    Inner Fender Well Removal - Driver's Dash Pad Removal

    Re: Inner Fender Well Removal - Driver\'s Dash Pad Removal You really should have the service manual for the car. It comes on CD and was less than $40, has been a life saver for how to... Maybe some of the techs here will chime in and let you know where to order. Sometimes a simple do this...

    Talking convertible, What can compete with the SRT/10?

    I am fortunate to have a 996tt cab. Don't have the X50 and it does have tiptronic. Two completely different cars. TT is car that does not require a drivers complete attention. Great cruiser, and very relaxing and can bring it on when it has to against 95% of the ricky racers that always seem...

    what is Black chrome?

    Black chrome is not consistent from shop to shop (plater to plater). I have seen the same shop turn out different shades, too. It will NOT look as rich and black as black powdercoat or black anodizing. I have some samples of chopper parts that look like a shiny, chrome, dark bluish, or dark...

    Fun with a Lambo (PICS)

    I hope you don't mind me asking a question here; should start a new post? I have a 2005 Viper w/Paxton and it's definitly a keeper, it's my hot rod and I will be drag racing it soon; additionally have a 2004 996TT cab w/Tip, probably will trade for 997 turbo cab if they make it, leased vehicle...

    Sirius antenna as big as my head?

    Terk makes a mini-antenna, I believe the p/n is sir-mini and also makes a y-connection to convert a two wire to single wire antenna. In order to fit the Y-connection to the Chrysler Sirius box, take out a small tab or two on the connector with a Dremel tool. I recall I only did it to one of...

    Question re: Convertible Top

    I noticed this morning due to the angle of sunlight through my garage window there were what looked like two very shallow wide (4") dents about 3" in back of windshield in the hard material that is under the black fabric of the top. The fabric is stretched flat instead of curved over these...

    SRT Coupe fuel cap does NOT fit the SRT Roadster

    OUCH! Thanks for the answer. Sounds like if I ever plan to do this, I might as well start with something like a GTS cap and good custom body shop.

    K&N intake - is it better than stock?

    Bob K, I have the dyno sheets from K&N's R&D department when they did a baseline before and after they installed kit and then ran on the dyno trying the hole drilling modifications everyone was discussing last year. I would be willing to discuss these with you. I dont want to create a...

    SRT Coupe fuel cap does NOT fit the SRT Roadster

    How much did you pay for it? Do you have the 2006 service manual that shows the differences? I'm still tempted to modify the body panel, powder coat the coupe cap black and have my body shop do what's necessary to make it work on my black 2005. If you do have the service manual, would you be...

    Paddle Shift

    If by options we are referring to factory options, IMHO that will only complicate the production of the Viper. Inventories of options, production line impact, dealers not knowing what is really available and on and on. All for what, 2500 per year. Options will only make the base vehicle...

    Paddle Shift

    It's the year 2010: Viper has all the performance, bells and whistles everyone has been whining about. 933 HP, V-10, Active AWD that can be switched off for tracking, Paddle shift - called a V-ring. Unbeatable on the track the last time one was raced (2 years ago, for some reason no one can...

    Paddle Shift

    I agree with the first part of this statement; the last part not at all. You might be suprised at the stables these guys here have. Regarding your Jags, if you hang with that crowd and you know anyone that is interested in a '60 XK150 3.8 S coupe let me know. I really want to off the oil...

    Paddle Shift

    Keep it raw, in your face and keep the "purists" happy and in the car. The reason I bought mine is that there's a ton of aftermarket performance and appearance stuff and just plain good engine building that can be done to the base car. I would never think of doing this to my other new...

    Jumper to Open Trunk in SRT

    My laypersons research also found that it is controlled by the BCM in the dash. I certainly don't have the technical ability to attempt to read the wiring schematics and figure it out. Neither do I have the connections with DC to go to the source. So I did what I hoped was the next best and...

    Jumper to Open Trunk in SRT

    You are absolutely correct, however, in my case there are times I am working on my car in the shop, it is unlocked (alarm unarmed) and I need to get into trunk. I have been through my manual and service manual CD a dozen times and have been unable to locate how to open the trunk without...

    Jumper to Open Trunk in SRT

    Last November there was a thread regarding how to open the trunk of an SRT without the key from under the hood. The solution was available by PM only. Could someone please PM this solution to me? Will save a lot of time if I am working in the shop and don't have my keys with me. Thanks

    Wheel tire pressure sensors - more

    I normally run on the street with HRE wheels with the sensors. I just got a set of CCW SP600 and BFG Drag Radials. My plan is to change to the CCW's for the strip and when I get back, remount the HRE's. Are there any issues I need to be aware of regarding the vehicle running at the strip...
