Welcome To Another Edition Of The Automotive Corner.

Monday, October 20th, 2008

Hey fans, VizX here coming at you with another edition of the automotive corner. I found a posting on jalopnik of something soooo nice that you would think dodge would make. I think it would sell to be honest, but hey what do I know right?

“You remember that recent Dodge statement basically confirming there would not be a Dodge Challenger Convertible? Who cares if Dodge won’t bring it, because it’s just opening the doors for aftermarket converters like Coach Builders Ltd., bringing their interpretation of a drop-top Mopar pony to the SEMA show in Vegas next month. For the show, Coach Builders’ Challenger gets 560 HP from a supercharger and other underhood mods, along with the requisite obnoxious wheels and what appears to be a Challenger T/A-inspired strobe stripe, though it comes off looking more like safety tape.”

“Priced at about $16,000 on top of the cost of a Challenger, the conversion nets you hidden chassis bracing and a power hydraulic top with extra sound insulation, an integrated headliner and heated rear window. Body kit and engine package pricing hasn’t been determined yet, as the company is still finalizing details. But with production slated to start November 15, if you want one, you’d better get Coach Builders Ltd. your deposit quick — apparently they’re already putting buyers in the que. Sure, the price is steep, but where else are you going to get a Challenger convertible?”

Now, in my opinion I would get that, discard the rims for something alittle more tasteful and remove the MS Paint looking vinyl on the side of it and THEN, that would be a nice looking ride, but as is all you need are the “ghetto” stick on fender louvers to make what this recreation of a classic is into another gaudy ghetto-tastic ride!

Hello Everyone, Welcome to the Mod Shop! Spotlight: AEM Power

Thursday, September 18th, 2008

Welcome Everybody to another edition of VizX’s The Mod Shop, I Am VizX coming at you today with something thats a very very important part of your cold air intake. This product is called an air bypass valve. The Air Bypass Valve virtually eliminates the chance of hydro-lock should the filter of your AEM Cold Air intake somehow gets submerged in water. On most systems, the valve installs along the upper portion of the inlet pipe and shuts down induction at the filter when it becomes submerged, rerouting the air to keep water out and air flowing in.

You can get this bypass for your AEM Intake HERE for between $50.00 – $60.00

Well thats it for the mod shop this week! Keepin it short and sweet for you ya know. I hope you enjoyed your time! Don’t forget about getting your hands on Flytoyz decals for your ride! Spread The Word, Flytoyz is the truth!

Ill see you monday on the automotive corner!

Ok After a small hiatus VizX is here and im bringin you The Automotive Corner! Ok so what im talking about today is something ive gone over twice already, but I keep coming back because the envelop keeps getting pushed farther and farther!!

The Infamous Nurburgring in Germany has seen a few supercars as of late. “Godzilla” a.k.a. The Nissan GTR set the standard with a new world record, then the guys at Chevrolet we like, nah I dont think so… So they took their beastly new Corvette ZR-1 around the ring and that had beaten Godzilla’s time. This record time had stood for a little while now, and then the guys at Dodge felt they needed to beat it for automotive supremacy and they did!! They beat the ZR-1 by around 3-4 seconds! The Car? Viper ACR, makes sense to me! Hell that new European company Cerberus is killing the Viper in a few years, why not break some records before we say goodbye to one of the hottest exotic-american cars ever made?

I also found the video of the viper on its run, its the in car camera and you can just head all 10 cylinders banging the rev limiter and see the shifter bounce around like no tomorrow from it also! I hope you enjoy it! I know I sure did!

and if you would like to see how the ACR Viper did compared to the ZR-1 ‘Vette.. I found this on the tube also that someone else made and put them together, awesome job btw!

Well thats it for the automotive Corner! I hope you enjoyed it as this is how they new style is for the ‘Corner, short and sweet with all the info you want and crave to be IN THE KNOW! Coming Up this Week Is the Debut Of A New Once A Month Segment Launching On the 3rd(Weds) and The Mod Shop Is Back This Thursday!

Have a Fun and Safe Holiday!
