    New Poll---Buying a Gen.V SRT Coupe or a Gen. V GTS Coupe or........

    I like the really low look of the front end/hood, but then the windshield and roof pop up too much to make the necessary head room for tracking etc. I want to see how low and sleek looking the vert will be before I decide on buying one. Otherwise I will keep my lowered 2001 I have now..

    Hazard Lights Flashing

    Went out to start it up yesterday, and it fired right up. But I noticed none of the blinkers or hazard flashing lights work, yet the blinkers do blink twice, when you disarm the alarm? Brake lights work too, so is there a flasher relay, that went out? Seems weird that the hazard lights would be...

    Hazard Lights Flashing

    I do use a real nice Griots garage trickler and had done that a few days before my 100 mile drive, so my battery should be fully charged especially after driving 100 miles? I have gone thru a few batteries. I'm pretty sure I have one of those Pro-Form sp? batteries in there? Seems weird that if...

    Hazard Lights Flashing

    I went out to the garage this morning to find my Viper's hazard lights flashing? I have not driven it since last Wednesday, and the keys are in a lock box, in a safe? I went and got the keys, and pushed the unlock button, and the car rapidly beeped at me for a second, then the lights kept...

    Burning plasic smell and smoke out exhaust pipes

    My car is a 2001 and I am normally aspirated now. No super charger any more. Plus coolant was under the right side of the engine area. Not a lot, probably about 3 ozs. on the ground.

    Burning plasic smell and smoke out exhaust pipes

    :( I started my Viper up and saw lots of white smoke coming out the exhaust with a burning plastic smell, and turned it off, and noticed coolant under the car as well? It does not smell like oily smoke, so I am assuimng coolant is getting into my intake, or cylinders? Hopefully my Viper tech...

    Recent Viper crash in Miami on Route 1

    First of all, I have never taken my Viper to a car wash. Second, it is always wet and your feet are always wet when you enter the car, and the car wash guys feet are wet, so pedals are wet, and you can slip off of them. So I don't have any clucth pedal cars that I go to the car wash in, only...

    billet valve covers

    Gary, That is a good price. You probably should hook up with guys like JonB to get more exposure. I used to make these billet valve covers about 5-6 years ago, and trust me I know how much work goes into these. Most people think $990 is too much, but if they understood, that the cost of the...

    Newer Gen Wheels on a Gen 2

    Bill, I went to Viper Parts of America, and they only show one set of wheels for sale? I would like to see what a set of polished razor wheels would look like on a Gen II 2001 RT/10

    WARFANG Passed away a few months ago at 36

    Lily Lee (Josh - Warfang's wife) would like to thank everyone for their love and support. She is reading the forum and is very touched by all the heartfelt messages about Josh. She is amazed at how many people knew him and liked him without ever meeting him in person.

    WARFANG Passed away a few months ago at 36

    I just found out Warfang who posted here 6,913 times passed away a few months ago. I only know because his wife asked the Northern California Viper Club to help sell his car. I did not know Josh Lee, 36 years old was Warfang, until I saw the photos of his car, and saw that it was a 97 Red GTS...

    Lug Nut tightening Spec for Vipers

    We had the rear wheel tested, with one Ted had lying around, and they put 2,000 pounds on the hub hanging out on a 6 foot pipe and ran it through 100,000 cycles to see if the center will break out. It passed ;-) I wish I knew where that wheel we tested was. I think Ted is using it as a coffee...

    Lug Nut tightening Spec for Vipers

    chop a new 5 spoke wheel in half like you did in the cross section above, and it too will look scary. I have driven about 10,000 miles on these wheels now, done burn outs, spun out a couple of times, and they are doing fine. I am the only one that drives on these, so I prefer not to put them in...
