    Oil Pan Gasket 1997 GTS

    Oil pan gaskets CAN be reused if in good shape. OEM is not currently available as far as I know, but Dan Lesser does sell an aftermarket gasket made by Cometic.

    Michigan Viper Owners - Windshield Rock Chip Repair

    No local recommendation but confirm with whoever does it that they will drill the chip prior to applying the epoxy. Some folks will simply slather the epoxy on and it won't make the chip disappear nearly as well as if you drill a small hole to inject the epoxy.

    Motor Mounts - Where to buy

    At 63k it is likely yours are shot. You can jack up the engine (with a board or some other cushioning device) to see if yours are beginning to tear apart- typically the drivers side is the one that goes. Symptoms of bad mounts include a shifter that moves a lot under throttle (due to an engine...

    GTS owners with open exhaust (no cats)...

    My car hasn't had cats on it since I acquired it in 2015 and there is zero exhaust smell in the cabin. I would take a look at your vents, something must not be sealing up right.

    Put new wheels on the ACR

    It seems juvenile to belittle a generation of cars within a generation when 99.9% of the world wouldn't even recognize the differences :rolaugh:

    Put new wheels on the ACR

    All I'm saying is that it doesn't make sense to try to divide a group of Viper owners, which is already exceptionally small to begin with, by lobbing insults at an even smaller subset of cars.

    Put new wheels on the ACR

    With so few Vipers made it just doesn't make sense to try to alienate a group based on something so trivial. I know it's "car culture" to try to demean anyone with something different than yourself but that negativity is unnecessary. I wince a little every time I see someone make these dumb...

    Put new wheels on the ACR

    I think the fitment is great; it's good to see Americans finally recognizing that spacing is critical. I thought the wheels looked much better with the fresh coating but I'm also a fan of the original ACR wheels so either way would work for me. Music/continuity of the video gets the views up and...

    1997 GTS Driver's Side Window went down and won't go back up

    You are correct that a proper 1996/1997 window switch is discontinued, and nearly impossible to find. However, you can easily remove the plastic cover from the factory switch and install it on the switch that was made for early 90's Dodge Daytonas and Grand Caravans- they are identical. If it...

    1997 Viper GTS Oil Change

    Mopar Filter 8.5 quarts of either 10W30 or 0W40 (I buy two 5-quart containers of M1 0W40) If you have any seepage around the oil drain plug you can either replace the washer gasket with the Mopar part ($20 at the dealer) or get a generic gasket at Napa for $1.99 (part number NOE 7041093). If...

    Power window issues on '96 GTX

    The fuse panel is near the brake master cylinder, under the hood, on the driver side. Good luck!

    Power window issues on '96 GTX

    If none of that is working then it is either Fuse 12 (30 Amp) or the ignition switch itself. Check the fuse first, if it's good then it is likely the switch. The ignition switch is pretty simple to swap- you just need to remove the column adjust stalk, the plastic cover under the steering column...

    Power window issues on '96 GTX

    When the windows aren't working- do the signal lights work? Is the airbag light on? Does the blower motor work? All of these circuits are fed through the ignition switch which can sometimes make intermittent connection and cause all of the circuits to act bizarre. Try "jiggling" the key in the...

    Stock thermostat temp on 97 GTS?

    For anyone preparing to change their thermostat, be aware there is a chance one of the three retaining screws may cause you grief. Nothing that can't be resolved but it'd benefit you to know what you're up against before tearing into it-...

    2002 gts gas cap/cover corrosion

    California Chrome can chrome it for $150 but you need to disassemble it which can be tricky (and there's a good chance of damaging one of the pins that hold it together) http://www.calchrome.com/wheels_dodge.php This place can polish it for $190 and no disassembly is required...

    2002 ACR final edition

    BC makes a decent set of coilovers for cheap ($1300). Next step up would be KW (about $3500) followed by the Penske's and Moton's.

    Well, as luck would have it, Stage 6 phoned me back and it appears they are available to do the inspection. Sorry to waste the forum's time; it appears this request has been resolved.

    GTS Inspection in Jacksonville FL?

    Hello, I am in the process of purchasing a '96 GTS that is located in Jacksonville, FL. I am on the opposite side of the country (WA State) and am in need of a qualified person in the Jacksonville area who can perform a pre-purchase inspection on my behalf. The obvious answer is Roe Racing...

    Gen 2 GTS Water Pumps almost all gone

    Always the option of rebuilding the stock pump. There are several specialized vendors who offer this service for rare water pumps that are out of production (Ferrari, etc.).
