    Fluttering sound from rear wheel after tire change

    It was the parking brake cable rubbing against the rotor. The clip that holds the cable in proper position must have broken off. Easy fix thankfully.

    Fluttering sound from rear wheel after tire change

    I just had four new MPSS tires put on. I didn't even notice the sound until I had it home and took it out again for a drive. It's coming from the rear passenger side wheel. The sound is most audible when it is echoing off something next to it (cars, trees, street curb, etc). The car drives...

    Grinding/vibrating sort of sound/feel while driving slow?

    Was it pretty loud? I think the noise I heard was plenty loud enough for the cars around me to hear.. And I have a full Belanger exhaust system with headers... So it takes a lot to hear anything over that exhaust.

    Grinding/vibrating sort of sound/feel while driving slow?

    It was definitely continuous.. The only time it lasted a significant amount of time (around 3-4 seconds), was the first time it happened. After that, only a very brief (1 sec) grind/vibrate. I looked under the car several times without it being on a lift, but didn't see anything.. I also...

    Grinding/vibrating sort of sound/feel while driving slow?

    I have a 2001 RT/10. I had the Stoptech Big Brake kit installed almost two years ago, and they only have a couple thousand miles on them, if that. The other day I was out for a drive, and as I slowed to probably under 15mph, I heard a loud sort of grinding/scraping sound.. It felt and...

    Anyone own/owned a GTR?

    I own a 2010. You can get brakes for less than half that easily. Tranny is expensive, but can also be had for half that price. If you go through the dealership for parts, you're going to get ****ed. Plain and simple. The replacement parts from vendors are cheaper and are often upgrades...

    Glad they are going to limit the amount Corvettes & Mustangs at Cars & Coffee Irvine

    Re: Glad they are going to limit the amount Corvettes & Mustangs at Cars & Coffee Irv Wow.. Those shows are amazing. We take all the cars we can get at Cleveland C&C. If it goes fast and/or looks unique, bring it.

    Other than the Viper, what exotic car holds it's value well?

    Nissan GTR-s are holding up pretty well.

    May be time for new exhaust

    The Viper stock exhaust *****.. I don't know how you guys can stand the silence on such a menacing beast. Like the above poster said, at least get high flow cats. They cool your sills down and give the car some attitude. As for a complete system, I have Belanger front-to-back and love it.

    Time for a tire change?

    I haven't taken out of storage yet. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

    Time for a tire change?

    I bought my RT/10 in the summer of 2010. The previous owner put new PS2s on the Viper sometime around Fall 2009 I believe. I've only put a few thousand pampered miles on it since I've owned it; with the occasional spirited sprints mixed in. The Viper sat through three winters in a non-heated...

    Best comment you overheard someone say about your car...

    Liberal society baby.. Gotta love it. Our president never worked a day in his life and look where it got him.

    Sunday Drive

    It was mid 60s here too. I took the GT-R out for some fun in the sun. The Viper is still in hibernation until we're safe in the clear. It's been snowing off and on all day today. 10 day forecast right now shows nothing over 45 degrees. Sunday was such a tease!
