    I just drove the SRT Coupe

    Terminator02; Thanks for posting your experience. It is really great to read an intelligent, enthusiastic post from a "younger" person's point of view. I hope you get your dream Viper; in my humble opinion, you deserve to own one. You obviously "get" what the Viper is all about! Once you...

    Screw it, I Finally took the Viper to the Rev Limiter

    Hello; I have the G-Tech Pro as well. That thing is very cool indeed! Try to enter the numbers as accurately as possible. Drive to an Interstate truck-weigh station in your viper with a full tank of gas (or 1/2 tank if you want to cheat a bit) and get an accurate weight. Then, follow the...

    Why no official release on Coupe performance?

    Hello; I believe there will be differences on the track. The new Coupe is going to be more structurally rigid.... I THINK I have read about 30%. I am pretty sure that was the figure, and i am pretty sure I read it here on our VCA website in an "Official" SRT release that someone posted. Even...

    Window switch question. Can it be modded to RAISE the window with one touc

    Thanks all! it's nice to see some usefull, honest answers on this Gen III Forum. I don't post much any more because of the stupid, sarcastic remarks that usually follow an honest question. Honestly, this is a good and usefull question. In a security emergency, I want to put that window of...

    Window switch question. Can it be modded to RAISE the window with one touc

    Hello; Yes, the stock electric window switch automatically LOWERS the window with one push; we also know it lowers the window to whatever level we want by gently pushing the switch and holding it. I would really like the switch to be able to RAISE the window with one touch. I find I am...

    2002 GTS ACR VS 2005 SRT-10

    Final Ed 357; Straight even trade? You must me kidding. The 02' ACR is older, and as you just read, it doesn't brake, or handle as well. The only thing the ACR has is looks (and it is a Viper!). Other than looks, the SRT-10 is the superior machine. What makes an 02' ACR worth the same as a...

    "I'm Lovin it"!

    Re: \"I\'m Lovin it\"! Turbo63; Glad you are enjoying your Viper! Addictive, isn't it? Well, have you noticed how bugs love the Yellow? I am not talking about the splattered ones who "gave it up" to the windshield, front fascia, radiator, etc. I am talking about Bug's just LOVING the...

    Crossovers; what are they good for?

    The crossover system was designed to "mingle" the sounds of the 5-cylinders on each side of the engine. Because of the sound produced by the firing order of the 10 cylinders, the crossover is a big help toward us a "bigger" sound. V-8 rumble (on a performance car) and sound deep and powerful...

    Sequential Shifter for Vipers

    Insomniac; This is a GREAT TOPIC! A "positive shift every time" would interest me very much indeed. I checked out the UK link (thank you) that someone here posted, and it is a link to Quaife parts for Dodge cars in the UK. They show the items available for the Viper. I know about the Quaife...

    Curb and Wheel Rim Collided

    Dang; i ran over the mother-in-law (I wish! Just kidding)... denture marks left to remind me of the dream I'll never fulfill. It's OK, the dent would be a lot bigger! Repair it. it's pretty darn easy if you didn't have a mother-in-law with porcelain veneers. They leave a heck of an...

    after hearing all sides on the doa coupe thread...

    DSR207; Many THANKS TO YOU, for posting those GREAT PICS of the Coupe! Anybody who say's that it isn't fantastic is full of it. There is no question that SRT gave us what we asked for and more in the style department. For those of you non-believer's, you need to know that Bill pemberton has...

    after hearing all sides on the doa coupe thread...

    I love the Coupe! Dodge gave people what they wanted in the looks department for sure. The GEN II GTS looks are all over the new Coupe! The rear-end is almost a copy, but updated. What is not to love, besides the lack of a horsepower increase? C'mon folks, the new Viper coupe looks awesome...

    Any updates of the Paxton filter housing/rubbing?

    hello; Yes, my paxton air filter housing does rub the hood-liner a little bit. It has kind of "burnished" four quarter-sized shiny spots on the hood-liner. There was talk here of a factory replaced housing in the works (Paxton factory replacement, not D/C obviously). Any news? By the way...

    A thought; Does anybody know if a company called "VDO" still makes gauges? If I recall, they were pretty high-quality product. Just a thought! Jim W.

    Anyone Want to STEAL My Car???

    Big Carrot; Just a little advice on Porsche and mods... if you want a warranty don't do any! I have a new Cayenne Turbo that I special ordered. Even putting K&N filters on it took some sweet-talk at the dealership. Don't believe me? Call Mark Jorgenson at Woodhouse in Blair, NE...

    my 03 with Motons and OE rims

    Hello; Well, that was my beloved 03' SRT-10! Glad to see it's got a great new home. So, is it everything I told you it would be? She is a runner for sure, and Woodhouse did those mods perfectly. I think it is a perfect Viper. With the Moton's installed now, it must be a real treat. My new...

    Increase Horsepower

    Hello folks; Ever since the SRT-10 came out, we've had folks who are just plain... uh, rude on the VCA forum. You fellow Viper owners know that new member are coming in. Why jump on them? I mean, Mamba has pic's up, etc. Why be critical? So what if this member would like to have 1,000 HP...

    $100,1HOUR,HOWTO/MUST DO,SPEAKER UPGRADE(PICS)

    Speakers will blow much quicker when the amplifier is sending a distorted signal. Sort of like you will cut yourself with a dull knife much easier than with a razor sharp one. The Big Magnets on the Polk's mean lots of control on the voice coil and cone excursion. That control takes power...

    Did anyone take off their sun visors?

    Hello; Would someone be kind enough to post the phone # and contact information for the "homelink" visor unit? I have been wanting something like that for a loooongg time. 3 remotes on my passenger visor. they fall off, can be stolen, and my home would then be vunerable. Talk about a mod...

    The ultimate identity theft?

    Viperfreak2; Couldn't agree more with you! It would be great to have a couple of "filters" to go through to be able to post. Like, being a dues-paying VCA member and/or posting your VIN #. I don't think that would be too unreasonable to ask, do you? We have some very cool (and educated)...

    1/4 mile improvment

    RENTME; Just a non-critical couple of honest questions for you that may help your credibility here. #1. Do you speak fluent English? Is English your main language? * We have folks on this board from all over the planet, and sometimes they don't know the language well enough to really...

    Looking for advise on suspension and intake upgrade.

    03SRT; Moton "Club Sports". 7-way adjustable for each wheel. Around $4,000. Worth every penny; I just wish I had done it a long time ago! Please see my post specifically discussing the Moton's and the Paxton Supercharger and intake that comes with it. Oh, make sure you get the matching...

    This Paxton and Moton shock/springs combo is the stuff!

    Hello; Just over 1,000 miles on the ODO driving my new Copperhead since last friday's delivery by Woodhouse. NO complaints, just a big grin on my face! Already had the oil/filter changed at 500 miles, and i've got the green light to start using the go pedal to taste. Wow, the Paxton is...

    Love my new Copperhead! Who can paint brake caliper's to match?

    Re: Love my new Copperhead! Who can paint brake caliper\'s to match? Thanks for the comments; My real question is not whether the Caliper's (Rotor's?) can be painted. The question is really asking if they can be painted in a "Metallic" color (Copperhead Copper) and if the Metallic paint can...

    Love my new Copperhead! Who can paint brake caliper's to match?

    Love my new Copperhead! Who can paint brake caliper\'s to match? Hello; Really, the red caliper's aren't that bad, but Black or matching Copper would have been better IMHO. I know that the paint needs to be a special, "High Temperature" paint, and that it probably wasn't available in the...
