    How do you answer?

    I am constantly having people ask me "when are you gonna let me borrow the Viper?" These range from people I know well, to workmates, to people I've never met before. I usually try to keep it funny, like "I lend it out the second Tuesday of each week", to "I left the keys here for you yesterday...

    Wheel compatability

    I hate to ask this question with all of the threads on wheels on the site, but I just wanted to make sure. I am looking at buying some used wheels off a Gen3 (19X13,18X10) and I can't think of why they wouldn't work on my RT/10. :confused: Now.... as far as I understand, all Gen3/Gen4 wheels...

    Automatic Volume Control question

    Is anyone aware of an aftermarket radio that has the AVC? I'm not crazy about the factory radio (2002 RT10) because it skips so badly and no IPOD connection, but I hate having to constantly keep changing the volume on aftermarket radios, too. :dunno: Thanks!

    Ever heard of this??

    I just got some new Kumhos for my '02 RT/10 and had them installed this AM at Goodyear. They estimated the install time for 4 tires at around 40 minutes. Over 2 hours later the car was finally done, and the manager said "Oh, by the way..... we couldn't balance the rear tires. They were too...

    Wow!

    I apologize if this has been mentioned before, but has anyone seen the new incentive to buy a 2006 SRT10? If you buy before November 3rd, you get an all expense paid trip to GERMANY! Here's a copy/past of the information from the Dodge website.

    two post lift vs four post

    Can anyone tell me the advantages/disadvantages of the two. Everyone I've seen here seems to be getting the four post....but if you are going to do tires, springs, suspension stuff wouldn't a two post be better? I am putting up a new garage and will be using the lift for the Viper but also to...

    another noise question

    OK, I know noise questions are difficult without hearing them, but here goes.... The car is a '98 RT/10 and it started making this sound recently. The sound is only when starting moving from a stopped position and seems to be worse when starting forward with the wheels turned (either way). It...

    B&M ripper shifter

    OK, I need some quick help here. I just installed the above B&M Ripper short-shifter and it's not exactly what I expected. When the car is in neutral, the shifter doesn't center between 3 and 4 like the stock shifter. However, when doing the 2-3 shift, you can shift as fast as you want...

    what an a$$

    Do any of you remember the a$$ who came on the site around 6 months ago with the idea that people would pay to smash up a Viper? He would sell advertising space in a website and make videos of people damaging the viper for you. Well, we all predicted that he would lose a bundle and he insisted...

    half-shaft upgrades

    I haven't been able to find a definitive answer to this question in prior posts, so I'm sorry if this has been done before. I am considering adding an NOS system with a 225 shot to an almost stock '98 RT. Most of the time I will be using radials, but I do sometimes run slicks. Has anyone...

    Another first run at track post

    I've never been to a track before, so this was quite a learning experience as well as a lot of fun! It was very cold here tonight so traction seemed to be my limiting factor on speed. To much gas out of the hole and the tires would just spin (on Pilot Sport street radials too). Still, overall I...

    Hey! Whatever happened to.....

    that "Vipair Day". You know the one where they would install the Vipair and only charge for whatever horsepower you gained? Wasn't that supposed to be in mid March somewhere? Just wondering how many went for free. :rolleyes:

    quick question

    Don't most tracks have a rule that vehicles beating 11.99 1/4mile time must have a rollcage (our local track has that rule)? If so, do these cages make it harder to get into and out of the car? How much do they cost and what kind of shop puts them in? Any other tips? Thanks a lot! :confused:

    Please Help!

    Just went to start installing new T&D rocker arms and the instructions blew my mind! Can anyone tell me, do you have to pull the heads like it says or can you just unscrew the old arms and screw in the new? Thanks in advance! :bonker:

    Just found out I have....

    a rear main seal leak. It is so bad that my clutch barely works (covered with oil). I can put my emergency brake on, let out my clutch in first gear, and the car wont move or stall! It just keeps running in gear and not moving. So, my question is does anyone have any idea of the repair cost for...

    Help! Does this sound like a clutch problem?

    Hi! I just started having a new problem over the weekend. I notice when I go WOT the engine will respond immediately with increase RPMs but it doesn't feel like the tranny responds for a couple of seconds after the clutch is all the way out. It's like you go into the new gear but the car has to...

    Great Christmas present!

    Just wanted to make a post to thank the guys at Partsrack for giving me a great Christmas. I spent a couple weeks in Texas with the Army and my wife called Partsrack and said "my husband wants a new exhaust system that starts with a C". A new Corsa cat-back got sent out the next day and was...

    Supercharging vs. Twin turbo

    Can anyone tell me what the cost of adding a TT is (approx) to a Gen II...and what kind of power difference there is. Is there a big advantage of Supercharging vs.Turbo? Also, is there a lot of extra maintenance involved? I live in a rural area of Mississippi where most shops have never seen...

    Radar Detectors

    Just a note....I keep seeing everyone praise the Valentine One radar detector which I hadn't heard of, so I started some research on it. Interestingly enough, while it is very highly rated, there are others which are just as good (or better) for less money! I have the Escort Passport 8500 and...

    Best place for parts

    Without having to look through months of posts....can anyone tell me what your favorite places (internet sites, etc) are for getting viper parts? e.g. I will be needing a hard top for a red '98 RT/10 in the near future. Thanks in advance!!

    Help for insomnia!

    Help! I have never even seen a Viper in person, but I just bought a '98 RT/10 which I pick up this coming weekend. I am so excited I can't even sleep! After reading the posts here, it looks like I won't be disappointed when I bring it home, either! She is red with only 8000 miles and I'll add...
