Hi Rick still looking great as ever, just a quick question, what size brembo graphics did you get for your rear calipers? Im painting all mine up at the weekend and wanted to add some but can only find 80mm long ones on ebay which seem a bit big?

i will measure them later when i get in, as i cant remember , these were a custom size made at inters last year.

cheers mate, well i need to removehe bumper again anyway to have a play with the lights so i will mesh it up then, not sure on the mods list just yet, what is CC like?

Custom Code is great

The power delivery is constant throughout rpm range with Custom Code.

I love the sound of the Turbo spooling up even more now

Very nice car Rick, i have been having some trouble getting hold of the Konig Distributors, I have been talking to someone in Gateshead, of all places. (No offence to anyone reading this if you’re a magpie) but seriously is this the nearest to Wolverhampton?
I did go on line and have a search but they are looking at people to buy in bulk I think with a view to distribution? And all the price range is in dollars.
How did you get where you managed to procure some, I am working through Halfords at the moment, and I know the manager has loaded a percentage on for them. Can you help mate cheers?

halfords do fox wheels so end of story, dotch them and have a look in max power, yes maxpower theres loads of peole that stock them, POTN also gave a good price on them too.

lol, i bought them ages ago, i didnt have an address just a number, ill try to find it if ur interested

the big chrome intake cap that came with the viper will not fit in the near side fog light grill so i decided to mod the grill myself, i also bought some new flexi intake pipe from a hydrolics place as the other was too short.

I decided to make the original fog light hole 3'' and fabricate a lip on it to push inside the intake pipe and attatch to it.

i used a small container and joined it with fiberglass.
