    Does anyone with a GTS which they went with an RT-10?

    I have both. Bought the 96 B/W GTS with intent to sell the 94 Red RT/10, but two years later, have not done so. They are like two totally different cars to me. RT/10 seems a much smaller car when driving it. Love the top off driving, but wish I had the three piece HT that would fit in the...

    trunk liner / mats 2001 Rt/10

    The ones the Northern California VCA sells are top grade quality and come in either logo and just about any color logo. I have been very happy with the ones I ordered.

    Question on best 17'' drag radial

    I ran the 17" Hoosiers and liked them, but with the 3.07 rear, I could not get above 120 without hitting the rev limiter in 3rd gear. They are not all that tall. I switched to 18" wheels to go to the taller MT ET Streets and pick up about 7 MPH in 3rd. They are 28.49 inches tall and barely clear...

    spun it

    Are you telling us the Corvette guys took the same curve at the same speed without incident and they were saved by traction control? I know most on this site state they don't need "nanny controls", but an awful lot of Viper owners have experienced the same event you recounted. In the 40 degree...

    Polished or Chromed?

    The simple rule of thumb is: Chrome if you live in the hood. Polished if you do not.

    Winter Works Part 3: Scrape Saver

    I thought these were going on the underside of the fascia. Hasn't the bottom side of the fascia already been scraped by the time the obstruction gets far enough back to hit these blocks. It looks like the fascia is gonna hit what the fascia is gonna hit first.

    Damn....Got bit!

    Very nice looking car. Best color combination ever. I know most folks replace the stock wheels, but I think the stock wheels on the 97 look great.

    2 1/2" in\out for ROE hi-flo cats?

    You mean the exhaust sound is kind of muffled? Hmmmm. I wonder if that is why they call it a muffler? LOL Is a silencer is what makes a gun shoot silently or is it something else?

    35K.... What will it get me

    If you have to sell the Stealth and another car to come up with the 35K in this market, you may want to count on having less than 35K to spend. It is a buyer's market for those with cash to spend. If you have to sell to buy, not so much.

    Whats a 1994 RT 10 Red 8,000 miles worth....

    It had better have A/C if you live in Tampa. Check accident history. It is rare to see a "non-storied" Gen 1 for 22K.

    Viper Tech in Jacksonville FL area

    I have had good luck with the viper tech at Orange Park Dodge - Bob Bickle. He came over to Orange Park Dodge from Caruso when that dealership closed. Last time I had the car at Jacksonville Dodge off 9-A they had the car for a month, did not fix it and had it for another month when I took it...

    iPhone pics of my B/W

    Best looking body style and colr combo ever. I agree, the wheels have to go. They look pretty old school.

    OEM Sneaky Pete Hood Pad

    These things cost more to ship than they do to buy since they have to go freight. Best to buy a new one and have it delivered to your local dealer for pick up. Used ones usually don't look so hot as these things are really fragile and normally do not look so hot after being taken off and...

    1996 GTS

    If the hood can be fixed/touched up to your satisfaction that is one thing and if you think it will need fixed/totally repainted that is another. It is hard to paint just from the white stripe over on one side of the hood and painting the entire hood and stripes can get expensive, particularly...

    1996 GTS

    Price is right if the car looks and checks out otherwise. Crack in paint or crack in hood? Need to be more specific about that or post a pic. That does not sound normal.

    96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue

    LOL They could be removing or adding weights when the car sits in my driveway! I like a good conspiracy theory.

    96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue

    The shop I used has a road force balancer that puts 1200 pounds of road force on the tire. I think it is a Hunter, but not sure of the model number. They are not listed as having a 9700, but another one of their locations about 7 miles further down the road has one. I will give that a shot if I...

    bubble on the sill???

    No side exhaust. The factory cats did get hot enough one time that I had to repaint both side sills. Replaced with ROE high flow cats.

    96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue

    Not sure how to do this. Chuck Tator said to try swapping the rotor and I am working on that. I asked him if he thought it could be the hub and he said he doubted it. Shock shows no sign of any leakage.

    96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue

    I had a slight vibration in the left front with the factory wheels, but not as bad as when I put these on. Car just rolled over 21,000 miles today.
