    GTS Value Depreciation/Appreciation?

    To the original poster, if you're that paranoid about a Viper purchase, maybe you'r really a Miata guy.

    Very clean underneaths on these Vipers. Nobody likes driving them ?

    What do you guys use to delete the cats?

    I made the mistake of removing the cats on my street Viper. Then I found out what that's like on a modern 8L performance motor. It's not 1969, and everyone behind me complained about the smoke. My cloths smelled of carbon after every ride. The sound was too laud and horrible. Especially...

    Squeeky Brakes

    My 2000 ACR also squeeks. That's why I googled this post. Good to know it's not something wierd just with my car. Thanks.

    I know I'm in for a world of bashing, but what are your thoughts of an LSX motor...

    Re: I know I'm in for a world of bashing, but what are your thoughts of an LSX motor. What's an LSX motor anyway?

    Oil pan gasket! Cracked in 5 places.

    Wow, that's pricey! I had mine out a few times when my car was 3 years old. I remember being impressed by the technology and it didn't need any gasket sealer, but yours is 15 years old now. I would clean the whole thing of oil, and put the old gasket back with "The Right Stuff" on both...

    So I pulled the cats and my car now sounds like crap, what should I do

    Put them back. That's what I did. The on board computer will be happier too.

    Missing Koni's

    Things happen to cars, when they've been around for 8+ years. In the case of a Viper, you can't judge it by mileage. People are dweebs, and will rack up normal miles on their fat SUV's, and only occasionally go out and beat their Viper. If you want a perfect car you should buy a new one.

    adjusting acr suspension, the knobs and how to work them

    Thank you. Good help those sheets. When I got my x-race acr six years ago, the thing was super low. I use the car only on the street, so I had to play with the shocks till the car cleared the speed bumps. They're pretty self explanetory really, but it's good to have proper instructions.

    Big Wing Viper

    High wings work ok. Dodge got banned from using it in Stock car racing because they worked too well. That was back in the sixties when there was a point to stock car racing.

    Replacing Your Heat Shields

    I fitted square screen mesh over all the existing old insulation on the car. Then I spread a layer of chimney cement over the top of that. I tryed not to make it too thick as the stuff is heavy. It did the job for ~ $50.

    Can't get my dealer to work on my viper

    You can't even remove the shocks on your Viper by yourself ???? You sure you don't want to run around in a nice new Porsche?

    Look at this Ebay listing...MUST SEE! SELLS ONLY KEY AND KEYFOB

    If Viper prices fall any lower, it won't be a stretch to imagine you own a Viper.

    great GTS commercial

    Aaah, the good old days when these were $100k + cars. Can't wait till the Ford GT gets left behind when the the $100k + only boys move on.

    How long have you owned your Viper???

    Bought my beautiful black 2000 ACR in October 2003 from a local classified ad. Turned out it was a Florida VGA car. It became a huge and expensive ordeal to certify it in my province. The Quebec government's inspectors "recommended" me to rebuild the rebuilt front corner smash for another...
