    Cash discount?

    I'm a US citizen but have lived in Australia for years and years. I know a few other ex pats over here as well. We are all apparently supposed to be putting in tax returns with Uncle Sam.. how ridiculous is that? I live over here and pay the stupid high tax rates here, and I don't use ANY...

    Sport Compact Car Magazine Ultimate Street Car Challenge Base Price

    Heh heh one man's crappy time is another man's dream life. Oh, to have a Viper and many local Hooters. Sure I'm supercharging the Lexus, but you can't get steak at the strip joint, and even if the car could pick them up, I'm not sure that would be even a remotely good thing. Of course when I do...

    Sport Compact Car Magazine Ultimate Street Car Challenge Base Price

    Hey man don't knock it.. the nearest Hooters to me is like 1000 miles away, and I don't even have a Viper to tear apart. So for me, it's tear apart the ricer, and go to the titty bars. Small world.

    Tell them it's one of those Viper-on-a-Camaro kits, and demand a recount. What the hell did the Skyline guy expect in the car show section? Over here the roads are literally littered with Skylines, and let me tell you, that is a piss-poor looking one from the shot I saw.

    Ultimate street car update

    Haha great call Jr! :) Looks to me like they have some problems if they give one Viper 100 one year and 33 the next in the driveability category. Maybe for n2o-like traction supercharged guys need to hold their bypass valves open all the way through first and have it close gently once in...

    Twin turbo Ferrari 512TR

    Nexus, that was what I first thought when I read the subject "Carmack!"... you guys know him? Reads like an interesting guy.. becomes successful and actually spends it on good stuff - hardass tuned Ferraris and now his own space company getting ready to launch! If I ever made it big.. that's the...

    Looking to buy lowest mile best condition 97 Blue White GTS

    So there are cars out there for high 30s? Are we talking gen2.. preferably RT? I don't mind miles, I will put plenty on myself. I don't mind scratches - the car is going to be butchered to right hand drive so a paint job doesn't bother me either. Keep in mind I have to pay upwards of 60% tax on...

    whats up with this Viper on Ebay??

    So is that an average price for a 98 with less than 39k? Or are you saying they can have a shot? So is a 98 with that many miles expected to go for $35-40k? I want an RT, and don't care about mileage.. I'm exporting the car to Australia, and will put plenty on it anyway.. I just didn't realise...

    Fuel pump upgrade

    Depending on the fuel pressure you want to run, the Walbro 255 l/h can get really good flow.. boosting you will need decent pressure, and 2 Walbros are better than one.. http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/fuel_pumps_test/pump_test.jpg

    The box that has the pipe coming out of it, that goes to the TBs. I was thinking either air-water IC, or a chamber?

    Calling out a stock Gen II Viper

    I thought the Enzo runs 11.0, with the stock GTS at 11.7? Then the stock Z06 mid 12s? Sounds like about the same distance between the two pairs of cars to me? Half to three quarters IMHO isn't a "destroy"...

    Standalone engine management

    Over here to get a car with stand-alone legal, we take it to an engineer accredited by our version of the DMV.. he then issues an Engineer's Certificate and it is deemed to be roadworthy, safe and registerable. However our current emissions laws are, I believe... uh... "you gotta leave the cat...

    Standalone engine management

    Ron, I know plenty of cars running speed density that don't need a complete remap on volumetric efficiency changes.. sure, if you change it wildly, you are going to need to, but you will with mass flow as well. For the smaller changes, piggy back does WOT and closed loop does the rest.. for the...

    Standalone engine management

    Apparently there are several Vipers running Autronic SM2s. Their lower model, the SMC, would probably do the same job for street drivers - the SM2 has all of the extra racing features like launch control, traction control and MoTeC dash compatibility. The SMC is priced quite low.. about one...

    Viper Owners, Quit your whining

    The tail lights on the SRT do remind me of the tail lights on the SL class Mercedes... (that's not a bad thing either, I like it)

    Viper Owners, Quit your whining

    Yeah, the guy is saying Viper owners are against progress... uhh wrong! How many threads have we seen lately saying "SRT brakes to Gen 2?"... or "SRT heads onto Gen 2?"... or "We need a decent top like the SRT!" I don't recall one person saying "It has better brakes... and for that it is a...
