    Wire connections for 96 GTS

    Where would I go about getting the black wire connectors at the end of my wiring harnesses? I specifically need the connectors labeled C113 and C301 in the 96 GTS service manual. They're both fried and too far into the head to replace. I would rather not simply hard wire them. Any...

    Wiper Motor FYI

    I thought I'd share what I recently learned in fixing my wiper motor problem. I've had the problem where my passenger side wiper motor was acting up and colliding with the drivers side arm. I never tried to fix it because in Alabama cars don't have to go through safety inspections every year...

    Emissions/saftey inspection

    I've recently moved from Birmingham, AL to Memphis, TN. I'm wondering if there will be any emissions or saftey checks to go through when registering my car. I don't have cats and I also have the dreaded windshield wiper motor problems where they just quite working one day. I still have...

    Vec 2 as rev limiter?

    Does a VEC 2 allow you to easily set a rev limit for the engine like an MSD ignition does? Something simple like interchangeable cards? I'm thinking about having some paint work done and with all the horror stories of shops taking vipers for "test drives" I figured this would be some cheap...

    Simple question: Can I use a VEC2 to recalibrate my speedometer after a gear change or is the kit from ROE Racing my only option? Thanks

    Question About Engine Tuning

    Alright, trust me this is not something I'm just going to jump into, but I was curious so here goes. What would I need to do an engine tune to my 96 GTS? I have the car and a laptop. From what I understand I need the following: - a laptop or handheld device to run datalogging software -...

    MAJOR wheel trouble (overtorqued lugs)

    So I did a very stupid thing and now I need any advice I can get. In order to remove the lugs nuts on my car I needed to use a breaker bar. In my infinite wisdom I USED A BREAKER BAR TO PUT THE LUGS BACK ON!!! (I now know that about 80 ft-lbs in more than enough torque to keep the wheels on)...

    Any paint guys? Strange problem (pics)

    This is only happening on the panel that comprises of the roof and hatch parts so I'm positive this area is repainted. My question is what did the previous owner do to screw it up? The weird part is that not one flake of paint has come off, it's almost like it's shrinking?!?! It...

    Bad sound coming from my front end

    A few weeks ago from out of nowhere I started getting this sound of metal on metal coming from my front passenger wheel area. The noise would only STOP when I applied the brakes. It was also a rotational noise, starting and stopping very quickly. I pulled the tire and found that the rotors...

    When to get new rotors

    So this may be a really dumb question, but can viper rotors be turned more than normal car rotors. The only reason I ask is because the wear lip on my front rotors is about the depth of a dime and the parts stores around here tell me that they won't touch them since they are outside of their...

    Are brembo brakes stock on a 96 GTS?

    It looks like I need new rotors and pads and I've noticed the calipers and pads are Brembo brand. Are brembo brakes stock on a 96 GTS? I know they are for the srt-10's. The rotor is 13" and not slotted, dimpled, or drilled in any way. The brakes look exactly like these (not mine) which...

    New owner questions

    I purchased a 96 GTS last weekend and after a week of driving I have a few questions. I don't have an owners manual so I figured I'd just ask here. 1. How do I operate the alarm remote? I can't get my car to fully disarm unless the door is propped open. This is REALLY annoying since I...

    got a viper, first problem

    Well I just bought a 96 GTS this weekend. Anyway, sometime during the drive from Florida the radiator fan went out. Come to find out the positive wire fried in two and stopped the fan from getting power. The fan still runs when power is supplied but the wire fried up into the connector piece...
