    Bought warped wheel from VPA. Tried to contact them but no response. Any suggestions?

    UPDATE: I've heard back -- see below. Easiest to just copy/paste the email I sent them 3 weeks ago: Keith did email back at that time (3 weeks ago) reminding me of the new leadership at VPA and asking me to be patient while he looked into it. Totally reasonable and so I gave him two weeks...

    Buying new wheels, what to do about tire pressure sensors?

    I've bought a new set of wheels through VPoA and a set of pressure sensors to go with them without really thinking about it ("I need valve stems!"). Eventually I'm planning on getting a set of track tires for my current wheels and swapping out wheels when I take my car to the track. I realize...

    Anything I should know before powder coating my wheels?

    I have a set of Razors on my Viper but am looking to go from polished to black. Is there anything I should know before getting them powder coated? Anything to watch out for? I've never had wheels powder coated before.

    Removing the door panel?

    How do you go about removing the door panel? I had a new window regulator installed but the window is up slightly too high when in the down position. Not enough to be a problem but I am super picky and want to lower it slightly to match the other side and to protect it more.

    Hand break adjustment? Not holding car on hills

    Recently I parked on a decently steep hill. I pulled the hand brake all the way up, put it in gear, and let my foot off the brake only to find the car immediately started rolling quickly. The hand break holds the car decent enough on slight hills but is pretty worthless on steeper hills. How...

    Rock magnet? Car is chipped to hell

    My car is attracting rocks like crazy and I've never driven on a gravel road or anything like that. :( Any suggestions on how to avoid this? I think I'm going to try getting it resprayed and then wrapped close to the wheel but I can't wrap that far back to the heat.

    Any guesses when Gen V wheels will be purchasable?

    I had been on and off considering painting my razor wheels black but after seeing the photo Ralph posted today, I just gotta have some black Gen V wheels instead! Based on what happened with the Gen III and Gen IV wheels, when do you guys guess that the Gen V wheels will be available...

    Any value in a set of old PS2 tires?

    I'm replacing the factory Pilot Sport 2 tires (manufactured in July 2007) on my car with a set of brand new Pilot Super Sports. Is there any value or reason to hang onto the old tires? Plenty of tread left but they are 5 years old (one of the reasons I'm replacing them, besides switching to a...

    Skip shift eliminator for 2008?

    The skip shift thing is driving me nuts. Mostly out of force of habit from driving my other car which has shorter gears, I sometimes try to shift into second fairly early and get locked out of 2nd gear. Coasting through an intersection isn't the greatest of ideas and of course 4th would lug like...

    ACR wheels on a non-ACR?

    I'm strongly considering running black wheels on my car. I'm considering powder coating my razors black but I'm also thinking about switching to the already-black ACR wheels instead...

    To protective film or to not protective film?

    Now that I actually have a car where I care about it's paint and it's potentially worth the cost, I'm considering getting one of those 3M chip prevention films for the front nose, behind the rear wheels, etc. I've done a bit of searching here on the forums but I can't seem to find a general...

    Fulfilled a 17+ year old dream today

    Fulfilled a 17+ year dream today I've wanted a Viper since I was 10 years old (1994), if not longer. My mom even ran across an old Christmas list of mine from that year where I listed a Viper as my dream car. :rolaugh: I won the eBay auction for this 2008 convertible about 2 months ago, but...

    iPhone kit?

    I bought a kit for my Mustang that pretends to be an external CD changer and allows me to play music off my iPhone over my car's speakers. The only kinds of kits I'm finding for a SRT-10 though is the wired FM transmitter kind though (you tune the radio to a certain frequency). Does anyone...

    Things to check for when buying a used SRT-10?

    Apologies if this is the wrong place for this thread or if there are already existing threads covering this, but I was unable to find them. I've dreamed of owning a Viper ever since the RT/10 came out when I was a kid. I finally have the financial means to fulfill that dream, but I need some...
