    Quick ??? Need help

    Under 00 GTS in garage now. Want to disengage skipshift. Do I need to remove skid plate between frame rails to gain access? Anyone have a pic to post? Im peering into small access area just before skid plate and see several sensors. Not sure which is which.

    help/ advise with insurance

    Most people are ignorant when it comes to insurance and assume full coverage actually means something. Trust me, if you were to total your 2000 GTS, your insurance provider would probably want to settle for about $50K (if your lucky). Most carriers will take your premium $$$ and not even tell...

    Pros and Cons For Running No Cats On A 02 Viper?

    Lose the cats. I dont know differences with respect to this between 00 and newer cars, but my 00 GTS has rear simms from Apex and no cats. Get no funny smell, sounds incredible, side sills are ambient temp and cabin doesnt heat up as much. Great mod for the $$$.

    cat drop out (bypass) pipes

    TO Tom and all the other tree huggers: Exactly as others have said... save your concerns for someone who actually gives a s$%&!. There are bigger problems in the world than the emmissions spit out by a catless car. A newer well maintained vehicle with no cats has been known to pass an...

    HRE trade?????

    Dont really know. Im open to about anything. My HRE's are absolutely perfect, I am just more partial to the other styles. If anyone out there likes the 540's better and have a set of 546 or 547s , then get a hold of me. Never hurts to ask.

    HRE trade?????

    I have an absolutely flawless set of 19' Rear HRE 540's with 345 Pilots and 18" front 540's with Pilot 285s. Nothing wrong with the 540's but I absolutely love the 546/547 series. Just personal preference. I bought my GTS with the 540s. I think they are the same price as the 546/547 series...

    Smoke under hard decel, then accel??

    Have 00 GTS, rear O2 sims, no cats, intake, catback. I baby the car most always but yesterday was playing around and did the following: 1) Hard deceleration. Probably from 100 mph or so to about 10 mph. 2) Immediate hard acceleration up to about 50 mph. On this acceleration, I noticed...

    Does anyone here use the A/C?

    My 00 GTS runs with AC quite often. Even in 95 deg heat, temp rarely goes over 190 unless Im stopped idleing for more than 5 min., when it will creep up over 200 or so. But mostly stays about 190 rock solid no matter what. Guess Im lucky.

    Hot side sills

    I agree. Cut out the cats and get rear O2 sensors. My 00 GTS side sills run ambient temp, sounds great, no problems.

    Raced 03 cobra today

    Have mostly stock 00 GTS. Smooth tubes and Borla cat back. No cats and rear O2 sensors. Dont know exactly how far he was behind me as I was paying attention to the road, but would estimate 6 cars. He got a slight jump on me to about 50 mph. I was about a car length back not expecting it...

    Raced 03 cobra today

    1st time Id seen one on the street. Couldnt really tell it was an 03 as Im no mustang lover...but tag read 03cobra so it was a no brainer. Anyways, took off from about 20 mph side by side and pulled him to about 130 where I let off. Probably had 5-6 car lengths. I let off and he flew by a...

    GTS exhaust heat shield?

    Have 00 GTS with no cats. Ive seen on some of the Hennessey cars a stainless heat shield attached to rear bumper surrounding exhaust as it exits rear. It probably does very little but certainly looks pretty cool. Anyone know where to get these?

    Viper Sighting in Prince Frederick, Maryland

    Do any of you Mechanicsville guys have cars left after that tornado? Holy !@#$%. Can not believe the devastation. Talk about worried. Blew the windows out of my garage and put glass all over the snake. Luckily it was under cover and the garage roof held. Youd think we lived in Kansas or...

    I need serious advice regarding titling issue ->

    That is correct. If you pay the TX sales tax, which by the way I think is even higher than 6.5%.....maybe 7.25% or so when the county of origin takes their bite too.... then the guy on the CO will get a TX title in the mail in a few weeks. He can then sign it over to you as a private sale...

    I need serious advice regarding titling issue ->

    Artman cannot even pay the TX tax and hope to retitle in his home state getting some sort of credit for tax paid out of state. Reason is because dealer who originally sold car wrote buyers name at top back of CO. Dealer sold the car to that individual and car MUST be titled into that persons...
