    97 Blue and White GTS Values

    Anyone been following GTS values lately? KBB values seem to be going up since the last time I checked. Is 45k a fair price for a mint 97 B&W GTS with 21k miles nowadays? I drove an SL600 and am hooked. Time to get rid of one of the Vipers. Anyone looking for a clean GTS?

    San Francisco = NOT Viper friendly

    Its not so bad... I used to park my Viper on the street all the time. Got used to it. Parking spaces here cost more than some of the houses out in the mid west.

    question for you Bay Area Viper owners

    I lived in North Beach when I first got my viper. I used to park it on the street alot. It was funny hearing people talk about the car as they walked by. I had to drive through downtown everyday to get to work. It wasnt too bad, the roads arent great but you just slow down a little. The...

    What can be used to clean carbon build up in cylinders?

    Forget the chemicals, water works better than anything else I've tried. If you take a spray bottle and spray water into the intake while holding the RPMs at 2000, the water will soften up carbon deposits, then you take it on a good freeway run and burn everything off. This also burns carbon...

    R12 to 134a or ES-12a

    Converting to R134a isn't a big job and it makes servicing the system later much easier.

    Tool for Brake pads

    Needle nose pliers will only work if the piston turns pretty freely. If your car isn't driven much like most Vipers, the pistons might be pretty hard to turn. Most universal brake caliper tools don't have the correct size adaptor for the Viper's caliper piston either since the Viper has a...

    High beam lamp type?

    The 9011 bulb is NOT the same as a 9005. My 96 GTS takes the 9011 high beam bulb and the only place I could find the bulb was at Dodge. I think they were $98 each. Part number 00154805.

    MUSTANGS VS VIPERS?

    Mustangs have solid rear axles and are the superior drag racing setup. Vipers have independent rear suspension like all the other supercars.

    Is there a simple way to test if individual injector is working?

    Injectors are solenoids and you can hear and feel them clicking. That won't tell you if they are clogged or if the spray patterns messed up though.

    Rear brake piston retraction tool

    My rear brake pistons are hard as hell to turn back in too. The brake tool in your link is the one that will keep pressure on the piston while turning it back in. I have two sets of those, Snap-On and OTC, and neither of them had the right attachment for the Viper rear brakes. I had to make...

    IMO, this is what the new coupe should have looked like...

    yup... I'd rather have a comp coupe lookalike. If I could afford one, I'd drive a comp coupe on the street with a dealer plate.

    Zerex Racing Super Coolant - temp difference results

    I wouldnt run 90 percent water on a street car period. The coolant not only lowers the freezing point, but it raises the boiling point as well. For racing, a water/water wetter mix has worked great though. Its mandatory for 2 wheel track days too.
