    Belanger vs corsa

    Corsa fit perfectly here. No issues and no drone.

    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...
