    Security system in Viper???????????

    Lock the door and wait for the security lamp to go from fast flash to slow flash, then try to start the car from inside with the doors shut, locked, and alarm set. The engine will not start. You are probably starting the car before the alarm actually sets.

    Anyone have their 2003 OBDII Emissions tested yet?

    The lamp flash routine does not show if you start the engine, simply key the ignition to "Run", and don't start the engine. If you start the engine, the light will go out completely and you won't be able to check readiness.

    Anyone have their 2003 OBDII Emissions tested yet?

    From the 2003 Viper owners manual page 74 "Malfuntion Indicator Light" - MIL light or engine light depending on what you like. "If certain self-diagnostic monitors are not complete, the light starts flashing 14 seconds after the key is switched on and will continue flashing for approximately 11...

    SRT Oil Capacity?

    I think the difference comes from wether you have a bone dry oil system or if you are doing a drain and fill. On a drain and fill (and filter), you'll only need 10 quarts. If you also drain the oil cooler (heat exchanger and lines) you'll need that 11th quart.

    Did anybody see the begining of the darlington race?!?

    They were probably the "Rumble Bee" Hemi Rams, not SRT-10's...

    1970 Hemi Challenger, $5000, See Your Local Dodge Dealer!

    Would someone please find Sam an SRT-10 ram he can buy for sticker or below!? :) To Sam's point... yeah, just wait a while and the prices will settle. This is not the only year that the trucks will be built. Why spend more on a truck than you would on say a nice 97-98 GTS? And also...

    20% better gas mileage in your SRT-10

    The steel belts in the tire prevent the outside diameter from increasing... so if you are seeing FE gains, it is due to rolling resistance decreases. Some of you may remember the days of fuel economy competitions in the 70's during which people would put as much as 100psi in a set of rib tires...

    srt 10ram wing ?

    Not only a tool kit, but you can take the wing off and remount it just behind the cab to keep it safe while it's not on the rear of the truck. (That feature may not help you if you are going to put motorcycles in the back. Enjoy!

    Proper way to get in/out of Viper?

    The car makes up for any lack of flexibility and/or grace you display during entry or dismount. Try getting in and out of a competition coupe... But seriously, open the door wide, go with the right foot into the footwell. Then depending on GTS or RT/10 you either swing your body in (duck for...

    The Mamba is here!!!

    I think kickinasp has got it right... if there were 200 built and 475 orders, I'd say that's a successful program. Just remember the ketchup and mustard edition? Now that was interesting. And out of curiousity, I dug up a photo of a real white mamba... they actually exist and come in (the...

    Mopar Performance Parts for SRT-10's

    Re: Mopar Performance Parts for SRT-10\'s The 3.55 gear will stop you from running your 0-60's in first gear won't it? Right now the stock gear is what allows the sub 4 second 0-60's. With the higher ratio you'll have to make a shift in prior to 60. But the 3.55 will feel a whole lot better...

    Question on SRT-10 Drivetrain Slack

    Hmmm... Exactly what 600hp BMW are you referring too... the BMW Williams F1? It runs a 10 cylinder of about 3liters, and I betcha at low speeds it clunks as it probably has no flywheel, just a little muliplate clutch. The badest production Bimmer is that 760iL with a whopping 438hp and no...

    Viper Window Sticker Question?

    I think this would be highly doubtful. I believe there are a lot of trade laws involving the factory application of what is know as the MORONEY label. And as such I don't think you can get a reprint. However probably all of the information that was on your original sticker can be found, and...

    New Quad Turbo "Super Chrysler" at Detroit Auto Show

    Re: New Quad Turbo TheHemi is probably about right... this car, if it achieves it's speed goals, will probably price between the Porsche GT and the Ferrari Enzo. My 2 cents would say $400,000 - $750,000 And what's with ME? "Mercedes Engineered"? The best part is how much of...

    SRT 03 or 04 what is best ???

    The 03 and the 04 are pretty close in terms of performance and content. One thing to consider with an 03 is wether the engine was one of the ones effected by the valve issue (low power output). It might be very hard to have the engine reworked in switzerland. And as any 03 or 04 is a grey...

    Dead SRT10-No electric life

    Sometimes to use the external key lock you have to push in on the door to relieve the pressure on the latch... Kind of push in with your hip as you turn the key and the door should release. Keep in mind that the door glass will probably still be up in the seal if the battery is dead... (or...
