    WOOOOO HOOOOOO I GOT A VIPER!!!!!

    David Weaver aligned mine for $200 + (when he was still with Maxwell Dodge), and I thought that was a lot! There is a lot to do to set the viper up right. Unfortunately, if the car is lowered, a lot of that stuff they charge you for won't work (read the shop manual for more info). Maybe...

    I need some purchase assitance in Central Texas please!!

    I wonder if that was Wayne's old car (SA)? He bought that color to satisfy his wife, then sold it 6 mo later because of finances. There can't be that many central texas saphire RT/10s running around.

    What Supercharge you guys recommend

    David will treat you right. If you want to go turbo, I'd talk to RSI in Houston (expect 2X$$$), but 2X HP gain.

    New Coupe What $ to get 130MPH traps?

    GREG GOOD HEADS. Many people believe that the headwork alone (no cam) is worth 70hp or so. That should be just enough to get an extra 6-7 mph out of your car. Very stealthy, too. Installed for under $5000, I believe. Throw in a cam for another 30hp. Headers and exhaust will give you away...

    New! Fully Adjustable Proportional Valve Kit NonABS

    My understanding is that you only adjust bias AWAY from your rear brakes (if it is installed on the rear brake line as intended). Is this correct? You can't give your car more pressure than what it had from the factory, right? so how can this affect your insurance? The big brake kits can...

    Who would like to save up to $12,000?

    I'd like to see a Magnum SRT8 with the mango metalic paint like on the new charger R/T. Any luck?

    Brake bleed

    If you're replacing rotors, why not just pull the calipers off all at once. This way you won't have to worry about scuffing the rotor with a screwdriver or something. If you're replacing pads and rotors anyway, then go ahead and start prying. It can be done without damage to anything, if you...

    cone brake duct info

    I am upgrading my car for next season, and am comparing different brake ducting scenarios. I've seen the archer system, and it looks clean, but expensive. I've never seen the cone brake duct kit, but the price looks decent. Can anyone post pictures, or direct me to a post with pictures. JonB...

    Camshaft Question

    The overlap will effect how the car sounds. Competition Cams built their reputation 20 years ago on the 110 degree lobe centers, giving their cams a much more racy sound than their competition. 3-4 degrees can make a big dif in sound, and midrange torque, but at the sacrifice of idle quality...

    Is This For Real

    Just remove your temp sender, put it in the fridge for a while, and measure the resistance. That should do it, right?

    700 HP Gen IV Viper?

    The Nevada newsletter, hmmm. I was wondering who leaked the "big" news and got DCX so mad. That email just confirmed the rumors.

    Car Won't Start

    Re: Car Won\'t Start I just had a car no start problem, but it was the engine ground strap working itself loose.

    Has anyone installed 2003+ Intake on Gen II Motor

    gen III intake is more restrictive, designed to fit the lower hoodline. The gen III heads are a different story.

    Redline in transmission?

    I don't know, but after 100 miles with penzoil, my trans is still making noises. I never should have put redline in my car. I'll probably have to buy a new transmission.

    Went to the track today and made some good passes....

    I think the 100 shot will be enough.

    any austin or san antonio guys..............

    Cindy (from Canyon Lake) was inquiring to David about this about two years ago. I don't know if she ever had it put on or not. Cindy?

    Transmission fluid

    I put redline D4 in my trans, and after ViperDays drained it again. My trans started making all kinds of noises. The techs from Archer say it was the Redline. I put Penzoil back in, but the jury is still out on that one.

    345/35 18's?

    Re: 345/35 18\'s? Maybe you mean 345/30-18s not 35s. If so, then check out the pilot sport cup. Super sticky DOT race tire. Kindof pricey, but sometimes you can find good deals online.

    just bought viper car feels real darty

    My '95 was real darty, and David Weaver realigned it and now it rides better than my '97. You still won't want to drive with 2 fingers or a knee, but at least can I turn off the radio fairly safely while cruising at 70 (adjusting the settings is still tricky though)

    smashed hardtop to repair

    Anaconda, is it possible for you to post pictures of those soft-top latches. Unfortunately, noone in my club showed up with a gen II softtop for our cruise today. thanks

    19" VR1s and Eibach Lowered Gen II: Rub Problems

    Re: 19 Yeah, mine rubbed big time with 345 pilots. My red car is lowered 1 1/2" in the rear. They hit on lots of bumps, and I found rubber shavings in my fenderwell. Almost ruined a set of $800 tires. I put the wheels on my gen I, and they too stick out, but its not lowered so its fine for...

    suspension set up and changes.

    You can't get 50/50 front to rear. that's not possible. But you can try to get 50/50 R/L on the front tires. I think most people go for a balance diagonally or something.
