I'm aware the side sills are currently aluminum, but i've seen the aftermarket ones out there for $750 or so a piece made of fiberglass.
Looking for feedback on if those make any sense ?
Would a 3/16" fiberglass quarter panel hold up to the driving of these cars, as compared to the current...
So after regrettably selling my viper last year, i have been starting to look for another and can't get over the cost of body panels to repair a damaged one.
I met with an associate who does fiberglass molds today to check out his operation, and was wondering if there is any demand for say a...
Alright i drove by it today on the way to the fair with the inlaws, Its called modena south bound and plattekill north bound. Should be a nice ride.
I'll be perched on the on ramp by 1030, im sure you guys are quick, but i think you've got at least 15 minutes between sloatsburg and plattekill :nono:
I like them on your color combo, id take your HRE's, chrome them, and slap them on mine. If i keep my car through the winter i'll be shopping for new wheels versus buying new tires for stock wheels.
By the way, I see that VR4 peeking out of the garage....Ahhh my first love, never gets old...Is...
Yea people are out for the summer driving around, i'll possibly have to put mine up in next 2-3 weeks. County is having a tax sale and depends what the property i want goes for, may have to end one dream to start another. Being buried in the viper would make for a pretty good story though..lol
Hmm I guess i'm just that "lucky"....May not help that my car has 50k on it, who the hell knows
Just seems like such an odd issue to be dealing with, i'll get the answer to the most recent problem on thursday when we change that FPR out and go back on the dyno, and see if the guage stays strong...
So this guy goes through the car, and turns out the rubber fuel line had blown itself off the pump. Either a loose hose clamp, too much restriction with the elbow, or voltage increase from the BAP. Either way i blew the line off the pump. So he gets the proper line installed, and removes the...
Tow truck time
Great....100 miles later this is the view i get.
Driving around enjoying the car, waiting on my appt a few days later to get tuned again, bob and weave doing 50-70mph and i roll up to a light and start loosing power. Yup..out of fuel. Roll to the corner just in time for the...
Ok so i'll break this into a couple posts so you can share in my suspense..
Alright so i received the 400lph walbro from RSi and install kit a few weeks ago. Tator's was backlogged with work and being my impatient self, i had someone else put it in. This car had the original fuel pump, BAP...
July 29: Upstate Breakfast/Brunch
What's the story with this ? I haven't seen a thread or an email unless i missed it...Idk any of the info on this event and wanted to figure out my weekend plans !
Ahh im waiting on my tuner to get back from vacation, i live about 20 minutes away. I can't drag, but can drive normal and may come by and watch/eat/hang out if thats allowed without paying up ?
As far as i know so far, this thing has an Arrow Racing Built motor, diamond forged pistons, gen 1 cam, port and polished heads etc...i verified it was built with arrow and installed in 2011, but i have not yet gotten the build sheet from Arrow so i do not know the specs for sure. I'll sling the...
So in your opinion do you think i'm going to run into more fuel issues running the green top injectors trying to get to the mid 600's ? I'm not sure what fuel pressure i would need to support 9.5 pounds of boost at 5600rpm. I know with the new pump i will be able to keep up with injector demand...
Edit - Just ordered from them for $170 shipped, a couple dollars higher but worth it for a specialty shop, ordered an inline filter oem replacement from partsgeek for $27 shipped as RSI didn't have any on hand, and dealer is backordered 3 weeks. Got your pm as well, now we will see if i end up...

That's the link the the 400lph some specs on it. It's $25 cheaper on amazon, but they don't have as many specs listed on there.
I'm going to change the filter regardless, as i don't know when it was done.
If i can have the pump...
Sure seems that way, the car came to me like that and i didn't think twice until now. I guess i will order the new pump then.
If im getting good pressure through 4k rpms, should i even wait on the back ordered fuel filter to install the pump ?
Do i need to order a fuel pressure regulator for...
Yea im not too big a fan of dropping $5k for the same size wheels, in a different style. I've looked around a bit since i'll likely need tires soon anyway, but haven't found any worth pulling the trigger for. Plus, not everyone gets to enjoy their Viper year round like some people :D
So i just went to get my GTS tuned for the first time, has a Roe w/8lb, all the bolts ons, W/M (not used for this tune) and the MSD voltage up box hooked to the stock fuel pump.
At 4000 rpm or so, its putting down 535rwhp and 600rwtq and the charts inc A/F look good i believe they were mid...
I got the valve cover letters/logos and i believe they were around $100. Quality is ok, seems like they packaged them too long ago so i have a little funkiness on the surface from the sealant in the plastic. Actually meant to send them an email about that, thanks for the reminder !
They have the...
Yea it was a tough decision in the beginning, but the fact this this car has a fresh, upgraded engine from Arrow last year sealed the deal. Didn't hurt that i shook the guy down pretty good on his price to make it worth it, and it was an hour away, as compared to the stock one i was looking at...
The weather up here for last couple days has been 95+, then dropping to 85+ for the weekend, then back to mid/high 70's next week, which will be the normal temperature for this time of year. So the normal driving temperature for the car will be 65-75 outside, ideally, so he understandably...
