Does anybody have a set of ACR gen 2 wheels they would like to part with?

They show up on Viper related Facebook pages periodically. A couple of sets in the last month or 3.

Great job finding those mirror parts, two of us in the UK were looking for those parts, I gave up in the end. My friend Steve had a side short exhaust system set up it was custom made.

Interested to know how far you intend to go with the conversion?

My car is a rendition of the Oreca 92 car from the American Le mans series in 2000, Steves is the Autoform Rolex Daytona 91 Car.

I also started the picture thread for GTSR’s here

That should help you decide on what car you intend to replicate.
Steve at Autoform would also be a good guy to talk to, he sells many of the products you will need for the task.

I have a spare Autoform safety roll bar for a GTS sitting in my Garage, make me an offer but I have no idea what the postage to the usa would be?
I modified my roll bar to allow for full seat adjustment

Now seeing as I’ve done my car as 92, Steve has 91 we really need to see 93 out there…. 😀
Looking forward to more pictures and what direction you intend to take
Cheers Mark

Im still on rear exit exhausts at the moment, it just sounds so Awesome I can’t bring myself to change it even though I have a pair of Autoform side exit sills and new Belanger side exit system sitting in the Garage.
I just seem to be hording more and more Viper stuff! Its an Addiction!

Steve’s roll bar is the standard Autoform roll bar.

Thing is I love the race car look but I also tour in the car so still wanted it to be comfortable and practical inside. The standard Autoform Roll bar sits slightly forward in the car, this means that you can not get the seat fully back. Im 6ft 2in, so I needed the seat back to recline fully and slide back.
I fitted the Northwind adjustable seat lowering kit on the drivers side. However a problem with the Autoform roll bar is that the emergency door opening tabs hit the downtube of the roll bar. Some people take the easy route of just cutting the tabs a bit shorter, but I chose to alter the shape of the roll bar to make it hug the rear bulkhead better. (this also allowed full movement of the seats).

I also did not want to loose the top cubby hole storage in the rear bulkhead, So we put a slight twist in the roll bar to allow use. It was a lot of work with my friend neil who is an engineer and has his own workshop. We must have had the roll bar in and out of the car at least 8 times to get the fit right.

Door emergency tabs now miss the roll bar

My friend Peter does own a NARRA race viper but its too raw inside for me because its totally stripped out to save weight for track use and fully caged, it also has the lexan race windshield this means he ha no side windows or roof liner, he also lost use of the rear boot (trunk) as he has a large fuel cell fitted in there.
