you'd be very lucky if you ever see a viper out on the road (i.e. outside a racetrack) in UK.... but that's one very special thing about it. you've got the rare amazing, unique sports car that alot of others would be chuffed to have even caught a glimpse of (i was when i only saw one in 20 days...
er... the orig block was a (standard 90dgree) 5.9ltr V8 and Lutz persisted with the idea to add 2 extra cyclinders (don't know how they arrived at 7990cc when 5900cc/8= 738...). Portions of 2 V8s were brazed together and apparently the resultant V10 ran much smoother than predicted (optimum for...
hmmm, thanks for thoughts....it's only so my rt'll look even better on my supersize mantel! if they get really damaged, i'll just start searching again, but haven't seen any other wheel type yet that really stands out.....
does anyone have either of these wheel types on their viper? considering either, but want black spoke and silver/polished rim (is that an option?). also interested to know the recess measurement - front and back - VR1s seem to be similar front and back. want to find a set that really emphasize...
by the time these cars become classic collectables, fuel prices will be unaffordable if they carry on at the present hiking rate. they'll only be collectable by museums, so forget selling a low mileage example for a profit 20 years in the future!
aside from that, the Tiger isn't getting so...
taken a look all the way through this thread and it's amazing: no-one's put any of the NorCal Viper plates up! When i got to Danville's Hot Summer Nights event in Aug06, i was bowled over by the range of brilliant plates you guys had in the snake pit corner of the show!:
+ an...
salts on the road here in south UK but hopefully drizzle today's washed some of it away.... 12C (50ish F?). need a decent downpour before a few vipers here get on to the track at silverstone booked for 15th december ;) .....first trackday's gonna be..... fun!!
16000 miles,
1100 of them since purchase 2 months ago... and that's just at the weekends!
south UK roads will probably see first ice next week so will have to leave it alone most of the time.... + my insurance limits me to 3000miles/year.... think i'll be re-newing at 6months!! :D
would say...
name that sound:
mike's dark blue viper

@ 4.00 / 5.35 / 7.35 etc
could it be just a straight forward corsa with the heads, cam, cold air induction making it sound this good!??
(want!)
nb anyone name the music tracks also?!!
;)
needed a new medallion down at the club :bling:
after seeing my friends comp coupe tearing up the opposition on most uk circuits and aiming my vid cam mostly at it's front end coming through the track corners, i find the fangs just looks much more supreme and sinister than the sneaky...
just replaced my back and side stock reds with editted gen 3 black decals....tis nice!
sneaky pete badges are gone too - only fangs for me
...on the only red and black in the uk yay! :D
now that the 'how-to apply stripes' has disappeared, can anyone who's done the long job themselves please offer advice on getting the 8" wide stripes around the fascia and trunk/back bumper curves (on an RT)??
thanks
;)
now the same thing.
well, started anyway today before the rain came using the snippets of info i could remember, the old initiative and a few enthusiastic buddies! 'spose i could write my own when finished.... that is if anyone else is into zebra stripes......!
what range of clearance height drop can be achieved on say a 2002 RT w/ OEM wheels & tires (with just spring adjustments)?
0 - 1"?
curious as it may be first on my list when i get my hands on the beast soon :)
