CCW SP600 Teaser photos on the Snake

[KNG SNKE]

After some small issues I installed the 19/20 setup on my 2001.

Issues
Rears didn't clear the Daves BBK, needs 1/8 spacer (Thanks Mark at IPSCO)
Just couldn't get center caps where I wanted them (Thank you weather and bleach)
Springs needed to be lowered (Thank you LS6 Molester for selling me another set of caps because I sold my first set like an idiot)

Things that went well
I think the center caps look awesome! They didn't come out as planned, much better
I was able to use extended lug nuts, thats always a plus

Things that went bad
Compressing those springs is a huge pain. Luckily we got to the last spring before our spring compressor broke but we were able to power through it.

Overall from the preliminary looks of the car I like the setup (we finished at night so no final pics until daytime and the suspension settles)

Here are the teasers.

Also I am 90% sure I will have my SSR wheels up for sale as soon as I get this monster back in daylight. If the suspension is not low enough with these spring caps I will remove them and install the eibachs I am waiting on.

Some ghetto-sized wheels




I kid, I kid...very nice setup. Looking forward to full car pics. Any plans to black out the rotor hat?

 

[KNG SNKE]

Lol Hank, they 10's but I keep them real clean.

You will be hard pressed to find me talking trash in a thread for someone running 20's in the rear. I don't know why but its that extra inch that doesn't sit well in my mind, 21's that is, and even bigger as I have seen a gen 1 on 22/22.

No plans on the rotor hat as of now, we will see. Hopefully eventually I will have some serious rotors and not ebc's on there.

Yeah I know...just busting balls. I'd really like to see it slammed with your new coilover setup!

 

[KNG SNKE]

Unfortunately no new coilover setup, awaiting 2 companies to come through with a deal. Initial looks on the car I like how it sits on just spring caps but I do have eibachs on the way as soon as the guy takes them off his car. I can only go so low since I am in Rhode Island and the place where I store my car has a 10ft speed bump I have to clear.

kng snke: sorry not trying to de rail your thread but what are spring caps? i got my car with eibach springs and caps & it basically drags on the floor

 

[Timnineside]

Very nice!

 

[KNG SNKE]

spring caps are a replacement to your stock upper spring perch. They can be bought through Partsrack and they lower your car .5 to .75 inches. If your car is too low remove the spring caps and put your oem upper spring perches on or remove the eibachs and put oem springs on.

 

[APGTS]

ahhh got ya... couldnt understand why my car seemed lower than other cars ive seen on eibachs. . . wheels look sick btw good choice over the ssr's imo sp600s are the nicest looking wheel for the gen2s

 

[DEADEYE]

Looks great KNG SNKE!

 

[REDBLACK]

Sorry, not a fan of BIG, HEAVY wheels that ruin performance on a Viper. I would of gone with the SSRs and Eibachs. However, if you like them that is all that counts.

 

[KNG SNKE]

They were installed at night, not sure that I like them yet, couldn't see clear when we pulled it out of the garage.

Weight is not an issue for me, they will never see the track and that is why I might actually keep the SSR wheels. Not sure yet. Even being big heavy wheels they are still lighter then OEM wheels so I am doing good plus I won't feel much difference with the blower under the hood.

 

[APGTS]

I was always under the impression ccw's are light weight.I never felt ssr's are they much lighter? ..I wonder what the gears change to with the taller tire

 

[KNG SNKE]

SSR's are that lighter. This is a 19/20 setup. SSR's are 18/18, front is like 20lbs rear rim is like 22lbs (quick search of my posts and I have exact weight somewhere).

 

[C.Hermsen]

Those look great! One if the best looking Viper wheels IMO

 

[KNG SNKE]

C.Hermsen, Check PM about your request from months ago.

 

[slitherv10]

no mine are !!!

 

[AbsolutHank]

Dammit, where are the real pics??

 

[KNG SNKE]

I swapped my wheels out after a back injury and somehow during the install I did something to my arm. I don't keep my car where I live in RI so its on the other side of the island. I will most likely take photos tomorrow or Tuesday. Weather has been bad too. Once I take photos the ssr wheels and tires will most likely go on sale.

 

[KNG SNKE]

Lowered on spring caps, CCW SP600 19/20 setup on Nitto tires. I had to run a 1/8 spacer in the rear to clear Dave's BBK. I think if I ran 14 inch rear rotors I would not have to run a small spacer. Also I do rub a little bit in the rear but I think its because of the spacer, just a tiny bit. The hard decision is do I spend almost 1k dollars to go with a 14 inch rear rotor and Dave's BBK or let it rub? Too many choices.

I figure it this way
EBC SRT front rotors 500
Daves rear BBK bracket 400 dollars
Ebrake rear bracket to make 14 inch 60 dollars
Not sure what to do.

Awesome! I really like those CCWs powdercoated. The stance looks good too...it's a shame you can't go much lower with that front lower air dam on the Gen II cars scraping everywhere

 

[KNG SNKE]

Yeah I already still scrape heading out of the storage place. Measured it just a fraction above oem ride height for that front piece. Very small rub in the rear wheel well as well, blaming the spacers for that. I need to upgrade to 14 inch rear rotors.

 

[mnc2886]

Clean and classy setup for a clean and classy car. I don't think a better wheel can be had for the same price.

 

[FLX109]

Looks awsome, do you need an alignment now after lowering?

 

[KNG SNKE]

Not sure, I only lowered the car back down to what stock height would be. Most likely I do though, know anyone locally worth a damn to do it?

 

[Timnineside]

That stuff Cra. Love it!!!

 

[bmw2nv2000]

I think your car looks sooo much beter with the 19/20's. But of course I like big wheels

 

[bmw2nv2000]

You know Id love to have a yellow gen4 ACR after looking at your pics.

[bmw2nv2000]

Yep yellow with black center band and yellow drivers stripe would be awsome!!!!
