What did you do to your viper today?

[yzf1999]

This is absolutely the most beautiful car I’ve ever seen…I feel blessed to be its caretaker.

Dropped off a used GTS fuel door for chrome powder coating. The chrome MGW with Sneaky Pete ornament is what came with the car. The MGW fuel door is definitely a nice piece, but I always preferred the look of the factory unit. Can't wait to get it back and swap them out.

OEM is not chromed which I guess/hope you know.

That cost of supplies to take the clear off, buff it out, reapply clear, then ceramic coat it would have put me most of the way towards the cost of powdercoating it. The "chrome" poweder coat I was shown has a satin quality to it giving it just a little more shine than polished OEM. Close enough for me, and I shouldn't ever have to think about it again being powdercoated.

Carshow day for me. Northwest Art and Air Festival near the Albany Airport in Oregon. Fangs won First Place in "1970 and Newer", which was totally unexpected because there were so many nice cars in those later years. I guess it's because Vipers are so rare at carshows, unlike Corvettes...

What did I do to my Viper today? Same thing I do every day. Stare at it lovingly and count my blessings.

 

[RCR88]

Mounted new Gen V ACR wheels on Toyo's, smoked the headlights and fogs, removed chrome badges and replaced with decals.

 

[yzf1999]

To me black wheels look the best on a red R/T 10….beautiful car.

 

[yzf1999]

Changed the oil and filter last week…now that it’s up for the winter I’ll put it on the lift so I can work on it during the winter.

 

[MrWoolery]

Bought/paid for it. Now just awaiting it getting shipped to me

Wife and I took ours on a drive. Drove about 60 miles on Natchez Trace here in TN. Weather was beautiful and Leaf colors were amazing.

We took the Viper out for a spirited drive

 

[MrWoolery]

-Bought a set of Gen5 Rattler wheels
-Ordered a set of tires for said wheels
-Started researching coilover options (deciding between MCS, KW, or Nitrons)
-Wired up a quick disconnect for a battery tender, accessible through driver's side fender opening.
-Changed the shift knob to a simple stainless steel ball
-Changed the HVAC knobs back to OEM
-Read the owner's manual for the first time
-Set up the radio (time, station presets)
-Went for a drive

 

[yzf1999]

Ordered a set of VTForged GT-C wheels today. Will have a set of Chrome Gen5 Rattlers for sale in a few months if anyone is interested.

 

[yzf1999]

Spent the last couple days detailing the undercarriage…next up is new drilled rotors and low dust ceramic pads. The stock Brembo pads make a stupid amount of break dust all over the car.

 

[yzf1999]

Got the suspension and undercarriage degreased and detailed to like new condition…also changed out the brake pads to EBC ceramic dustless Redstuff pads front and rear. Also changed out the rotors to stoptech drilled rotors. Now I just need to change the fluid and bleed all four corners.

[36general]

Figured out how to reduce file size.. VT Forged 19x10 & 19x13

Nice looking wheel …these are the ones I ordered. I’m changing out the white stripes on my car to a simulated carbon fiber color stripe.

 

[yzf1999]

Replaced the front and rear endlinks yesterday….very easy job.

Every year I dump the PCM memory and reload the VEC3, as by the end of a single driving season, I can feel the difference.
Like dumping the PCM before you tune, flushing the PCM's memory annually makes a difference for those that can tell.
Housed in a decades old PBJ made VEC box, the three major issues of vibration, heat and atmospherics are resolved.
Atmospherics by means of running painters tape along the bottom edge when heading into a deluge, wash etc.
You can see the box on the right below PBJ's valve breather and collector. Red Box with Silver Logo.

The bottle has a sight tube to allow one to see if they need to turn the lower valve to dump the contents out for analysis.
It has a breather as well which I clean out and re-oil. When the valve begins to turn with resistance, I clean it all out.
In the other pic you can see his positive pressure NACA box. Beautifully made, it makes a difference and has a collection drain itself.
There to the right and under the right hand intake, you can see the yellow tag on top of the mounted valve oil bottle.
Anyway, old nicely made products of the period of the "Trinity"...Viper engines, Sean's blowers and the Vecs.
Kept properly, the Trinity still runs perfectly.
