    Random Tech Cat falling apart

    Sorry. I edited the title. So which of the random tech cats should I order if I'm pushing low 600 HP? And how many miles can you expect. I'm thinking 75000 now :)

    Random Tech Cat falling apart

    I have 92000 miles on my car. I think I had about 1000 when I installed the cats. I'll take pictures when I remove them. I don't remember any misfires. I have Belanger headers, Corsa cat back, stryker heads, rockers, smooth tubes, 708 cam, cragin tune. I just didn't know if there was a...

    Random Tech Cat falling apart

    Random Tech Cats fail at 92000 miles Has anyone else here had their Random Tech Hi Flow cats fall apart? Both of mine have loose parts in them now. Before I put the same ones back in again, I thought I see if there was a better solution. Maybe I just shouldn't drive my car so much.

    Painted side emblems

    I have had my side and rear emblems painted on both of the vipers I have owned. I used a chrome allusion type of paint (gold/silver).

    Potential New Viper owner.

    I've had a GEN 1 & GEN 2 with ABS. The GEN 2 is by far a better car, but you can't go wrong with either.

    Poll: Daily Driver yes or no...

    I think more RTs are daily drivers because we are just cooler people in general :) I think if you did a survey of cars that were put on the track, then the answer would swing towards the GTS.

    What should I offer to buy this for?

    I have my 01 RT/10 in the classifieds. It is a straight, well maintained car with all of the bolt ons. I'm willing to negotiate the price. The miles are pretty high because it has been my daily driver for close to 8 years. Most of the work was done on the car about 25K miles ago, so the...

    Best Way to Lower 2000 RT/10?

    I have the eibachs on my 01 RT. I love the look and handling, but I do a lot of scraping around town. It is my daily driver. When you lower it with these, even tire wear makes a difference with which bumps you scrape.

    Berated for owning a Viper

    After 10 years of daily driving, I've heard about everything. I stopped explaining a long time ago that I bought it with the money my father left me. Everyone calls me SEASNAKE at work now. I'm kind of an urban legend. I dropped my kids off whenever I could (can) and they have never had any...

    Lowered car

    If you're driving around town, be prepared to scrape everywhere if you put the eibachs on. With the stock springs I could navigated almost all speed bumps, with the eibachs you had better get used to the tranny pan bolts rubbing! The car looks and handles soo much better though. I have never...

    Anybody do a mail order tune for Gen I?

    I sent my PCM to Cragin after putting on stryker heads. They can do a lot more than just 10 HP. Skip shift elimination, much smoother power (for me), better temp control (with a thermostat change), etc. I didn't gain much peak power with the new program, but the car drives much better and...

    High mileage

    About 78K on my RT? I don't know why more people don't drive their vipers, unless you lived where there is a lot of snow.

    Another reason to prefer a RT/10 over a GTS

    Yes, the trunk is nice. I use that in the winter to store the wet suit. But I wouldn't do it through snow. Now that was a hard core surfer!

    Happy with gen 2?

    I loved my Gen 1 (94) when I had it. After it was totalled, I bought my '01 and I would never give up the Gen 2 for a Gen 1. Its that much of a difference all around. If I could afford both, then I would gladly have a Gen 1.

    Another reason to prefer a RT/10 over a GTS

    When I was younger that's what I thought too. Most of my friends switched to long boards years ago, because you can ride one 95% of the time here. This is a very nice epoxy long board that is fast, extremely light & incredibly fun.

    Another reason to prefer a RT/10 over a GTS

    You can't get a long board in a GTS! Time to surf some Tropical Storm Hanna swells.

    I think Tom Sessions has a set of used 1.7 rockers that are available.

    My lucky day

    Thanks for the good wishes. I'm doing pretty well with the treatments, but still have a long way to go (29 more weeks). Most of the time I feel lucky its colon cancer and I have a pretty good prognosis. One thing is for sure, I don't take feeling good for granted! I was really counting...

    My lucky day

    This morning it was wet and foggy. I was driving to work and taking it pretty easy, when I lost control of the car coming down an offramp. I caught the first slide, but the didn't catch the return and the car spun 180 and backed over the inside curb and the rest of the car followed. The car...

    HUGE CRACK in my HOOD!!! WTF??

    What year is your car? 94's and early 95's were notorious for hood cracks due to the excessive amounts of filler used by the factory to smooth out poor quality hoods. I bought a 94 that was perfect with 3K miles on it. By the time I drove it home (1K miles), it had three cracks and after the...

    Am I the only guy who likes his stock exhaust stock?

    A Viper is like a Harley. It just doesn't sound right with the stock exhaust.

    Optima Batteries can kiss my.......

    I've had two Optima batteries. One that lasted 4 years and went with the totalled '94 and the other for 6+ years in my '01. I've never had any problems, but each of the cars was a daily driver. Maybe that's the difference. BTW, I have seen where a MOPAR battery puked all over the rear of the...

    So where are all the original people from this site?

    I was nitrous dave in the 90's and have been seasnake since I pulled the nitrous off. I browse for things that interest me on the site, but seldom post anymore.
