    Baer Brake System for Track Use

    Hi, Well I was hoping to get out to Guelph to go talk to Mike about StopTech and getting some goodies I got for Christmas installed. But the weather wasn't good enough yet. Hopefully with a little rain this week I can get out there. Sorry back to the track days. I usually do track days with...

    Baer Brake System for Track Use

    Thanks for all the tips. After posting this message, reading your replies and checking other posts. It makes me think again about replacing the whole system. It sounds like allot of people are happy with just the rotor and pad replacement. If you are still lacking the stopping power then look...

    Baer Brake System for Track Use

    After doing some initial research I have found Baer, Brembo and Stoptech to be the 3 top systems for the Viper (atleast on paper). Baer seems to have the lead on technology if more is better with a 6 piston in the front system. But is approx. $1000 US ($1500 to Canadian like me) more than...

    Stock Alarm System - No Horn Activate

    I have a 1999 Viper GTS and want to arm the system (usually at night after I come home after being with the girlfriend and I don't want to wake the wife, just kidding) silently. I know you can do this on most aftermarket alarm systems but is there a way to do this on the GTS or get rid of the...

    How reliable is your viper?

    Not only that. It's cheap to maintain. It cost me just $300 CDN for the first service which was just checking some stuff out and replacing the brake and oil fluids. On the other hand you could buy a Ferrari and spend $5000 each year on service. Nathan...

    A/C gets hot when you step on the gas hard

    Thanks everyone. I didn't want to bring it in if it was normal. I had a feeling that the power was given to the engine and that you (the driver) must suffer to more hp just for a few seconds. Nathan...

    Has your viper got you any dates?

    Ok. I know that this will be a bit off topic but what I love most about the car is the little kids (future Viper owners) who just stare at it. If I see a bunch of kids watching the car and there isn't any cops around I just step on it and give them a show. Usually they say things like "peel...

    A/C gets hot when you step on the gas hard

    Hi Everyone, Before I bring the Viper in to get this checked I thought I would check with others to see if it is normal. On a hot day (30 celcius, 86 degrees for the Americans) I have the A/C running hard and when I step on the gas the air coming out of the vents gets hot for a second or two...

    Front plate??

    Just my two cents... I like the suction cup front plate mount. But will still not use a front plate as it recks the look for the Viper from the front as many of you have said. It's just another cost of owning a Viper (or luxury sportscar). I received a ticket in my brother's Vette for not...

    Alarm Arming ... Disable Horn Honk

    Another little technical question. Thanks everyone for the fuel filling responses. I have a 1999 GTS and want to know if there is a way to disable the horn honking when you arm the system and lock the doors. I know that this is possible with aftermarket alarms. This way I don't wake up the...

    Fuel Up Question

    Hi Everyone, Has anyone noticed that when you fill up the tank it doesn't go right to the fill line. I did a slow fill for the last bit to try and top it right up but it didn't seem to help. Just curious about this as it is really not creating any problems. Except for the fact that you need as...
