    This dude is crazy...

    I'm cautiously hopeful the next generation of iconic car collectors will care as much for what we all here love. Something tells me though that high-revving V6s like GTRs will be of more interest to that generation.

    Hard top Question

    I'm thinking of rigging an engine lift to R&R the top. They have lift capacities in excess of 6 feet; deal breaker could be whether there is enough clearance beneath the Viper (well at least my lowered one) to wheel it under.

    My viper was keyed very bad "graphic pictures "

    I'm sick, this is awlful Wayne. Where were you parked, WPB industrial park, PBIA?

    Takata Airbag Issue

    I know the issue affects mainly Honda vehicles beginning around 2001, but has anyone researched whether the ammonium nitrate-charged bags made it into the Gen II's? Would rather avoid shrapnel severing my carotid artery if you know what I mean.:crazy2:

    Speaking of High GTS Prices...

    Blue Marlin is a 5 minute ride from my house if anyone needs local eyes on it. This dealer typically carries 20-footer classics, with a lot of overseas buyers.

    P/S pulley battle...help

    Agreed. But those Dremel cutoff blades are very thin and brittle; they shatter easily the moment you put any side pressure on them. My experience anyway trying to cut enough relief cuts in the metal pulley hub to free it from the shaft.

    Puller didn't work for me. Go straight for the sawzall and be done with it.

    Need some advice on a product from roe racing

    Put one on the 'new and improved' version on my '01 about 3 years ago, no issues. Just get the adjustment *** dialed in where you want it and forget about it. Some criticize it as being the 'Roe battery drain kit' but that has not been my experience (perhaps that's why it was improved?). The...

    Challenger Hellcat gets 707HP!

    The real question is whether the test drive will be a Red Fob one to taste that palindromic '707' HP! Very limited numbers for sure, with a price to match. I love it.

    Hellcat versus Viper transmission

    Does anyone have actual upshift time improvements (milliseconds) the DCT offers over the typical manual gearbox? I've seen a comparison between the VW DSG (8 ms) and Ferrari Enzo manual (150 ms). Quite a striking difference. But to restate the obvious, a DSG/DCT for the Gen 5 would be a winner...

    Please help with air conditioning

    Have your system's suction pressure checked and go from there. A shot of R134a refrigerant may be all you need (worked for me).

    Legal advice/tips regarding failed 06 FE purchase?

    Better being wiser at $500 than regretful at $50K. Forget chasing a legal drama (what is your time worth after all?) and continue your search. And never rely on Carfax again (I sure don't).
