Lots of good info & thanks to everyone. I am still taking everything in consideration. Has anyone used one of the rolling jacks that will telescope under a Viper and raise it off the lift for wheel work? I am wondering if there is enough clearance under a Viper to even consider the rolling jack...
I was watching Garage Mahal and they were installing Direct Lifts in the Hot Rod garage. I looked them up and they are owned by Dover Corporation and are built in China. Rotary Revolution lifts are also owned by Dover. The Rotary Revolution RFP9 and the Direct Lift Pro Park 9 Plus look very...
I just had a floor poured in my new garage this summer and I did not have anything like that. I would be up somebody's arse for that. I did not have any concrete re-work at all, it looked great. I let it cure for 60 days and painted it with 2 part epoxy.
Update. I had both headlights replaced and the new left one is fogging up. On top of it all, there is now a gap between the right front headlight seal and facia and the gap between the fenders and hood is off on both sides. I am going to try to straighten everthing out myself and forget about...
I think you should leave the CF hood on and do not paint it, leave it as is. The CF is cool and should not be covered up. If you had factory stripes, I could see adding stripes to the hood to match the rest of the car, but since you don't, leave it as is. It really looks good. :2tu:
That is the very reason I never leave mine out of my sight. An a--hole might not see me watching my Viper while I am eating or whatever, but I keep an eye on it.
I had previously decided to get a Rotary Rfp9 4 post lift, but I recently became aware of an accessory 4 post bridge jack for Back yard buddy and Bend pak 4 post lifts that allow you to jack up your car to do brake work while the car is on the ramp. Has anyone experienced this type of setup and...
Definitely get a lawyer that deals in driving tickets. I know of someone in a different part of VA that got a 20 over in a 45 zone and got it reduced to improper equipment, non moving violation. To be clear, it was not me. It costs close to $1000, but no insurance issues. They could not afford...
Thanks for the responses & PMs. My nephew has cut a deal to buy the car. I have been telling him to watch out for cold tires and to ditch the run craps. I think he is going to enjoy it.
I was in FL and was walking past a young couple in a parking lot across the street from the hotel at night. I am not a cop, just an overweight old man. A guy was man handling his wife or girl friend pretty rough. I walked on past trying to stay out of it, but I could not take it anymore. I...
My nephew in Marietta, GA is looking at an 05 Viper. I am trying to help him from getting burned and I was wondering if anybody has access to service and warranty records for VIN 1B3JZ65Z25V500547.
I appreciate your help.
PM me if you need to.
I noticed a few have been around for a while, now that you mention it. It looked like somebody was offering up a 96 B/W from another thread with 4K miles for $45K. That sounds like a better deal to me.
I noticed a 96 B/W GTS @ Premier Motors in the VCA classifieds. Does anyone know anything about this GTS? It looks clean. I am kicking it around a little.
Since I thought that the Viper was done, I bought a max care warranty for my 08 last week. I would have like to had a 2010 with the new 5th gear, but could not justify $30-$40K difference since mine is perfect with only 3K miles. With news of the 2012, I definitely would not get a 2010 and would...
I just got my copy of R&T in the mail today. I thought the interesting part of the article was the current 8.4L V10 engine could easily be made to meet 2018 emissions and that 700 hp could be be obtained with direct injection. Ilmor Marine sells the engine in 650 and 725 hp. There may be hope...
I had my car on a lift last week and noticed a Sharpie marking on the inner lip of one of the wheels. It was "300". I checked the next 2 wheels and found "300" on them. The fourth wheel had "30.5" written on it. The oddball wheel makes me wonder if it is unmatched to the other 3. Any ideas what...
I noticed my headlights are fogging up at night. I am going to take it in to get it fixed under warranty. If anyone has had this fixed, what is involved? Does the facia have to be removed? Does the complete complete headlight assy have to be replaced? My concern is misalignment of the facia...
Tanner is a little d---weed. I was surprised how much the Viper pulled the ZR1 in the mile up to 150. I had always heard how bad the ZR1 was. It would be interesting to see a rematch with the new 2010 Viper lower 5th gear. On another note, how come the bad ZR1 did not win 0-60 even though it has...
