    ((((((((((Subwoofer installation))))))))))))

    Depends on how crazy you want to go. I kinda went to one extreme. There's another guy here with a gts that had 1 8" woofer mounted on the right side of the well and still retains nearly all of his space back there. I didn't do my install, was a bit over my knowledge and comfort zone, but I...

    back on the road today?

    With a little bit of luck I may have my gts back today! My tech got the new motor from Arrow yesterday and started the install. Hopefully they will have it back in and running today! Im keeping my fingers crossed. That leaves me 18 days to get the break in done before the Hot Springs Fall...

    Sad day in my viper pit

    Jon, I tried that number at the time of the problem. They said that normally they only tow to the nearest dealer, but as it was late Saturday evening and they were closed that I could get it taken home. But because I was so far away that was not an option. I was not about to leave it sitting...

    Sad day in my viper pit

    You never think it will/can happen to you...last weekend the motor in my 2000 gts went south My dad was with me (visiting from Texas) and we were about 80 miles from my home. Stopped to park the car and noticed a very rough idle and low oil pressure. Shut it down and looked under the hood and...

    Supra owner thinking of going for a viper

    www.douglevinmotorsports.com is his website. I believe his stage 1 package uses 6-8 psi for 600+ hp. If I had the money to spend on a SC that is who I would call. If you are going for an rt/10 and are interested in more "creature comforts" I would suggest going for a newer model with the...

    I NEED A NEW SHORTTHROW SHIFTER.....

    Another option is to have a look at www.mgwltd.com They make a great bunch of products with the short shifter being one of them. Just using that alone w/o the b&m works wonders. Price is $75, installs in 1 minute...smiles last longer.

    Just Curious

    I've been beaten by 2 supras. They are the group of guys that I hang with and race with on Saturday nights here locally. Very good guys with some awesome cars! Spent about $3k on mods and they are putting down about 400-440rwhp. One of them is in the process of upgrading to a big single...

    Question on stock radio for a 1998 GTS

    I have been very happy with the eclipse products in my car. I was actually able to listen to them in the store owners viper before I bought them which really helped. The speakers are 6.5" all the way around the car. Depending on what brand speaker you like it may be easier to fit a 5.25"...

    Question on stock radio for a 1998 GTS

    I know that on my 2000 there was not any preouts. There was a single lead, not rca, looked kinda like an s-video cable going from the head unit to the amp. Made it impossible to change the head unit without changing the amp or vice versa. I think that was something new, so on your 98 you...

    Wife blew my woofer! Replacement suggestions? (not wife)

    I agree, get it replaced under warranty. At least if you ever sell the car, you can put the stock speakers back in after you upgrade.....SOON Im dying about the premium alpine stuff! It's alpine made for chrysler...you will not find the alpine stuff in our cars at ANY car audio shop. Below...

    Base tube setup....?

    You wont be able to hear your bass tube from the trunk of an rt/10. The gas tank will block any sound from coming into the cabin. Try to find a spot in the passenger floorboard to mount it. Most tubes are only velcro'd straps holding them down so you can always take it out if you have a...

    First Service - First Impressions

    I went for my 3000 mile oil change a couple months ago. I took it back to the dealer where I purchased the car as they have a free oil change for every vehicle purchased. Small print however reads "up to 5 qt's" so im expecting to pay handsomely for the extra mobil 1 the car gets. Service guy...

    What a good inexpensive rear wheel/tire setup for occasional drag racing?

    What setup was used for the 16" and 17" drag radials? I have been researching this for a bit now. Seems the only DR's to fit our cars are sized 275/40/17 to fit a 10x17 viper front wheel mounted in the rear. The only bigger size is a 315/35/17 which I believe Tom Welch said did not fit the...
