    Had to take it out :)

    Got mine out yesterday for the first time in 5 months. :D .................not driving it for so long seems to make you appreciate it even more.

    Frustration at the pumps!

    I think it's a problem with the EVAP vent solenoid sticking closed when hot. Or on cars that do this in any temp, it's closed all the time. Vehicles that are driven on dirt roads have this problem a lot. The vent filter gets restricted with dirt. Then it doesn't matter if the solenoid works or...

    What is this "GForce" thing?

    Those G-Force boxes are dumb. They are as effective as decals/stickers on the car. Looks like the car still has the stock exhaust w/crossover pipe. That thing is dumb too. -pretty much the only thing that sucked about gen III Vipers. Most of us have taken that off for -less cabin heat, less...

    What tune do I have??

    Go drive the car and wind it up and see when it starts bouncing off the limiter. If it gets close to 6500, I'd quit there and know that the limiter is definitely raised or disabled. If you don't want to spin the motor that fast,..........why bother with wondering about the rev limit anyway?

    How rare is my car?

    Oil leak or common problem???

    Just say they're some minor maintenance issues that need attention -no big deal, then send her to the shoe store with a credit card to distract her from the car problems.

    Lowered by 2"

    Put the back to stock ride height so you can enjoy driving it. The lowered cars are a little stiffer.

    Oil leak or common problem???

    ......................yeah, I've replaced the filler cap O-ring too now that I think about it. No bulletin on the P/S issue. Just fix it and go on. -in a few years, repeat..................................

    Oil leak or common problem???

    Before you do all that gasket stuff, make sure it's not the P/S pressure line fitting at the pump. It likes to leak all over everything and make you think the car is on fire. -same crap happened to me.

    Who's tried the new Hoosiers?

    I've been buying from 'Hoosier Tires Direct'. They've recently expanded their business into other products like brakes and such. Now they are easily found as 'Competition Motorsports'. They list 315/30-18 as an available size. Brian is the sales rep I usually deal with. Give them a try...

    Market Value on my 97 gts with gold package?

    Newbie intro

    "Better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all." .........there are a lot of people that never even get to see a Viper in person. You've had 3, that makes you an honorary Viper guy for life. :)

    Newbie intro

    Sideways isn't always a bad thing. I used to drive my Viper sideways a lot.............because I found it to be very entertaining. :D I guess I still do that occasionally, but only when I have street tires on the car. -which isn't very often anymore.

    NYC/Washington D.C. visit end of march - Any Viper-related things to see?

    I hope you have a good time during your visit to America. ......one thing though, we drink our beer cold over here.

    This dude is crazy...

    well.........................he wants 55k for it, with all the extra original stuff. :rolleyes: so, apparently he's asking for 55k. :dance: It will be a great deal for him if someone buys the car for that. :eater:

    Crash in PA...

    Drinking and driving a Viper. :nono: It is very fortunate that he didn't wipe out a bunch of bystanders, a school bus full of kids, or a family in their minivan on their way to grandma's birthday party.

    Downshift to brake?

    I think you are just a guy that obviously enjoys your cars in a more laid back manner. -not very typical for Viper guys. I think Nine Ball's post is more directed to the OP's original question than your post. As he was asking if downshifting is a good substitute for brakes to slow the car down...

    Downshift to brake?

    Wow. :omg: That is kinda what I was trying to say.................but in a nicer more reasonable fashion. Thanks for the 'straight talk' perspective. :2tu:

    Downshift to brake?

    The brakes are for slowing the car down. The clutch is for shifting gears. Downshifting as a habit to decelerate the car is a bad idea. It is not an issue of 'the cost of brakes vs the cost of a clutch'. Downshifting instead of brakes is poor driving technique that will make the rest of us...

    Who's tried the new Hoosiers?

    Great, more grip and seemingly longer lasting is a dream come true. ;) ..........softer sidewalls .. :rolleyes: Thanks for the response. :2tu:

    Who's tried the new Hoosiers?

    :dance: Hoosier has a new compound available in Viper sizes now. R7. Supposed to work better in cooler temps and last a little longer that the R6. I am going to use them this season, and was wondering if anyone has already got some seat time with these. Curious to know if they feel...
