    Got any posters lying around you want to get rid of?

    Looking to put up a couple of 24x36" posters up in the garage. I currently have the red Gen5 in a barn poster and looking for a different one to put next to it. Prefer either Gen 2 or Gen 5's, stock or racecars.

    FS: 18" stock wheels with tires 99-02 Gen 2

    Someone’s gotta want these! This is a nice used set of factory 99-02 Dodge Viper chrome wheels. Front wheels: Mostly ok, one of the wheels has about 3 little bubbles on the face of the chrome. Both wheels have the unpolished chrome coating peeling internally on the inside of the rim. Not sure...

    Need a quick rear wheel to rotor measurement on the 00-02 factory 18's

    Can someone please take a quick measurement of the rotor face to inner edge of the factory "dog dish" 18" wheel found on 00-02 model Vipers? The picture attached shows my stock 17" wheel measuring just over 2". Essentially I want to measure caliper clearance to the 18" wheel spokes on the...

    Gen 5 venom wheels

    Why don't you like Eibachs?

    I've read on here that a few of your are dumping your Eibachs for other setups. Why? Harsh ride quality, bounciness, etc? Comtemplating a set of Eibachs on stock Koni's vs. doing nothing (4x4) vs. the results of the trials of the BC coilovers.

    Suspension spring compressor recommendations?

    When putting on my spring caps, I used a couple of "fork" rentals from Autozone and used them together to get the stock springs to compress just enough to slide in the caps. This won't work for completely removing the stock springs due to the way I had to mount it. I have the screw & hook...

    Alignment shop recommendations ATL OTP South?

    I have some spring caps I may put on here in a week or two and I believe I should probably get an alignment afterward. Any trusted shops you guys recommend that you've personally had your Viper aligned at (they know what they're doing specifically on this car). Thanks :drive:

    Alpine KTP-445U mini-amp audio upgrade

    This is a followup to a previous audio install post of mine: http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/655610-Kicker-KS6.2-amp-CVT65-4-speaker-install-pix-amp-review-(along-with-Alpine-CDE-102) I first got started with cars by doing car audio, and the main goal of this build was a simple upgrade just...

    Crank bolt pin kit recommended on stock engines?

    I was looking at the crank bolt pin kit online (is Roe the only person that makes this?) and was wondering if this is necessary on a stock motor? I know they put them on the S/C cars due to them backing out. Also, how exactly do you remove or tighten the bolt? I put a socket on the bolt to...

    Eibachs with stock 17's? Too low?

    While I may upgrade to 18/19's in the future, I'm currently curious to know if anyone has any feedback or pictures regarding dropping your cars on Eibach springs and the stock 17" wheels. The wheel gap is pretty large on my stock 97 GTS, but my concern is how low the front bumper sits...

    Surprised no one ever made 17" 5 spoke replicas in a larger size?

    I love the factory '97 polished 5 spokes, there's so much detail in the way the wheel is designed compared to other generations' factory wheels. With all the wheel replica companies out there, I'm surprised no one ever made these into an 18" replica set or 19" (rear) replica set. The Gen3...

    Good place to buy sneaky pete hat or original VIPER logo hat?

    Looking for a nice looking sneaky pete hat or a hat that has the original Gen1/2 VIPER logo; I see the other logos more often and along with Gen3/4 VIPER and SRT hats, and a few cheap/low quality knockoff looking ones on google. Anybody with a good source?

    Made it on the cover of Viper magazine...

    Representing for the Gen1/2's! I'm the B/W in the top left corner. I distinctively remember turning right instead of left at the entrance to the speedway, went all around the speedway for about 15 minutes, and then finally found the line although we had to go to the back. The two green...

    Custom plate finally arrived

    Finally got it, only took 118 days. It used to be 30 days, then it was 90, and they were late so I had to go back for a second temporary. I was hoping I'd get it before VOI, and got lucky as it just got here. This has been my screen name on various things for over 15 years, so it works out...

    Kicker KS6.2 & CVT65-4 speaker install pix & review (along with Alpine CDE-102)

    Wanted to share my recent small audio upgrade. I wanted to use the factory speaker locations with factory wiring and just wanted to increase the sound quality a little bit, all on a budget (since after all, the stock cam and Borla exhaust is the real audio system on this car). I also installed...

    '10 ACR shift knob looks and fits great (w/ pix)

    Hey guys, wanted to share that I found a factory looking shift knob that is slightly shorter than the regular 99-02 knob. Installed it today and it looks and fits great; it's off the '10 ACR and I beleive comes in both red and black stitching; it's the same style just with a slightly shorter...

    Homelink rear view mirror?

    The rear view mirror is a little small to begin with, and I'd like to replace it with a slightly larger one while at the same time adding homelink for the garage opener. I don't want to run any batteries but I can't find a mirror that's battery based. Are there any 12V wires underneath the...

    JL Audio C2-600's and 8W1's - any additional items needed?

    I plan on changing out the headunit to something that has an ipod/3.5mm jack and also plan on using the stock amp (seems to provide enough loudness for me and I'm honestly just looking for a simple upgrade). Has anybody used the C2-650 over the 600? I've read of issues on here where 6.5's...

    New owner! Gas smell question

    Hey guys, just pulled it into my garage. Loving it so far! I will make a new thread with pictures soon. First question is my garage is now filled with a pretty strong smell of unburnt gas. It's not a hard gas smell, but it's not a full exhaust smell either, it's in the middle. Any ideas...

    97 vs 02 differences...

    So I know this is a noob question and yes I've done some research, so bear with me :) I've loved the Viper since I first saw a comparison test in a 1997 Car and Driver magazine. Well, I think this is finally the year when I'm going to live the dream and finally purchase. I'll always love the...
