    New '96 GTS owner in Phoenix area

    My "some day" came when watching the 96 Indy 500. I bought a 94 RT/10 eight years ago, but always wanted a 96 GTS. I finally got it last summer. Now I have the best of both worlds, the RT/10 for top down driving and the 96 GTS. Mine is 20012 built 5/20/96, just before the GTS debut at the...

    Need advice : frame at door hinge leaks water

    All RT/10's seem to leak around the rubber seal on the door by the mirror. The rubber does not meet the body both in front of and behind the windshield frame. This normally results in water running down the door and dripping off your door speakers. I just bought some 2" X 2" gray foam at...

    Attention 1996 Viper GTS Owners!

    I did not know that. I thought all 96 GTS VIN were the same with the exception of the last 4. Let me restate "time consuming" to "a lifetime project".

    Attention 1996 Viper GTS Owners!

    You got mine. 20012 and 052013. I had though one time about getting an unlimited carfax account for a month and pulling all the 96 GTS VIN's to see in what state they are titled, most recent mileage reported and number shown as salvage titles. Would be interesting data, but pretty time...

    Paint on a Viper

    This sounds like an old thread on here where a guy advertised a 97 GTS as one of the original B/W cars and said it had had a first class repaint done on it but forgot to mention the repaint had changed it to red. The guy flew to look at the car and was really PO'd. It kind of looks like the...

    '96 B/W GTS Carfax/ Autocheck History

    I wish one of the 96 GTS historians knew something about my 96 GTS 0012. Jon B and Maurice Liang are both coming up blank. It is like this car never existed. I am beginning to wonder if it is like one of those fake BMW's made in China.

    '96 B/W GTS Carfax/ Autocheck History

    Someone on Viperalley bought a 96 GTS that had been originally built for export to Canada and the speedo was in Kilo's. It found it's way back to the US and in the Kilo to Miles conversion the carfax was all messed up. That one is very understandable and easy to explain. The more recent one...

    Somebody Has To Know Something About This Car

    I own GTS #12 and obtained the original Michigan title number from Carfax. I went to the State of Michigan and they told me they did not have records that far back and even if they did, they would be protected under the privacy act. This is the same with maintenance records from Dodge. They will...

    96 GTS Interior Door Latch, Missing or Normal?

    They are plastic pop in pieces that are easily broken. Replacements also aren't cheap. I wanna say $70 each or so. Contact Chuck Tator's Dodge.

    Best shift points on 1/4 mile drag

    Ran 11.997 @ 120.66 at Gainesville Raceway a few weeks back in my 96 GTS. Stayed in third and hit the rev limiter right at the end. My car has the stock 3.07 rear end and seems to hit the rev limiter somewhere between 117 and 118. I was surprised to get over 120 in third.

    Shift speeds?

    When drag racing my 96 GTS it is a choice of shifting into 4th or leaving it in 3rd and hitting the rev limiter at the end of the quarter mile. Last time out my trap speed was 120.66 in 3rd and I did hit the rev limiter briefly. I think the shift points you referenced are pretty much...

    335/30-20 Michelin PS2 and LOWERED?

    When you hit a bump, does the car bounce up and down for the next two miles like a mid 70's Caddy? That could mean you need shocks. Boing! Boing!

    Underbody Neon Lighting

    Anyone know where you can buy the things that squirt lighter fluid and spark ignite it behind the rear wheels when you take off. I have seen that on 50's cars and Back To The Future, but never a Viper. That beats neon 100%. I am thinking JC Whitney???? I wonder if they would mind that at the...

    Viper GTS Loan

    Talk to Bernie at BJ Motors. He sells a ton of old Vipers and I am sure not all of his buyers pay cash. He posts current loan criteria occasionally.

    Code Reader Question

    When using a code reader that indicates a problem with engine bank 1 or engine bank 2, is the driver side bank 1 or bank 2 on a Viper. I believe this is determined by the location of the #1 cylinder. Is bank 1 and the location of the #1 cylinder the same side on all V engine cars, or can this...

    Drag Racing Gainesville Raceway 3/25/09

    I posted over on Florida Vipers site too! I know Mike is up for it, but we need him to bring the Viper and leave that 10 second Corvette at home. Adam needs to put those Hoosiers to the test on a race track for once. Sean needs to tell his girlfriend he deserves a night out with the boys...

    Drag Racing Gainesville Raceway 3/25/09

    Anyone up for some cool weather, under the lights, nighttime 1/4 mile drag racing Wednesday, March 25th at Gainesville Raceway? This is about 10 days after the Gatornationals, so the track will most likely be brought 100% up to snuff for that. $25 to race. Track opens at 6:30 PM. Racing...

    '97 GTS Question

    I would say closer to 40-42K in the current market if it drives out well, has a clean carfax and no history of body or paint work. The market is pretty soft. I bought a 96 B/W GTS with 17,000 miles last July for $36,000. Had to paint the front fascia, replace a driver seat bolster, replace...
