    SSR wheel on ACR?

    It's probably the easiest mod I've done to my 2005. First you get the car up & take the wheels off. Take off the frame mounting tabs for the E-brake cables. Disconnect the cables at the caliper. Remove the lever part of the caliper and stash it away in a box. Bolt on the Aluminum E-brake...

    Pressure sensor

    I believe mine have the wrong type for my 2005, it dings once after a few seconds, then the low tire indicator is showing on odometer readout. Though, once it dinged me all the way into work, one ding every 10 seconds or so for 20 minutes non-stop. I checked the presure and everything was...

    Who's going to Sebring in a couple weeks?

    I want to come out and watch you guys at Sebring is only about 2 hours from me. My question is, do I just drive out and buy a ticket there, or is there some VCA "mingle" pass that can be purchased ahead of time?

    Gen IV Speaker Replacement Project

    Correct, to get the factory back panel off, you have some major disassembly ahead of you. I recently installed an autoform rollbar so I just went through the process. Though, you will be removing a lot less just to get to the center speaker enclosure. While I suppose it can be done with the...

    Any VA guys ever see this one on the road?

    Definately wins for the most uses of the word "Custom" in an Ebay add, by my count... 25 :)

    $100,500 1999 Rt/10 ?

    The car check link indicates one owner... I suspect it will remain that way until some estate sale many years from now :)

    It pays to install an Autoform!

    You know, I've done a lot of wrenching on this car in the past 6 months. I installed headers/exahust, motor mounts, shifter, coilovers, and today this autoform rollbar. I don't mind installing stuff really, but the ammount of crap you have to go through to install *anything* on this car sucks...

    It pays to install an Autoform!

    Update: The find under the passenger seat was not as good. Two pennies, a bic pen, a purple mini bic lighter, and what looks like the top half of a beef jerky bag. LOL

    It pays to install an Autoform!

    So, I bought an Autoform rollbar for my 2005 last summer. I've been busy and out off town (4 months in Afghanistan) a lot the last year, so I'm just getting around to installing this weekend. I put the car up on stands, and removed the drivers seat. I found a total of $4.14 in change, a...

    Lundqvist has bought his viper! She was "born" December 18th 2009!! Black Mamba

    Ever since I lowered my car, I just can't stand the stock ride hight on normal vipers... To me, it looks like the ass end is jacked up like a 70s muscle car :)

    Value of a Hennessey Viper 1000, 2006

    It doesn't matter and he wouldn't care anyway as he cannot post here to defend himself. The exposure of this site comared to Motortrend or Car&Driver is negligable. Probably less than 200 people will ever view this thread. As a result, the *crewing will continue unabated.

    Looking at trying / buying a Viper........

    The Aero Package is a factory option, not many people get that option I believe. It's not as much real downforce as a full out ACR, but it is functional & not completely poser :)

    Looking at trying / buying a Viper........

    The "Limited Edition" vipers are typically just specific color combos and accents with a plaque stating the number out of the number produced. In my case, I have a 2005 Copperhead. The special edition is because only 300 of this color were produced in 2005. It has orange stiching in the...

    Value of a Hennessey Viper 1000, 2006

    If they want to sell it now, they would seriously consider all offers. The alternative is to throw it up on Flee-Bay and have it languish there for months/years fending off all the wacked out wanna-be bidders on a daily basis.

    Value of a Hennessey Viper 1000, 2006

    What's a UGR or similar build on an 03, ballpark (with motor work) like 35 - 40K ??? If it's around there, you could pick up an 03 for $39,000 here on our classifieds, drop another 40K on a quality & warrantied system for about the same as your thinking of offering. If it were me... I'd...

    Help!!! need some opinions on the viper for my next car

    Ok, I'm biting... Bought an 05 two years ago with 5,600 miles on it. Never even sat in a Viper before I bought it. The closest thing to a "sports" car I'd ever owned before was a POS 82 Camaro. Likes, It's wicked crazy fast. Torque like an elephant. I have no fear working on it...
