    New Tires

    Crazy traction, crazy, as in first gear full throttle stomp from a roll and not even a hint of wheelspin, nothing. It's insane. Completely different car, I can toss my car into a corner stuffed pretty good before oversteer takes over into a powerslide, it's near impossible. Downside #1, many...

    ACR is not as efficient with its cooling system. Need Advise

    my 97 GTS was right on the verge of boilover myself. mine was helped quite a bit by kicking up the water % to a 75/25 from 60/40 in the summer only, water is a much better conductor of heat that antifreeze. 2 bottles of water wetter by Redline every year as well at the same time and there is a...

    Need 2 Side Sill Cover Screws

    Joe consider popping in Moroso Rim Screws they use to tie in slicks to the rims on drag cars, they work perfect.Had them in stock at a local race shop. Anodized and all, stop the corrosion factor, I've used them all year with several on/off cycles without a problem. The OEM are a joke in my...

    Rough shifting when cold

    Funny moving to Syntorq on a new tranny I noticed warming up shifts much worse than on OEM tranny fill of 97, mineral based crud. It's normal, go easy, give her a mintue to warm up, and skip some gears until up to temps. Quick way to get my butt whipped by a 15 second Neon if you catch me close...

    Thinking about a used GTS. Any tips on what to look for?

    Hey MSL, what the heck is up?? I'll shoot you an email, come on over to the garage any time to check out my GTS and shoot the breeze over what to look for. See your car floating around the Lauzon Road and Little River area, is that your neck of the woods? Own an apartment building in the area...

    My dreams of owning a Viper... Crushed today with a 20 min test-drive!

    This thread is hilarious. I like Vettes, after a few buddies picked up some this year I am thinking of picking one up to run up the driveway to get the mail. Lots of storage and ample room for your fav. beverage in the cup holder. Nice stuff.........

    Changing brake fluid w/ a turkey baster????

    I was hesitant to get in and do it right myself from fear of the unknown. Take an afternoon and a few drinks and hit it slowly. After one time it now takes as much time to put the car in the air and rims off as to bleed all four corners. Fronts a little more tricky with a three step in out in...

    Hello everyone! Just another new Viper guy!

    Shoot to Vegas and rent one at rent-a-vette. Avoid dreamcarrentals all the cars are baffed. Have a weekend of fun, total bill of a thousand bucks, well worth it if you find the car not what you thought. They are not comfy, do heat up like crazy and in my case if I crank the air I am on the...

    Skip Shift Explanation, Please

    Hey Bigs, I thought it was unrelated to emissions and concerned with EPA MPG averages. By bringing up the Vipers mileage during the EPA loop by forcing the first to fourth shift under the precise conditions the EPA test dicticts, the Vipers mileage shot up. This then brought up the CAFE...

    Grocery shopping in the GTS, hmmmmmm.....

    Juiced up my cooling system for the winter and thought I'd go out for a cruise to get it cycled thru the system to avoid any freeze up issues over the hibernation period. (I run 25% glycol in the summer, works great). End up meeting up with this girl I know who needed to pick up some stuff from...

    New to Norcal bringing 4 vipers

    do tell your story on getting out of this blasted country, plotting my plan to leave the home of 40 dollar cases of beer and giving half of my 9-5 earnings to those that do not wish to work. Chuck may only have 2 Vipers but he has jackstands that would support 5, beats us all!

    Need a new battery... recommendations?

    Just popped in a group 75 Diehard Gold last month and works perfect. 60 US or so. Too many Optima issues for me to attempt, duds off the shelf, hacking posts, etc.

    Low fuel light?

    Worse than just heating up when running out of gas the pump will run warmer than usual right before running out as available gas drops under the top of the pump to the bottom, not good.
