    TKO Throttle Response Kit

    Not sure if the gen 5 is the same as the gen 4, but I remember seeing something Dan Lesser posted about the throttle control driver circuit on the PCM being part of the problem. I believe it effectively boiled down to something like "the circuit isn't powerful enough to move the blade that...

    Anyone keeping up with Casey's 97 GTS Race build youtube channel.

    Seen some of the thumbnails, but haven't really dug into the build yet. Hopefully a nice reference for others out there interested in building up a gen 2 for track service.

    Gen 3 REVERSE LOCKOUT HELP!!!!

    Glad to hear you got it fixed, though ***** it took a whole PCM to get there. Kind of feels like using a cannon to **** a fly. You might hold on to the old one either way. Someone might be able to repair it. Wonder if some code got corrupted or if the driver for the circuit just gave out.

    Hood wires

    They are radio shielding wires. The entire hood pad has a layer of aluminum foil in it that is used to suppress electronic noise from the engine bay that those wires connect to. One of mine is starting to go as well but hasn't fully broken yet. Been thinking about how I want to fix it one of...

    Gen 3 & 4 Double DIN Head Unit DIY

    So completely unrelated, but I think some of your pictures finally solved an age old mystery I've had with my car and some parts that I know came out of it, but I can never remember where they came from. Looks like there are 4 plastic clips on that magnesium structure that help support the...

    Slow cooling fan

    Gen 3 fan was hydraulic as well, so there are a couple places to look. Since you replaced the fan already though that potentially eliminates the valves in that module as a problem. I had an issue where the relief valve in my fan stuck open, which made me lose power steering. Since the fluid...

    Website Analysis

    Technically I don't think it ever went anywhere, it was just links to different threads that sometimes would break. Nothing you couldn't find with a search fairly easily, but the section did make it a little easier as you could think of it as "common search terms" in one list.

    Gen 3 Passenger Side Window Regulator

    How bad can they be and still be rebuilt? I put a new one in my driver's side a few years ago, but I think I hung on to the old unit for parts. Wasn't sure if they could be too far gone to be rebuilt or not. My passenger one is hanging on, but I have a feeling it might not be too far behind...

    Daytime Running Light Activation-Gen 1

    I know in the gen 3+ that it is a setting in the BCM that you change, but I'm thinking the gen 1 would have been a little early for that and more likely "hardware" implemented as you've seen with harnesses and such. I've hooked my DRB III up to my mom's 94 once before to diagnose a spark issue...

    Couple pics while waiting on heads/cam

    Spicy! I always liked the idea of heads and cam over forced induction as it usually provides a more broad powerband. That's going to be one fun ride!

    Anyone have a TechAuthority subscription?

    For reference, here is the configuration report he pulled off of the car the other day. Was hoping it was possible to get a similar table to this with the original values it would have had when it left the factory.

    Just cleaned.

    I think I remember seeing a YouTube video where a guy compared a bunch of different ceramic sprays and the Turtle Wax actually did really well if I remember correctly.

    Anyone have a TechAuthority subscription?

    So this isn't Viper related, but my dad has a 2015 Challenger and has been having trouble with getting the puddle lights working in the doors for years now. I recently acquired AlfaOBD as a means to reset configuration values on his controllers to see if they somehow got disabled, but the more...

    Recommended oil for heads/cam

    One thing to keep in mind as well is that high zinc oils were typically more needed with old flat tappet cams as that was a high wear point, especially with aggressive valve spring pressures. Modern roller lifters largely get around this issue by actually having bearings, though the rocker arms...

    Recommended oil for heads/cam

    Stock oil should work just fine in the long run I would think. There really shouldn't be any major differences on a heads/cam car that would need something else I can think of. Maybe higher valve spring pressures could put more strain on the cam if you have them, but otherwise I don't think...

    Gen 5 intake manifold on Gen 4 Questions?

    The forums here are actually independently run, so there's no real benefit to us locking content behind memberships. The filtering is a different matter and something that could probably get updated to some degree. Most of it is just general "family friendly" censoring as far as I'm aware, but...

    Gen 3 REVERSE LOCKOUT HELP!!!!

    I had this one happen to me, but in a much more obvious way. My speedometer was going crazy at a standstill and swinging the needle all over the place. Wouldn't let the car go into reverse because it thought it was moving. Fairly sure this isn't your problem as it would be more obvious, but...

    Gen 5 intake manifold on Gen 4 Questions?

    Can you use one of those link shortening websites by any chance? I'm frequently surprised by what words get censored on here sometimes. I'd rather still share knowledge and let people decide for themselves what they want to do.

    Just cleaned.

    I've always thought about getting my car professionally detailed one of these days. I do what I can to spruce it up from time to time, but I know my paint could use some more love than just the typical wash and occasional wax I give it. Would be interesting to see how different it might look...

    should I go for '93 gen 1

    Ah, okay. I see what you're getting at. Overall pretty much all Vipers were very well built and have lasted a long time without much for major issues. That being said, the ones I hear about the most on the early cars are the paper head gaskets weeping over time and the power steering pulley...

    should I go for '93 gen 1

    The gen 1 market is strange to me. I would have expected it to have gone up more than it has considering it was the "original" Viper. The gen 2 market seems to have outpaced it more though. The coupe tends to be more popular and the racing heritage that started with it certainly helps that...

    Gen 3 vs 4 blocks and cranks

    The 04 crank doesn't have the tone notches machined in. Not sure if they could be added or not, but even if it could I'm not sure how practical that might be.

    WTB- 3D Viper GTS wall art

    Very cool! Shame the Viper memorabilia didn't really keep up through the later generations. They had some really neat stuff back in the early days.

    high beam switch problem

    Just confirmed my high beams were on, so thinking I must have bumped the switch when I was pulling it out or putting it back in. As long as the assembly goes together the way you took it apart I think you should be good.

    high beam switch problem

    You probably could do some tape or other glue, as long as it sticks for you. I ended up with the resin just because I had a hard time getting anything else to work. I think tape would probably wear through fairly quickly though. As for your piece being different, I'll have to give mine a try...
