    A/C kit still available anywhere for a 93?

    I added A/C to my 94 about 8 years ago when all parts were available. It was about 5K then, but well worth the money.

    My Solid Silver 98 GTS is now in the classifieds.

    Nice set of mods on a great looking car. The right buyer will come along at your price. It just takes a little time in this market. Craigslist can't hurt and it is free. I have seen more high end cars on Craigslist in my area recently.

    Those with 3.55 gears I have a question

    3.55's may not help at the drags if you have to shift into forth gear as opposed to finishing the quarter in third. About 120 MPH is all you are going to get out of third gear with a 3.07 before hitting the rev limiter. 3.55 may help or hurt at the drags based on your setup. A lightly modded...

    Vec 2 got wet anyone have an extra one for sale?

    I have always heard the best thing you can do when you drop a cell phone in water is to remove the battery and dry it out by covering it up in a bowl of uncooked rice. The rice draws out the moisture. I took my 96 to a wand wash a couple of weeks back and never thought about my Vec 3. Did...

    Tired of exhaust drone giving you headaches? This may fix it....

    When I went to buy a catback from Sean Roe I wanted a Corsa and he suggested the Borla and add a crossover pipe.He had added a crossover pipe to his own GTS. The crossover knocks out most of the cruising drone and cost $100 from a local muffler shop. I believe the Corsa was 6-7 hundred more than...

    Touch-up Paint?

    Anybody try the Dr.ColorChip Custom Automotive Touch-Up Paint Kit - Dr. ColorChip: Automotive Paint Chip Repair Systems touch up process? All of the small bottle brush paint I have bought from the dealer has been pretty thick and gets much more so with age.

    Contemplating selling my hard top & soft top

    As a Gen 1 RT/10 owner, the soft top and Mopar hardtop are both a PITA. The soft top looks like s#$t and having to remove the sport bar to put on the Mopar top maket the Mopar hardtop look like a complete afterthought. I have the Mopar hardtop and zipper windows taking up space in one of my...

    94 gray dash ?? what to do

    Got a price quote on new parts in black. A little over $1,300 now for the dash, glovebox, radio surround and two door handle surrounds. Still available but pretty pricey. Looks like it is gonna be painted at that price.

    My new to me 94 RT/10

    Side sills look like typical cat burn. High flos are the way to go to eliminate the problem and stay legal in states where they still do sniff tests.

    94 gray dash ?? what to do

    I really do like the flat black with the gloss black around the gauges and radio surround. The picture of the red dash in the previous thread do show how much a mismatch of the grey interior parts and dash (the glovebox door) really were. The fuzzy dash just seems to get darker with age...

    Those that did flat black - did you tape off the glossy gauge surrouds and radio surround, or just paint the entire thing flat black?

    94 gray dash ?? what to do

    I just stripped mine with Easy-Off oven cleaner this week and sanded with 320 and then 600 sandpaper. Took all parts into the shower for a final wash down and to do the fine crevaces with a soft toothbrush. I consiered painting it black (easiest fix) and also an imitation carbon fiber hydro...

    Has anyone had any problems with Hennessey Performance?

    Where are you located and what are you having done? I don't know that Vipers are even Henesseys thing anymore. He seems to a little into everything from Corvettes, to Camaros, to Cadillacs to building his own supercar based on a Lotus. He is also running a tuner school and I am sure part...

    Has anyone had any problems with Hennessey Performance?

    There plenty of Viper builders/tuners out there who do not have Henessey's baggage. Dependent on where you are located, Underground Racing (NC), Heffner (FL), ART (TX), Macedo Motorsports (FL), and DC Performance (CA) have pretty solid reputations in the Viper community. There may be others I...

    First time to the track howd i do???

    I did 12.2 and 116 in my 96 GTS first time out on street tires with tubes and filters only. Got that down to just a hair under 12.0 (11.997) and 120 with Hoosier drag radials and an added Borla cat back and HF cats third time out. Car is right on the rev limiter in third gear at 120. I went...

    Introduction and modlist

    I would move the MGW short knob up to #2. Inexpensive and makes a huge difference.

    **Transmission/ Driveline Clunk>**:confused:

    This is a common Viper complaint and is usually an indication that you don't have your foot on the accelerator hard enough. Part of it seems to come from driveline slap due to Viper gearing when you drive it like a granny and shift at low RPMS. Both of mine do it to some extent and it seems to...

    Financing a Viper Purchase

    Penfed will allow you to be a member if you are military, ex military, know someone in the military or ever thought about joining the military or ever saw someone in a military uniform. LOL The requirements to join are quite liberal and the rates for cars like Vipers cannot be beat.

    Gen 1 Dash Repaint In Grey?

    Has anyone stipped and redone their Gen 1 dash in grey to match the seats and left the gauge surrounds and radio surround black. I realize painting it all black is the most common and easiest way to go since you can paint the dash and the gauge and radio surrounds all the same color without...

    Letting an interested buyer drive your car

    I would not buy a car without driving it. I would not expect to sell a car without the buyer driving it. I would go with a qualified buyer to show them the basics and drive to a pretty safe place for them to get a feel for the car. The expectation needs to be set that the car be driven in...

    Need parts? Check your Dodge dealer too!

    Another source for Dodge OEM parts at good prices. I was not aware they stocked Viper parts until an A/C shop working on my car used them as a source for an A/C condenser this week. Dodge Viper Parts - DodgeTruckParts.net I normally check with Tator or Partsrack first as they are strong...
