    Dry Sump

    I wonder if an Accusump would suffice without going full dry sump? -David

    Comp Coupe help???

    In addition to the reasons listed above, it might be worth mentioning the Comp Coupe spring rates are much higher than the ACR and the Tilton clutch/flywheel combo function like a light switch. I cannot imagine stopped in bumper to bumper traffic on a hill with a street car in front, the tilton...

    Comp Coupe help???

    The Comp Coupe to ACR comparisons I have read are based on a VRL spec and not WC spec Comp Coupe. In my opinion, to compete with a WC Comp Coupe the ACR would need race seat, headers, ecu, shock upgrade to Motons/Penske with heavier springs, spherical bearing in suspension, and Hoosier tires.

    SSG ACR conversion

    Thanks Tom, Brackets worked great and fit perfect. I was surprised to find a round rubber plug above each wheel well that was large enough to pass the Motons thru without cutting the car. All I had to do was drill a small hole in the rubber plug for the remote line and then dremel the bottom...

    SSG ACR conversion

    I am very happy with the wheels, I feel looks are subjective, but I felt the SSG color required a wild wheel selection. I liked the look of the car with all 3 wheel combinations, polished 5 spoke, black ACR, and SSG forgelines. To me though the car is most memorable with the SSG wheels and I...

    SSG ACR conversion

    I could not be more impressed so far with these shocks, they improve the street ride and the track performance over the ACR KW's plus they add easy access to the compression adjusters. These shocks alone make the ACR a more comfortable street car, while apparently not sacrificing performance. On...

    SSG ACR conversion

    I am optimistic that the green wheels will look good, I do agree though that a black driver's side stripe would look great.

    SSG ACR conversion

    I did not receive any instructions beyond a basic one page diagram that shows where the screws and rivets go. The install took about 24 man hrs. I used my 09 ACR as the template car, jacking it up, making measurements and seeing how Prefix installed the parts. The holes for the rear wing are the...

    SSG ACR conversion

    I think the SRT-10 quadcab truck might stand a better chance, but hook a 10 ton trailer to both trucks and the 5500 will smoke the SRT-10. You might need to adjust your braking points for turns 1,7, and 17. That 5500 is really going to shine loaded, but I doubt you will throw down the SRT-10 for...

    SSG ACR conversion

    Currently the race setup is already ordered in the green center. To me the green is already an "overkill" color so I felt like subtle was not possible to achieve. I am interested to see how they look on the car. -David

    SSG ACR conversion

    I choose the Motons because I liked the remote cannisters and wanted to compare their performance to the KW's. I choose a higher spring rate for the Moton setup so that maybe a factor as well. I think the Motons should work great. The NARRA event at Sebring will be the 1st time out with the car...

    SSG ACR conversion

    Just an FYI: If you plant to install this kit you must have an ACR to take measurements from. You have to cut the front fascia and drill holes in the rear trunk that require lots of time to properly locate. I had to remove the wing from my ACR to make a template for the SSG. -David

    SSG ACR conversion

    Factory ACR aero kit. I was thinking about a black driver's side stripe. How difficult is to remove the Viper SRT-10 silver lettering behind the front tires, because the kit came with ACR logos. -David

    SSG ACR conversion

    Neither Viper is a daily car, I do not feel comfortable parking them in public areas out of my sight. We have a 300C SRT-8 and Powerwagon truck for running around town. I actually prefer the way the ACR feels compared to a standard Viper on the highway, but I do prefer the PS2's for the street...

    SSG ACR conversion

    I decided that risking a VIN# matching "real" ACR on track might be something I would regret later. The SSG ACR is going to be a better setup for the track. Basically I wanted a car I could enjoy at NARRA events and other HPDE events. Eventually I would like to get a Comp Coupe. -David

    Just completed the 1st step in making my SSG into an ACR: Next step is to added these with Hoosier R6's: Also adding Motons, Stoptech aerorotors, ACR front swaybar with greaseable bushing and adjustable endlinks, Team Tech 6 points, and a few other items next week. -David
