    Why do you like stripes vs no stripes on your Viper?

    jkracer9 and Kelly T have 2 of the best looking GTS's I have ever seen. Red with white GTS also looks very good, and the blue with white is also amazing. Black with silver is better than straight black, but silver with blue... doesn't do it for me. RT10s look just as good with or without...

    Australian Viper Spotted

    Saw an Australian (plain red) GTS cruising around near Brighton Chrysler today. Noted: 1. Wheels look 96 GTS with the center hubs (weren't they the weak ones?) 2. Hood corner not rounded 3. Conversion looks good, but room in the new driver's side looks cramped 4. Apparently it has adjustable...

    DLM Level IV Pro dyno sheet

    You left the scale on the graph, so now we have a good idea what the peak is. And these posts are annoying.

    harley V rod calling me out !!!!!!

    Jesus... that is fast. I stand corrected. I think the poster would still be safe... chances of coming across a rider like that are pretty low. I've been riding a while, through a few bikes.. currently I have a TLR I'm planning on turning into a track bike (road race not drag)... love that...

    harley V rod calling me out !!!!!!

    (assuming he is stock) 1/4: best driver will win. probably you if you can pull a low 12. 1 mile: if you happen to lose the 1/4, you will overtake him before 1/2. ZX12: Please show me a high 9s stock (or with pipes/ecu etc) 600. I've never seen that. Only bikes I've ever seen break into the 9s...

    Porsche 996 race.... for 5,000 potentially!!!

    What will you see under the hood of a Porsche? heh heh. But seriously, race him for a few hundred - the suspense is killing me. Just say the wife doesn't like you running for big $ any more... or you're broke at the moment but would like to race anyway... or whatever. If you don't want to...

    "Reskinning" an Aluminum Manifold when Restoring?

    Re: \"Reskinning\" an Aluminum Manifold when Restoring? Not sure if this is the finish you are after, but anodizing will give you the hard uniform thick oxide layer. If you just leave polished aluminum it will get a hazy oxide layer by itself. Anodizing isnt *that* hard to do, and turns...

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    Hood, fascia, three (possibly unavailable except at high prices from private sellers ) wheels, windshield, 3 tyres, quarter work, paint, any under car damage, LABOR...... Man, this thing has got to be getting close to a write off if you convince them about new panels and depreciation.

    My Ultimate Kill Story

    Yep.. sounds just like a writer for an auto magazine to me. Sometimes I wonder "where do these guys come up with this ?!".. You watch tv shows and the way they review some cars is just so wierd - I guess it's from having driven that many different cars and trying to rate them, they just go a bit...

    HMS 1000HP TT on Ebay

    I thought this was a CUSTOMER'S car he built into the 1000hp Super Jumpin Johnny ? So why is John selling it ? And the description lists it as a Viper Ferrari - maybe he's not sure what kind of car he was even working on

    NSX -- talkin smack.

    I remember an Acura concept car from the NY motor show.. had a 3.5L vtec with like 400 claimed hp.. DNX or something.. had electric motors too or something.. and I believe one had 4 doors...? Wonder if it'll go into production..? Still no competition though. NSX is a nice car, but way WAY...

    Gen I & II Prices going to skyrocket?

    I agree with MtHam ACR.. down down down. Come on guys, it's used cars!! Surely you aren't suggesting 0-10 year old used cars are a good investment?!?! I've got a bridge to sell you.... I think a new model will ALWAYS help push the prices down too. Hoping (sorry) for at least a 10% to 15% fall...

    WHY NOT A TARGA TOP FOR GTS????

    The rear deck/hatch area and the lip spoiler! I would also like to see one of these.. GTS looks meaner, but ain't nothing like having a convertible on sunny days. F1 cars don't have roofs and they go alright

    Of course, the 2003 styling makes sense now.

    IMHO it looks even worse in person. This just explains it. Holy hell.. I can't believe they did it! I personally like the S2000 up close better than the SRT! Honestly, the **** thing looks plastic. Oh, and that sketch... the headlights look like the new Celica.. did he have anything to do with...

    Viper RCS (Radar Cross-Section) is ?

    Do they really have to hit your front plate? I wouldn't think they could do that with any car... it moves around so much? Like trying to shoot a sparrow with a handgun. ???

    Amplifiers

    LTHL.. Rock on! I am doing that at the moment to my beater over here in the UK.. don't wanna have to look at the scenery while touring Europe! Out of interest, what kind of glasses have you got in there?

    25 Vipers coming to Australia

    Yeah, about 20 grand US.. the cars are apparently going to go for about 250,000 aussie dollars.. about 130k USD. Plus they will probably all be sold pretty much instantly (there are at least 10 collectors I can think of who would be seriously considering garage queening them - oh well, less on...

    25 Vipers coming to Australia

    OUCH. I'm not too knowledgeable on the whole compliance thing (yet), but as I understand there are 2 kinds of plates.. low vol and personal.. is the personal any easier (cheaper) for me? Sorry if I am asking rude questions that wont earn you money ;-) The main thing I am worried about is the...

    25 Vipers coming to Australia

    How much would it cost to get you to do the compliance plate and conversion if I import my own? I am thinking of buying my cousin's Viper and bringing it over.. I have seen ads for kits in QLD as low as $5500.. but who attaches the plate? What will the parts support be like? Who do you get to...

    Heh.. I remember the commercial but I didn't remember it being a SRT... shows how attention grabbing the SRT is(n't).
