    Feeling Guilty

    This isn't car related, but I need to get this off my chest. Friday, I had to have my Jack Russell terrier put down due to heart failure. The vet asked if I wanted to be present at the time of injection, but told me since he had heart failure that fluid would come out of his nose shortly after...

    Looking for 19" VR-1 Sneaky Pete Center Caps

    Does anyone know where I could get 4 - 6 Sneaky Pete center caps for 19" VR-1 rims? I have a spare set of rears that I was going to put tires on, and I was wanting to have them match the fronts. The ones I have now have Forgeline on them, but they're starting to peel off so I was thinking about...

    Loose Door Panel

    I have a 1996 GTS and the door panel keeps catching on the weather stripping, and occasionally it prevents the door from opening. The panel has pulled away from the channel next to the window, and is separated from the back of the door. I've super glued it, used hot glue, black 3M adhesive and...

    Clogged High Flow Cat

    I have a 1996 GTS, and the side sill on the driver's side has bubbled/blistered in the area where the high flow cat is located. It's a Random Tech, and it's been on the car since I got it 7 years ago. After driving it for a while it's very hot to the touch, it this an indication of a clogged cat?

    Has anyone installed the Snake Oyl Door Hinge Repair Kit?

    I received and installed the Snake Oyl door hinge repair kit, and all it does is push the door closed (I thought it was supposed to keep it opened). The instructions are terrible, and a picture or explanation of how it's supposed to look after the install would be great, but all it says is...

    Question about dealerships

    I took my '96 GTS to the dealership to have the A/C recharged, and they told me that the discharge line burst during the process. They quoted me a price of $744.00 to fix it ($137 for the part and $600 for labor and "shop supplies"). Is it normal for the dealership to break your stuff, and then...

    Cleared to drive again...

    I had knee surgery April 10th, and then back surgery on the 25th (a little gift from Iraq). A few days ago I was cleared to drive again, but today I just wanted to sit in the car with the engine running. I just sat there with the car shaking and had the biggest smile on my face. What is it about...

    JonB's at it again

    I emailed JonB and asked for a windshield decal for my work truck because all the trucks here in Iraq are white Dodge Dakota Quad cabs, and it takes a while to find the right one in a parking lot full of identical trucks. He sent it out the next day and it got here in half the time it takes when...

    Motoman with Ralph Gilles interview

    I hope this isn't a repost, but I found a really interesting 2-part interview with Ralph Gilles. If you have a few minutes, it's worth the time.

    How rare is this car...

    I was wondering how rare this car is? I have one, but I'm looking for another for a friend. I haven't seen one on eBay in a long time, so I'm looking to see if someone has an extra they might part with.

    Fan not coming on...grrrrr

    I'm having issues with the fan on my 96 GTS. It won't come on when the engine get warm or with the A/C turned on. I took it to a place and was told to replace the engine coolant temperature sensor, so I did...and it still doesn't come on. I'm not too savy on checking electrical issues, but I did...

    Viper parts link

    I was on here a while back and someone posted a link to a site that had an illustration with a breakdown of all the part numbers of the parts for a Viper. It was similar to a service manual and I'm trying to find it. I had it saved on my work computer and home computer, but both had issues and...

    Stuck Thermostat?

    I was washing the Viper today, and let it run while I dried it to charge up the battery a little. I got in it when I was finished and noticed the needle on the water temperature was at 250. I had never seen it get over 190, even at a track event, so I was concerned. After thinking about it, I...

    Is this a good deal...

    or is it cheap garbage? I found this on eBay and was looking for a little feedback: Up for sale is a twin turbo kit for the Gen II (96-02) Dodge Viper GTS or RT-10. Included in the kit is all the intercooler piping along with silicone couplers and clamps, all the hot part hardware including...

    Power steering leak?

    I was sitting at a stop light and noticed smoke or steam coming out of the vent from the driver's side of the hood. I wasn't far from home (and in traffic) so I kept an eye on the gauges and kept smelling for something burning, but everything was fine. When I got home I grabbed the fire...

    To remove muffler or not?

    I've been toying with the idea of removing the muffler from my 96 GTS. I've got high flow Random Tech cats with a 3" Borla exhaust, but I would like it a little louder. I'm sure the horsepower gain would be negligible, but would anyone advise against it? I can hear ricers a mile away, and I've...

    Thinking of deleting the mufflers

    I have a 96 GTS with Random Tech high flow Cats, '98 exhaust manifolds and a Borla 3" cat back exhaust. The car sounds great, but a bit too quiet for my taste. I was thinking of removing the mufflers, but was wondering if it might be TOO loud. I prefer to avoid as much police attention (yes...
