    GTECH--anyone use one on the viper?0-60

    I checked HP and it registered 414 RWHP. That is 220 more HP than a 300 net HP Corvette and 140 HP more than the best 350 net HP vete I have tested. It is also 90 HP more than my highly modified '69 355CID Corvette.

    Generational Criticism

    I have never let the criticism bother me. I like the Third Generation best, others like different generations as is their perogative. The only thing I have ever wondered about is why there are so many older generation Viper owners active on this SRT-10 forum. I don't mind, it just has always...

    Any SRT Radio Problems

    My radio cut out occasionally loosing the clock setting. They said it had a loose diode. I had it fixed just as it snowed, so I don't know if it really is fixed or not. I am hopeful it is. This was the only problem I've had in the first 6400 miles (driven in 6 months).

    WHERE TO BUY THE VIPER????????

    A new 05 on eBay failed to sell with a $70,001 reserve. I'd still try to have your local dealer get one at close (maybe within $2500) to the current best ebay price.

    Just got my 2006 blue SRT-10 convertible. Few questions . . .

    I think the extended warranty is a good idea, however the dealer's prices look high. When I was buying my '04 I also considered an '05 and to get 7/70 bumper to bumper coverage was just under $2000 and that was for a Dodge warranty.

    Are these lifts made in the USA? I'm concerned with the quality of the steel in an imported lift.

    06 FE Blue /white coupe on eBay for 87,500 buy it now ....But one problem

    Re: 06 FE Blue /white coupe on eBay for 87,500 buy it now ....But one prob It is just stupid for the dealer to put on the factory bracket. I am required to run a front plate but built a bracket that clamps to the full width polymer bumper support. I didn't think suction cups would hold up...

    Blown Engine Diagnosis

    I'm glad he is getting the engine covered by warranty. However, ANYTHING that increased the engine's power or torque output can legitimately void the warranty. The warranty is based on the engine at its designed and delivered power. Adding even 5% power beyond what was delivered could, while...

    New '04 has loose crank bolt- tow or drive????

    Re: New \'04 has loose crank bolt- tow or drive???? ART 138 was ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, 1st gear is the best to use to keep the car secure. Simply put, if in 1st the engine must turn more than twice as many revolutions for each inch the car travels compared to it being in 4th. I would remove the...

    Hardwired Valentine 1 into Rear View Mirror (Pics)

    I have a VRCD jammer (Vehicle Radar Cloaking Device). Car and Driver tested these and said they worked. It was $545 about 10 years ago. It jams X and K bands only. Testing on K by the drive by radar warning systems used to slow down traffic, it lets me go by undectected about 80% of the time...

    Viper purchase satisfaction

    I bought my '04 Viper on 07Jun05. It has 6850 miles. I just dropped it off for its first warranty work for the following: The radio looses power and resets to 12:00 and 0 volumne. The driver's door hinge has been stiff and squeaky since new. The rear speakers are nearly inaudible (This could...

    Factory Radio-Speakers

    Thanks for answering my question. Does everyone out there agree? The rear speakers (two small ones near the headrest loops and the single bass one in the middle) volume level is about 1/5 that of the fronts.

    Factory Radio-Speakers

    The rear speakers in my '04 SRT-10 are barely audible. Are they supposed to be like a regular car where the rears should sound as loud as the fronts? I am bringing the car in for its first warranty service and want the radio to be right. Since getting the car in June (6350 miles!), with the...

    04 srt10 question-7 yr 70,000 question

    The extended coverage for a Viper with a factory 7/70 warranty costs almost as much as for the coverage for both 7/70 and extended coverage on a 3/36 covered viper only. It is not a good deal.

    why'd you buy your snake??

    Re: why\'d you buy your snake?? I didn't include the value element in my reason but I agree with you as well. Buying new my '04 was less money than a '06 Z06 if you figure the value GM puts on the STEEL framed convertible, let alone the the non existant Z06 convertible.

    why'd you buy your snake??

    Re: why\'d you buy your snake?? I bought mine for several reasons: The SRT-10 is most thrilling low maintainence convertible in the world (I did not want to have to pay for frequent big buck tune ups) I love the performance: Acceleration, Braking, Cornering 3/36 Bumper to Bumper and 7/70...

    What have I done!

    Enjoy your Viper as often as time and weather allows! In Las Vegas that should be nearly every day. I've driven mine 5900 miles in the last 4 months and will continue to enjoy it until the salt and snow hits the roads!! I drive it daily and find myself taking the long way to work most days...

    One Year on the Supercharger

    It is hard for me to imagine not driving the wheels off of the car ONLY because the Viper is so much fun, dependable, and such a pleasure to drive.

    One Year on the Supercharger

    I am curious as to how you can limit yourself to so few miles in a year. I'm in IA and since June I have driven over 5700 miles and will be putting the car away when the snow and salt hit the roads. I can't imagine how you could drive your car so few miles.
