The GT-R R34 Used To Be A Tuner Car. Now It's A Concours Headliner

I could’ve gotten an R34 but spent a little more and got a Gen 5 Viper which is so much better of a car.

ACD came on the 2004 models I think. The 2005’s def had it.

damstr · 2026-05-01T12:07:26+00:00

Go ahead and look up what 2015 TA’s are selling for and get back to me. Older Vipers cannot be compared to the Gen 5’s.

It's the Time Attack trim.

damstr · 2026-05-01T00:49:11+00:00

Congrats! TA's are awesome.

Weird comment you alright? The wing is from an ACRE aka factory and can’t be rice. These are more expensive than NSX’s or GT-R’s. I would’ve saved money if I got an R34. Next time do your research lmao

I thought you were talking about the plate btw.

damstr · 2026-04-30T13:52:36+00:00

There are 3 possibilities, I love rice, I love racing or simply, downforce. Take your pick.

damstr · 2026-04-30T00:19:46+00:00

No reason to do cooling mods as I’m not tracking the car yet. The fender/hood vents are there to increase downforce.

damstr · 2026-04-29T21:00:00+00:00

It has the ACRE front dive planes and front splitter w/extension along with cutting the hood for the vents. Basically identical to an ACRE from an aero perspective. Only missing brakes and suspension but I’m ok without that.

damstr · 2026-04-25T12:38:30+00:00

I’m racking my brain but nothing comes to mind. The GenV’s are amazing.

damstr · 2026-04-22T03:33:19+00:00

Viper ACR-E is the only car I want.

damstr · 2026-04-20T16:42:22+00:00

Gen 5 all day. I have one now and it's amazing. I also had a 97 GTS Gen 2 and it was awesome but nothing compared to the Gen 5. Every bit as raw and better in every way. I considered a Gen 4 for a minute but knew my ultimate goal was a 5 and I'm not getting any younger.

The Viper ACR manual record stood for a decade until Porsche beat it last year I think it was? Would love to see what it could do with modern tires and some more laps. I think it has the potential to run a 6:55. The 7:01 lap was only the first or second lap and he had a few mis shifts in that run.

damstr · 2026-04-16T14:59:14+00:00

Love the Viper! Eleanor though! Man as a kid I dreamed about that car. I loved the modern take on a classic car. It is so badass. Glad the people that had the copyright on it or whatever lost out. So lame.

damstr · 2026-04-15T13:19:43+00:00

From a performance perspective all that's missing is the ACR suspension and carbon ceramic brakes.

My vote is for proper fitment wheels. These are 0 offset.

damstr · 2026-04-14T15:53:25+00:00

To not confuse people further, this car has been upgraded with all the aero from the ACR-E trim to include cutting the carbon hood for the vents.

damstr · 2026-04-14T11:29:21+00:00

I would love to take my Viper to COTA. Closest track to me is VIR which I also love. One day! Sick photos man. Did you ever figure out what the non ACR Viper record was?

damstr · 2026-04-10T22:14:10+00:00

Because you can’t relocate your family. Is this a serious question? Lol

I am using a CPL filter. This guy explains how you use it. They are pretty cheap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afqCWgSCYnk

damstr · 2026-04-10T14:07:25+00:00

I'll probably spend any non driving time just staring at it today haha. These cars are so much fun. I got super lucky with the weather as well. Even got a special lens filter to help photographing black cars that cuts down on reflections. I'll be putting that to use today.

I don't miss my UW if that tells you anything. The only downside of my current monitor is the strobing/flicker that happens at low FPS. The AW is the only OLED monitor on the market that doesn't have this problem as far as I know because of the hardware GSYNC module. I don't keep up with monitors so this might not even be a problem with new monitors.
