My viper keeps throwing a code (no 5 volt to the map sensor) and several people have told me that the VEC 1 is suspect. Car runs very rough and the A/F meter stays pegged on the rich side then the car dies. The connections are all soldered and in good shape. One person had this problem and...
Eibach\'s and Koni adjustment = GOOD!
Finally got around to changing out the springs and adjusted the stock Koni's at the same time. VERY nice improvement in handling. Only regret is not doing this sooner...LOL!! :)
My 97 GTS is throwing the no 5 volt to map sensor and I was wondering if this could be related to wiring the VEC1. May be something different, but my viper tech wants to looks a the VEC1 wiring diagram.
Anyone have a similar issue? Thanks for the help....Kurt
I'm a little late in posting this, but I LOVE my chromed HRE 547's that Brian sent!!! It was great doing business with you and the wheels/tires were absolutely perfect! Your a man of your word!!
Now, about that sellers remorse...... :D :D :D
Looks like we both need to change our...
HELP - Those who have adjusted stock Koni\'s!!!
I am going to be adding Eibach's and adjusting my stock Koni's this weekend and was hoping to get some imput on the adjustment of the shocks. I know that many go with max dampening up front (fully compressed then back off maybe 1/4 turn?) but was...
David,
I sent you a PM and e-mail (hopefully you got it). Would like to talk when you have a minute. If you'll e-mail or PM me with a phone number, I'll call you back. Thanks......Kurt
Looking for gently used HRE 547\'s!!!
Seems like many people are switching rims these days so I thought I would too!! :)
Before going out and buying a new set, I thought I would check to see if any of you have a set for sale. I'm looking for a nice set of 18 inch HRE 547's. Please let me...
Going from 17\'s to 19\'s - Help!!
Have stock 17's and was thinking about going to 19's (F 275/30 or 285/30 and R 345/30). What is the impact on the speedo and odometer? Any serious considerations as why NOT to do this? I've heard that it will help fill the wheel well, but it must throw the...
Purner 19\'s - When/will they come in 18\'s?
I like the new Purner 19 inch split 5 spoke. Anyone know if there are plans to make this same wheel in 18 inch?
I know that I can add an H pipe pretty easily, but would prefer an H pipe if possible. Anyone know if/how this would work with my Borla catback? Thanks for your help!!
I have a 97 GTS with Belanger headers, RT high flow cats, and 3" Borla cat-back. Was wanting some information on adding an X or H pipe and how this would change the sound (ie. louder, deeper)??
Any comments would be appreciated!!
Everything has been fine in the past and then I get into the car last night for a drive. Idle with the clutch in and all is fine. Once I let the clutch out, the car dies. Did this several times, with the same result.
I then took it around the block. Everything is fine until I let the...
Opening stock cat to 3\" in & out????
I currently have a Borla cat back and am adding Belanger headers. I thought that I would also add high flow cats at the same time and be done. Several people have informed me that they would just open the stock cat to 3" in/out and skip the high flow...
I just installed my VEC1 and was curious as to what other 97 owners with light mods (filters, tubes and 3" cat-back) are using for their settings (already did a search for information!!)? I know that Shawn indicated a while back that 96-99 settings may be similar.
Your help is...
Traded my 94 RT this past summer for a 97 GTS and couldn't be happier!! I love both cars and it really comes down to personal preference. Have fun making your decision and let me know if I can help.
First of all, thanks to those who gave me the GREAT tips!! I had a blast and was really glad to have had the tips from you guys. I made a total of 6 runs with the following results:
Best:
1/4 Mile ET: 12.23
1/4 Mile MPH: 118.012
60 Foot ET: 2.009
RT: .802
Worst:
1/4 Mile ET: 12.403
1/4...
I ordered one, but have not heard anything. I figured it would take some time, but does anyone know how long before they start shipping them? Thanks....Kurt
Any truth to the rumor that late 97\'s have....
a different cam? Like many, I have heard that the OE cam was outsourced on the late 97's, thereby providing a more "aggressive" cam in these cars. Anyone know the scoop? If there was a different cam, when did the change take place? Thanks for...
I just had my drivers side door hinge replaced because it would not stay open on its own (have 14K miles on 97 GTS). The hinge was black. Hope this helps....Kurt
Try V-Mania and Autoform (both are sponsers, I think - so check the sponsors link). Both are very nice products and a great improvement over the stock side curtains. Let me know if I can help....Kurt
I have heard that there is some construction in Memphis and it's best to go around (to the north loop I think). Can anyone add any comments or suggestions? Thanks......Kurt
The windshield on my 97 GTS appears grainy when looking through it in direct sunlight.(looks like specs of sand-but don't come off) Is this normal? Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.
P.S. I seem to recall a similar issue with the windshield on my 94 RT?!
I checked my coolant level several weeks ago before running out at Motorsports Ranch. The coolant level in the main tank was to the top, but the overflow level was towards the bottom of the tank. I went ahead and filled the overflow tank to about the middle and ran on the track without any...
I'm installing my GT2 canards (winglets) on my car and was hoping to get a good pic of the correct placement on the front facia. Also, any thoughts/advice would be appreciated.
I saw the recent post regarding the ebay GT2, which does have a pic (just not up close!!) Hoping for a little more...
