Official Gen II ACR Thread

[ACR_Matt]

The other gens have their ACR threads, thought it was overdue that we have one as well. They may not have all of the aerodynamic goodies of the later gens but they have their place in Viper lore. Here's my 2000 ACR, 1 of 22 for the US market. 3 of her sisters went to Canada.

Outstanding ACR. Gotta love those low production numbers! Is yours part of the comfort group or one of the rare "Hardcore" cars?

130 miles per year. If you are just going to look at it a full size picture would have been cheaper and easier to store.

Where Did you Get The Carbon Fiber B Posts And Door Handles? WOW LOVE THEM!

[Fatboy 18]

Seriously, 2 and 1/2 thousand miles! Either stick in in a museum and buy another GTS or Use the thing! These cars were made to be driven, I've done over 50k in my car and it's simply the best times I have ever had. its measured in Smiles Per Gallon.
You honestly don't know what your missing

Hey hey hey - slow down there Skippy. Just bought the bad boy in September. right now its 11 degree with snow everywhere.

That being said, I am thinking of selling my other to get a "I don't care about the mileage car." To Mr 46hemi's point - I love just sitting in the garage with a beer.

Who else has a GEN II ACR? Need someone else you guys can pick on

I always thought if your car didn't make you wanna just sit and stare at it, you bought the wrong car. I've certainly spent more than one evening just hanging out admiring mine lol.. Cheers!

Sorry there Brian, I just looked at when you Joined, I just presumed you had had the car a long time! My Bad. Don't get me wrong, the car looks stunning, how many previous owners?

Your car do what you like with it. Drive the pi$$ out of it or put it in a bubble whatever floats your boat.

Anywho, here is a pic that belongs in any Gen II ACR thread

I love this attention to detail. I sent you a pm about the airbag sticker. Pm me when you can.

Heres my 1999 ACR with silver stripes... the black is just vinyl wrap on top. I believe 1 of 14 is that correct guys? ACR_MATT, I LOVE that rear wing... currently saving for it and I'm going to have it carbon fiber hydro dipped. Also, where did you get those side door carbon fiber pillars from? Can you post more pics of your rear diffuser also? Thank you!

Looks awesome! Yes, 14 Red/silver ACRs were produced in 1999. I think that's the lowest production year for Red/silver ACRs. Thank you, it's one of my favorite mods along with the carbon fiber door covers. I like those little mods that most people wouldn't be able to tell it wasn't OEM the best. The door covers were custom made by a guy in Chicago. Does excellent work. Also did the interior emergency release cover for me in matte carbon fiber. The diffuser blades were made by KNG SNK but I don't think he's in the Viper world any longer. I'd like a proper diffuser for it ACR-E style but there's isn't one commercial available that I like, so I'm planning on making my own.

You think he'd make some more? I would love to have some of those door pieces.

I'm sure that he would! Let me dig up his contact info. If anyone else would like it as well just pm me.

Just in case you missed this on the FB site, here is a little known difference between a Gen II GTS and ACR.

Hmm interesting. Did not know that. Thanks!

[71firebird400]

Man, all the cars posted so far have enviable hood/fascia gap. Maybe I need an ACR after all.

Here's my '01 ACR. One of the 38(I though only 34 but who really knows??) solid yellow. The previous owner added the black vinyl stripes. Curently just under 35k miles. Sadly she sits in the garage now awaiting spring. Happily she also sits in the garage awaiting heads and cam...

My 2002 beauty!

[ACR_Matt]

Those are some great looking yellow ACRs! Well done Brian and BFoster! Kinda envious of those with the mono color cars. They look amazing and stripes can always be added or changed at a whim. Keep the pics coming guys! Curious what everyone's stance is on modifications. Are you keeping them as they rolled out of the showroom or going mod crazy? I'm in the latter group. Hope to do a nice NA build next year now that I have suspension and brakes sorted.

I'm going mods Have M&M headers, 3", no cats, and just a resonator at the back. Currently in the middle of getting heads rebuilt and cam. Should be back on the road in April, just in time for the snow to go away!

Nice! Just rebuilding the heads or giving them a little extra juice? Have a particular power goal in mind? I'm wanting to do a Gen III head swap myself. Already have a beautiful polished Gen III intake begging to be installed.
