    Advice on 1999 GTS Purchase with title issues

    Original ACR/BBS wheels were 18", not 19". It's all depend on your financial situation, you are not going to find a "no issue" Gen2 for low to mid 20, so if you can't afford to spend more money, buy it and enjoy it.

    Viper Track Event at Buttonwillow Jan 17-18, 2015

    Sure can: let assume that the break even point is reached at 55 drivers. Make sense since it what they say they need to run the event. Between the entry fee from those 55 drivers ( $21,725) and the "sponsorship money" referenced by Dan in it's post, all costs, the ones I listed + West coast...

    Viper Track Event at Buttonwillow Jan 17-18, 2015

    Seems to have touched a raw nerve here.... AZTVR: There must be at least 500 events going on every year at California 7 road racing tracks. Do you really think that 1 or even a few more will make any difference? Did I try to advertise the name of my business? Nope. So that has nothing to do...

    Viper Track Event at Buttonwillow Jan 17-18, 2015

    Since you proposed it, would be great if you would share the finances. With my long experience in this business I could maybe show you some ways to be more cost efficient or save money.

    Viper Track Event at Buttonwillow Jan 17-18, 2015

    Not only am I a Viper owner (00GTS) but I also run an open-track/race club in California, including at BW. The cost of running a weekend event at BW is about $20K, inclusive of everything, meaning track, ambulance, tow, insurance, corner workers, etc. If my maths are correct, 55 driver X $395 =...

    Replacing oxygen sensors, is it actually needed and worth it?

    100% BS. To start, time has nothing to do with OS getting "bad". If that was the case manufactures/dealers will have to rotate/trash their inventory every 3 to 5 years?????????????? Mileage do have an impact on OS but usually they are good for 100K miles at a minimum. So let see, carbon...

    not feeling real good about my 01 RT/10

    A " regular''01 GTS, meaning not an ACR, did not have a sticker of $86K. Take about $10K off this figure. Curious to see/know what type of window sticker you got

    Viper forced to go to STAR smog program in California

    Please advise before i buy!

    As a prospective buyer, you are a little worried about the car having been in an accident and want to use it as a leverage to get a better price on the car. As an owner, when the time come to sell the car, you will be facing the same situation, but in reversed roles, with any potential buyers...

    Best Engine Oil for the GTS

    Kind of sad, less than 200 miles/year. What is the point to have a viper if you don't drive it?

    Best Engine Oil for the GTS

    Changing oil every 3,000 miles, except in a few specific situations is a complete waste of time, money and energy. This "3,000" schedule have been promoted for ever by.... you guess who?: oil companies and business that sell you oil changes

    01-02 ACR Shock Evaluation Question

    Quote "The ACRs also had a different oil filter adapter that bypassed the filter during hard acceleration preventing oil starvation. completely wrong. On a non ACR car, a control valve shut off oil flow to the cooler when oil pressure is below 30psi. (was mostly done for A/C reason) On a ACR...

    Rare Viper to be Crushed

    That the cars have no emission control has nothing to do with why Fiat decided to crush them. The only reason is money/legal liability due to a couple of those, not-for-the-road cars , being involved in traffic accidents and costing a bunch of money to Fiat due to lawsuits. You can't blame Fiat...

    Gen II and Gen III/IV Comparison

    S2000 push button start

    One of the thing that I never understood. Now instead of 1 step start, you need 2 steps. It would make sense to have a push button start if you had a proximity key/fob that you can keep in your pocket.

    Overcooling ?

    much colder than engine specs/design is as bad than overheating. #1 issue would be the lubrication, you have moisture in the oil and that need to be removed by having the oil hot enough.

    Overcooling ?

    must have a problem with the thermostat. Once warmed up, the minimum temperature should be pretty close to the thermostat rating.
