    Most ANNOYING Viper moment?

    I get tons of homeless guys and general bums sit and WAIT for me (sometimes for an hour while I'm eating at a restaurant) so they can ask for money. They usually ask one or two questions about the car first to act like that was the real reason they waited. Sometimes they tell me about the...

    Converted the gray interior from my 94 to black and painted dash!

    My 94 has a painted black dash and the interior is dyed mostly yellow/black. It's definetely an eye catcher, painted dash doesn't bother me with any glare.

    Could you add a Gen II exterior door handle to a Gen I?

    Nice idea, but not sure if it's possible without major modification. The GEN II door handles are electric push button I believe.

    It could be lifter noise, that's pretty common I believe.

    Newbie: a not so typical "mustang" owner...

    Re: Newbie: a not so typical Yeah, the color is awesome... Looks like a Porter Cable got a hold of it before they put it on TV :) By the way, how did you get in contact with the show? My bud has an old 55 bel air that's a real street rod, he's got lots of projects for it on the way. Maybe...

    Re: Newbie: a not so typical The light switch in my Viper is a Ford part, at least you wouldn't be leaving the Ford family entirely... I love my Viper, but I won't be driving her this weekend. My light switch melted internally and I gotta have it replaced under warranty. Apparently it was a...

    Taking Viper to dealership tomorrow for work...

    My 94 RT/10 still has the DC extended warranty until 2007 :headbang: The main problem I am taking the car to the dealer for is my light switch overheated and melted, but I've got a list of other little annoyances I wanted to see if they'd take a look at. Should most of these be covered...

    Favorite Mod?

    Ok, what is your favorite/most worthwhile mod, the single one thing you would immediately do to your Viper if you started over again (Performance upgrade, HID conversion, learning to use a Porter Cable, custom floor mats, etc)? Mine would be my HRE 540's with the centers anodized black.

    Broken Headlight switch....need help

    My light switch (Gen I) was giving similar problems. All lights would work but at times driving at night the headlights would flicker on and off. I bought the replacement headlight switch (ford part) and started to replace the switch (there's no pinhole on mine, there's a button on top of the...

    Porter cable question.

    It should be doing a wax-on wax-off miogi style movement, like if you were waxing with both hands 6000 times a minute. If it is vibrating too hard (or jiggly), you need to buy the correct counterweight for whichever size pad you are using (5" weight for 5" pad, 6" weight for 6" pad in most cases).

    If YOU were buying a Viper...

    Go with the mods... A viper is a viper regardless of what wheels you have on stock or cool lookin (unless you have spinners, then go out to a field and shoot yourself in the head). You can always buy wheels and get those install cheaper than the mods. Not much research on that, you already...

    Help! Massive coolant leak

    If it's not the screw in the front fascia poking a hole in the bottle then it's one of two things: a leak, or a bad coolant cap. I bought one of those diode coolant caps for my Gen I, and it was letting air into the system. End result, coolant was spewing out of the bottle in the fascia after...

    Effectiveness of Underdrive Pulleys

    I don't have that set but I do have underdrive pulleys installed. Mine are really lightweight so less turning mass is always better but definetely shouldnt be invested in if you are looking for noticeable gains. But I have no problems with undercharging or overheating (I have excellent cooling...

    1969 Camaro RS (the ones with the flip out headlights). Dropped a 427 into it, 4.11's in the rear, 3 speed, huge tires tucked under the back. I lived in a small town and anywhere I needed to go wasn't far.
