others have said.
If you want my suggestion, I would leave the cats off, wrap the side sill...
Re: I know I'm in for a world of bashing, but what are your thoughts of an LSX motor.
If you are talking about 1200 HP + then maybe. But, you can build an LSX motor that will handle around 1000 HP for less than half of a Viper motor rebuild. Parts are much cheaper (even the best quality...
Re: I know I'm in for a world of bashing, but what are your thoughts of an LSX motor.
Hmmm, very disturbing...BUT, very interesting at the same time. As much as you would never hear the end of it, from a STRICTLY PERFORMANCE standpoint, it could actually be somewhat of an advantage. Hear me...
You are kind of right, I should have been more specific. GM spent 2 weeks at the ring with the ZR1. However, out of the two weeks spent there, only one day was reserved for running the full laps to see what it would run. The other time was spent tuning the car to get it ready for production...
That is my feeling as well. I just can't believe how much against people are on here against the Vette. Yeah GM took a team over there but they both only got 1 day on the ring. Dodge hired a professional race car driver, GM used it's engineer. It doesn't matter, both cars are amazing and...
It's obvious you don't understand the difference between a pilot sport 2 and a pilot sport cup. Two completely different tires. Different compound, different purpose, and 220-100 treadwear rating. Oh and BTW, pilot sport 2 and pilot sport cups were around long before the 08 Viper. The cup is...
:lmao: This is why you are so entertaining. If you don't think the ZR1 would have made up 4 seconds with the cups on then you are an idiot...old man.
You are right, I was off a little on the difference. Thought the ZR1 was 7:25. As far as prep for the track, well, I'm sure that Dodge and...
First off cupcake, you can't even properly quote someone so the I would stop assuming that you are smarter than anyone, especially me.:lmao:
Second, and again, you really don't know what you are talking about. The ZR1 is 3 seconds slower than the ACR around the ring and the ACR had over a...
Grand Nationals are sweetcars Toronto! My friend had one a couple years ago. Was a show and go car. He ran a mid 10 in it. Not bad for a V6!! What year was yours?
Thats a good question toronto. Like I said, you are going to need a really good coil-over setup, most people that road race get the moton (spelling?), then you will need a front splitter and a rear wing that is fully functional. Finally, you will need to upgrade to a big brake kit. I don't...
That is ugly...BUT...if you could buy that car close to the bidding now and put it back to stock for a few grand...it wouldn't be a bad deal. Figure around 25K for a clear title 99 car?
Actually, the guy that is re-chroming my CCW's out in CA has a set that he says are in mint condition. However, they might be the 18's. If you want I can put you in contact with him.
Not sure about your location, but IMHO, get the white stripes. I've seen Red GTS's right next to each other, one with white, one with silver stripes and the one with white looked 10X better.
If you go back and re-read the thread, it wasn't about any of that. The guy just wanted his car to perform like a new ACR and was wondering what it took to get his engine there.
Besides, it all comes down to driver experience. Those cars you are speaking of and your "guessing game" of...
If you want to equal/exceed the same performance as a new ACR, then you will need a few things.
- Moton suspension
- Functional front splitter
- Functional rear wing
- Big brake kit
- Head/cam/tuning
- All accompying boltons (headers, catback, CAI, etc)
- Perhaps some bigger diameter...
Did a search but didn't really turn up much. I am going to be changing out my fluids on my car soon and was going to get the Mobil 1 75/140 rear end fluid with the Mopar additive. On the tranny, I was thinking about putting in royal purple syncromesh.
My question is, are these fluids okay...
It depends on what tracks you were at. If you ran at 5000FT with 50 degree and 0 humidity outside in the middle of November, you would still be running much slower than if you were at sea level at 100 degrees with humidity in July. The odds might have been good...remember, temperature is only...
Right, and HUNDREDS of times your conditions were not that bad...and it has little to do with the temp. I can bet you any amount of money that you wish to bet. If your car was taken up to a DA of 5000 FT, you would trap NO WHERE close to 130. Please understand that I am not arguing the fact...
