    Tested: 2013 SRT Viper vs 2008 ACR Viper

    Your comments apply to any Gen 4, not just ACR. Obviously Gen 5 is improved and it shows in acceleration and drivability, just like it did between past generations. If there was no improvement, what would be the point to buy this car? Thanks anyway Captain Obvious. And here is a thought, do...

    Tested: 2013 SRT Viper vs 2008 ACR Viper

    ACR is purpose built car. Put them both on the ring to find out how they compare. This comment is actually right on the money, considering how much down force and extra drag ACR generates, pretty obvious from the drag strip videos I see, with best times achieved by those who take the rear wing...

    Saw this Gen 5 Viper Dodge dealer ad today...

    So how are you intending to make a car better if anything that is posted is a praise instead of personal opinions identifying issues that when addressed would help sell more Vipers? Gen 4 have been sitting at the dealers for many years, before Gen 5 showed up. There is a lot of hostility but...

    Hit a snag with front speakers

    What a bummer. I hit a bigger snag, one that will require some serious work. I wired up everything and installed it on the driver side, it really sounded so much better than the stock. Then I proceeded to the passenger side and there is no way to fit anything beyond super tiny tweeters. So...

    Door panel removal

    Got it and thank you very much. What is the cleanest way to get the clips out? My clip removal tool does not fit and it seem the potential to mess up the door panel seems pretty high.

    Door panel removal

    I've been reading through the threads addressing this issue and just wanted to make sure about a couple of things. In the front part of the panel, there is something that looks like a clip? I assume this has to be taken out, right? There is a screw behind the door pull cover and there is a...

    Hit a snag with front speakers

    K... So I got my donor... I think one side should be enough for the Viper, LOL. If I ever feel like doing anything to the Vette, the other side is there to cover that project. And after extraction. Morel MT23 6 Ohm which are kinda pricey but sound like nothing else out there. The little...

    check engine light

    If it is like Gen 4, you will have to drive the car a bit to go through the readiness cycles. May be a good idea to spray some contact cleaner to lubricate the switch.

    Best low break dust pads/rotors?

    I put stoptech on my vette, they squeal and I recall I was assured they would not.

    Best low break dust pads/rotors?

    My ceramics on Corvette squeal. Ceramic pads still have dust, it Is just light color so you do not see it. Once you break them in, the stopping power is good. Rotors have nothing to do with dust reduction, save your money.

    Hit a snag with front speakers

    Well ok, my capacitors showed up, I guess I'll give the tweeters a shot tomorrow. I am really getting p'oed with the fleabay crook stalling me with the grills. Tomorrow, I can do the tweeters and escalate my dispute with this jerk, should be a good day, LOL. According to my calcs, one...

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    Gheez, a vette plug, maybe a Mini plug instead? :rolleyes: I think I bought a Viper to troll on a Viper forum.:crazy2: I shared my thoughts about certain things that bug me. Apparently this is not a good thing and we should just continue to stroke each other instead. If you do not like...

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    Yup, I am off by an inch. I do not dispute that these things are a matter of personal priorities. For me, they matter especially when shopping for cars but of course, this is strictly my POV.

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    Why is it exactly silly? This is about making Viper a more modern and ultimately better car. No doubt this is a matter of opinion but I can name quite a few that seem way more silly to me.:rolleyes:

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    I think you shortened the viper by an inch and this may get you in trouble with some folks. I think those ratios match Corvette C6 way better than Viper and thus follow my thinking (I provided some numbers in previous posts as well).

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    They are easy to dent too, considering they are aluminum, burning myself does not scare me, messing up my car does and big time. Flesh heals, metal does not.:D

    Headlights gen 3 vs gen 4

    You do not have to use many of them, LED bulbs come these days in 30, 50 and 100 watt variety... :2tu:

    I hope these numbers were for a non modified car although even then, they seem low.

    Headlights gen 3 vs gen 4

    I hope you do realize how obsolete HID lights are these days, with LED lighting taking over:D

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    I like them too, I think they are pretty cool (figuratively speaking only), although I noticed they do get in a way a bit when working on the interior, including speakers:D

    Viper wheel base-why is it still so short?

    You would be ok with 640 hp in Corvette though, I hope? Again, this is not about the length of a car but OVERHANG.
