    I need some GL-ASS! Well Kinda.........Anyone?

    Re: I need a broken windshield! Well Kinda.........Tator? Anyone? Why did you not go through your insurance company. Windshield replacement is generally only $50.00 deductible and does not go against your insurance record. I just had one replaced in my 95 and the glass company even waved the...

    Questions about lowering a Gen I

    I think you may have a major problem with tires rubbing if you go to 19 inch rims after lowering the car. I have had problems with 17 inch rims rubbing after installing the kit.

    Silver State Classic - who's going after VOI8?

    Re: Silver State Classic - who\'s going after VOI8? I have done it 3 times. Once in my Vette and twice in the Viper with a target speed of 160. If you are going to try to win anything you will need a navigator. Have fun.

    clutch pedal sloppy??????????

    That busing has to be the least expensive part on a Viper but considering the labor involved, my size (6'1") and the fact that I have replaced the damn thing 3 times in a year and a half it has gotten to be a pretty expensive part. I am going to try threading it this time. I did find that it...

    Does anyone keep their Vipers stock or do you Mod??? Poll

    Re: Does anyone keep their Vipers stock or do you Mod??? Poll I always like a toilet that is a little different then every body else. I have never left a car or a bike stock. Many after market parts and accessories are much better then the factory equipment.

    Side curtain repairs

    Unless they are real deep scratches or torn there is no need to replace them. Go to tap plastic and get their plastic polishing kit and you should be able to make them look good again.

    Cruise Control

    Installing one in a Gen 1 Viper is much more difficult then a Gen 2 because of the dual throttle cables and the way they attach to the gas pedal.

    I have installed many Pager alarms on my own vehicles and a lot of friends vehicles including motorcycles. There are a few different ones on the market. Don't get the one that only has a 1/4 mi. range. Get one that has a 4-5 mile range. Range depends on the terrain and antenna. The best...

    Silver State Classic in Nevada - has anyone here done it?

    I have done it 5 times. 3 in a Vette and 2 in my 95 Viper. You should not have any problems with 140 just make sure your tires are in good shape. I never ran it to win anything, just for the fun of running it. If you are going to try for a win you should have a navigator. The last time I...

    So Has Anyone Ever Gotten Caught In The Snow With Their Viper?

    I got stuck in a snowstorm returning from The Silver State Challenge in Nevada 2 years ago as I was leaving Reno. A drive that normally takes about 3 hours took 13 hours. Driving that car in the rain is scarry enough. In the snow it is terrifying.

    will battery fit w/top post?

    2 years ago I cut the top post on an Optima battery and I didn't know you should not do that. Got 100 miles from home and the car would not start. Last thing I thought about was a bad battery. After about 4 frustrating hours of checking everything else I narrowed the problem down to the...
