    I have read the posts......not if, but when. How about you "high" mileage guys? Have you changed the gaskets? How many miles, now, and at the time you had to "change" gaskets? :rolleyes:

    Emergency STOP! Only the Front Brakes Locked. ?????

    Cruising along about 50 MPH, a dog came out from the sidewalk, and being the pet lover that I am, and no traffic behind me, I saved his life and the front end of my car (which is more important is up for debate). I changed to EBC greens about 6 months ago, and had Kumhos put on the back. I...

    Tech Service Bulletin 03-05-95, Where Can I Get It?

    Noise from Left Rear......Any Ideas?

    It is not a deep "clunk", more like a "snap" or "pop". Seems to be coming from the left rear and only happens taking off "straight". Cannot hear it during turns. It is not very loud, and does not happen everytime, but about 75% of the time. It's a 95RT with about 9.5K miles. Any Comments...

    Zaino applied with orbital buffer, removed by hand? Any comments?

    Been thinking of using my porter-cable to apply Zaino, and remove by hand. Has anyone tried this? I know Sal doesn't recommend because of extra wax required. Not so concerned about extra wax, just results. Comments?

    KUMHO Observations after 500 miles.......

    "Bite" like he11. Kumhoooole shots. No rock damage, only occasionally hear some "hits" inside of fender-well. Did put some 3M Scotchcal on as a precaution, but would not have needed it (so far). Been on some "twisty" canyon roads, freeways, local streets. Do not track the car. No problems...

    COLD OIL Change?

    Well the Viper is on jack stands awaiting the return of the wheels I am having chromed. Since I don't want to run the car on the jacks, nor gas everyone in the house, what do you think about draining the oil cold (ambient air about 70 degrees), changing the filter and adding Mobil 1? Have a 5W...

    "Arrest Me Red" Vipers at Tator's

    \"Arrest Me Red\" Vipers at Tator\'s Looking at the aerial photo of Tator's BBQ, it appears that the predominant color in attendance is RED, although the Yellows do stand out. If this is a "wide sampling" of various attendees, could it be true that most of the vipers on the street today are Red?

    "Poser" or "Racer"

    \"Poser\" or \"Racer\" I admit it....I'm a poser (no intentions of "tracking" the car) and have no qualms with the "racers" (maybe a little earlier in my life). Now I know that even though you race you, somewhat, pose (in addition to wanting to win)....so what brought you to the viper. Speed...

    Can someone give an Update on Kumho's & Rocks

    Can someone give an Update on Kumho\'s & Rocks Have the OEM tires, only 7K miles, but the "rears" are so hard that the car gets "sideways" on a power shift into second. I know they should be changed (I think I will leave fronts original). Read some older and newer "threads" about the Kumhos...

    EBC Greens....dust free (almost) for me

    Installed my EBC Greens this week, and after 100 miles I am impressed with how clean my wheels are staying. Got really tired of cleaning the wheels all the time (yes, I'm a poser), but when the car looks immaculate and your wheels look like you drove the road to the "open pit" coal mine....well...

    New 2 1/4 ton Floor Jack from Sears.......$27.00 with two Jack Stands

    So I bought it this weekend on sale. Fits under the rear OK, but will have to use the "board" trick for the front. Hey, it's a Craftsman. Besides, I'm getting my EBC's this week and am tired of $70.00 oil changes.

    Need New Radio/CD Player Advice

    What would be the easiest to install without modifications. I'm happy with the sound of my existing speakers, so I won't be replacing them. Mainly interested in the CD player (doesn't have to be multiple disc) since my 95 R/T did not come with one. Just looking for a quality unit with about...

    Just ordered my EBC Greens from John B. Do I need any special tool(s) to install them? I read other posts about "cleaning up" the rotors.
