slamdspec · 11-06-2012, 03:58 PM

Its the HIC USA roof visor

ScoobySubyDoo · 11-06-2012, 04:38 PM

Just out of curiousity, why would you want to be RWD? I specifically bought a WRX to get away from my RWD car that sucked in the winter.

Being he's in San Diego, I dont think he has to worry about RWD sucking in the Winter.

I welded up the center diff which is basically all you need to do. I also pulled the front diff out of the trans. Plugged up the holes on the trans and am using some axle stubs to keep the bearings happy.

Off road, the Wrx is faster..everywhere else the viper takes the cake, can't go wrong with 650hp in a light ass car..

I mean stock for stock of course...but there are certainly a handful of people that have faster wrxs/sti's then vipers...My good friend for one has a 04 sti making well over 800 at the wheels on a mustang dyno and he has a 07 sti that put down 600 something. I hear ya though put a few mods into that viper and you'll pass those numbers fairly easily.

Also I dunno if that is a new viper or not (I guess you would know since you took pics with it haha, I'm not into them enough to tell the body differences) but the previous generations I believe made 500hp at the crank.

That's a Hennessy 650 viper. It has 650 to the wheels. And yeah I have ridden in some very quick subies but mine is not that quick.

AutoPrue · 11-06-2012, 08:33 PM

Yeah beaches we are moving to finishing touches before some paint!

low-n-slow · 11-06-2012, 08:35 PM

Also, take note to the rear shot and the 3x larger rear tires.
