    Graphite Metallic SRT10 anyone? Sneak Preview!

    Hey guys! Thanks for the compliments :) Guess most compliments are due to Jeff, but I definitely agree on the "dayum"s. Heck yeah! Treesnake: It is good to know that I will be making it to VOI in a Viper :D Just hoping that the new wheels get here on time! How's your 'serpent doing?

    Graphite Metallic SRT10 anyone? Sneak Preview!

    Ever since I saw this color on a Viper back in 2001, I fell in love :) What it used to look like:

    2008 Double clutch reliability ?

    Funny you mention that, in some European cars, pedal feel such as the gas pedal (in the old days literally the throttle body spring) was carefully selected to give the right "sporty" feeling. The harder the feel, the more "powerful" the car felt. Same with the heaviness of the steering wheel...

    2008 Double clutch reliability ?

    Thanks for the detailed answer Dan, however, could you elaborate more on the "other problems"? I know that light flywheels allow engines to spool down very quickly too and this could be a problem on slower upshifts.. Or are you talking about problems when getting the car moving from a stop (say...

    2008 Double clutch reliability ?

    Dan, sorry to hijack the thread, but it's turning out to be very informative. Read the review of the Tilton carbon multi-plate clutches on your site, and saw the mention of flywheels; light vs heavy. Is a light flywheel that bad on Street car? Perhaps is it dangerous because it is much thinner?

    2008 Double clutch reliability ?

    Here's an exploded photo of a clutch for a Jap car: The plates are held in place by the housing along with the spacers and the spline gear. The housing is also part of the flywheel. It is all bolted together to the pressure plate and the whole unit spins. Individual parts inside do not spin...

    '08 Bellanger Exhaust Sound

    Perhaps a dumb question: Would a cruising '08 not sound very much like a Gen 3? I am asking this 'coz I too have grown tired of loud "cruise" exhausts, and am looking for a good "compromise" exhaust. I suppose the addition of the belanger headers makes little/no sound difference?

    Carbon Fiber Valve Covers - Gen 3

    Thanks for the info vegas. By any chance do you have photos of them on your car? I take it the GTS R valve covers fit on the Gen 3s?

    Viper online parts catalogs?

    If anyone would be so kind as to send me the 2005 one, I would really appreciate it. I already have all the service manuals from Chrysler, but this is a whole new document that would undoubtedly come in useful!

    Carbon Fiber Valve Covers - Gen 3

    Been searching through the forum and on the the good ol' 'net and can't seem to find these. I swear they used to exist and have seem then in a photo before, and they looked amazing. In old posts I found, DC's site and Archer's site were listed as stocking them , but I can't seem to find them...

    Graphite Bezel?

    Thanks for the tip! Update: they replied that they have it listed on their site and on ebay, however, I can only find the "painted carbon fiber effect" one. Don't think that they understood..

    Graphite Bezel?

    Anyone make these out of real carbon fiber? I have seen the Mopar ones, and frankly they look too "fake".

    Power vs Gearing

    Not to hijack the thread (very informative so far), but assuming we stick to black mamba1's mod list, i.e. NA power, is there merit in changing the diff ratio? I ask, because where I am, the car has to appear stock (supercharger sticks out a little).. ;) Street & Freeway driving, and the...

    Parking...

    Pardon my ignorance, this is my first VOI :-) What is happening regarding parking? I asked for parking at the MGM and never heard from them. Detroit is a nice place and all, but my Viper is my baby, and I don't think I'll be able to sleep at night if it's not safely parked somewhere..!
