    Inexpensive Rotors?

    I went to change my brake pads and noticed that I probably need new rotors too. Anyone know of a good place to buy rotors? The dealership wants $130 each...

    What's it to ya?

    What\'s it to ya? Hey all, I'm thinking about possibly selling my current '01 GTS and buying a new SRT-10 or used GTS next year because I want to make some investments this year. I looked at places like autotrader and kbb, but they don't seem to reflect my situation. I would appreciate an...

    Squeak at half throttle?

    It's been there as long as I can remember, but a recent video of my car at the track really made it stand out. Basically, if I modulate the throttle (accelerator actually) more than about 1/3 of the way, I hear a loud, constant metal on metal squeaking coming from the engine area. Sounds a lot...

    Crashing the corvette party

    Had to represent the Viper club at the local Corvette meet at the dragway. In attendance were genXgts, Motor City Madman and myself. Times were ok and could have been better, but I hear it's a slow track. Ryan and I got 12.4s (my all time best run so far is a 12.46 gotten last night), Sean...

    Had my butt handed to me...

    I was coming back from the Dream Cruise this weekend and I noticed a guy riding my @ss. Being the smug punk that I am, I told my girlfriend riding shotgun "I take care of this little annoyance" and I downshifted. Imagine my dismay when the lights didn't disappear off my bumper. He cuts around...

    What's the possibility of 2 bad fuel pumps?

    What\'s the possibility of 2 bad fuel pumps? I had my old fuel pump replaced because it would take forever and a day to start up for work in the morning (it would crank 8+ times before turning over), then the pump would whine like I didn't buy it an engagement ring for a couple minutes. Lately...

    Caked on brake dust?

    I've had my EBCs on for a while now (still squeaky and dusty though after 2000 miles, just not as bad...). In any event, I still have dust and it still accumulates. Since I was a bad boy and didn't clean them immediately, a little of it "baked" into the wheel. Since I'm on my way to getting...

    Drove the SRT today

    I can't say how, but I happened to get a chance to take a spin in a pre-release model today. One item of note, that "muscled up" thing that they were going to do (someone might have already commented on it) essentially amounted to the left and right fenders being brought up about 1" higher at...

    Am I screwed? (dealer damage)

    I dropped the Viper off at the dealer last week. The girlfriend picked it up today because I was at work. When she got to my place she (and I) noticed a huge chip in the paint on the door directly behind the mirror. Since she picked it up, and since we didn't notice it until after it got...

    EMERGENCY repair. Any help out there??

    This morning one of my collegues noted that my lights were on. Thinking it odd becuase I didn't remember turning them on, I went out to my car to find that only the brakes lights were on. Upon further investiagtion, it seems that the clip that holds the master cylinder to the brake pedal arm...

    Car cleaning tips?

    I've searched an read up on the archives and I need to know if this is the correct "VCA/Zaino" approved way of doing things. Keep in mind I'm LAZY and I would like to get a "pretty good" shine. I'm OK with 80% of the look for 20% of the work. Anyway, I'm thinking I need the following (and in...

    Any benchracers out there? (Z06 v Viper)

    My gf's brother took delivery of a 405 Z06 yesterday. He took me for a ride and seemed to acknowledge the fact that the Viper would win, but it seems he's been telling his friends that his is actually faster b/c of the power/weight. Of course he does acknowledge that he isn't a very good...

    Stereo Update

    Yes! Pics, pics, pics!!! I have the same speakers (size-wise; though I got the 88100DVC instead of the titaniums and CDTs for the comps) I managed to save the spare and most of the truck. How's yours set up?

    Need advice on aftermarket exhaust.

    Well, in that case, you should choose from Corsa, Corsa, and of course Corsa. Take a listen at www.corsaperf.com Forget about headache inducing drone (the only exhaust of it's type!). The quietest while still being loud. It's a wonderful thing!

    One complaint from the Dodge dealer...

    I've been tooling around to various dealerships looking for a Luxo SUV (don't worry, this isn't really off topic). I found something that really bugs me. All the dealerships I went to had 1 thing in common. That being if you buy their "top end" brand vehicles (ie, Cadillacs at the GM dealer...

    I have been VIOLATED!!!!

    That didn't take long... I went out to the bar for the 3rd time ever (in the Viper, that is). Tried valet parking so I'd be out front instead of parking it on my own in the back. Didn't notice much of anything last night , but this morning I take a look and low and behold: The front fascia...

    EXTREMELY disappointed with Sean Roe clutch adjustment

    DISCLAIMER: This has nothing to do with TUNER bashing, simply a bad PART and/or DESIGN staff. OK, maybe I had a bum part or maybe I had a stressful weekend or something, or I just haven't been satisfied yet by an aftermarket part (other than smooth tubes ), but Sunday night I put the clutch...

    Well, I finally got stereo pics (installed)

    I would have to say that, overall, I'm 80-85% happy with it. In retrospect, I would have measured the slots myself instead of ("Hey, remember how I thought that 10"s would fit in those holes?" "Yes." "Well, I don't think I'll have room. So I'll fab up some fiberglass and flip the speakers...

    The ULTIMATE posers (track pics)

    Went down to the track Sunday with genXgts. Numerous top fuel dragsters and car after car running 7s, 8s, 9s, 10s and 11s. Previous to the event, we both toured the Viper plant and bought shirts from the gift shop saying: 450 HP 200 MPH WANT SOME ? So, we wait for our class and line up (time...
