    harmonic balancer / crank problem

    Chris from ART diagnosed a squeaking belt as a crank separating from the harmonic balancer. The bolt was barely holding the pulley to the crank and after tightening there is still significant fore and aft movement of the pulley. He thinks I need a new crank which means major surgery. Before...

    Are stoptechs worth it for the street

    I drive on average 8000 miles on the street. I have 50,000 miles on my 01 GTS. It will need rotors and pads at it's next oil change in 3000 miles. Given that's $1000 in parts and I can get a couple hundred for my factory calipers is it worth upgrading to the Stoptech 4 wheel brake kit for 99%...

    Random Tech Exhaust

    I had one put on my GTS to go with my 3" high flow cats. I am really happy with it. It is louder than stock which was no surprise. What I like about it is that there is no drone and it's really livable at idle and cruise. When you get on it, it's loud. The tips are also cool. I bought it...

    Frame damage

    My GTS was in an accident. The frame near the rear control arm was bent. Can it be replaced or straightened or is the car totalled? Right now, the wheel well on the right side is 2 inches higher than the wheel well on the left. The Dodge dealer says the frame is gone. When I meet my...

    SSR wheels on a Saphire GTS(sorry if it's a repost)

    SSR wheels on a Saphire GTS(sorry if it\'s a repost) Does anyone have pics? Is there any reason not to buy SSR wheels? They are light, look good and are cheap and my factory wheels all have curb rash. I am looking for why this is too good to be true.

    weight of 18" stock wheels

    weight of 18\" stock wheels I did a search and could not find this in the archives. This has to have been asked before. How much do the 2001 stock wheels weight? When people do wheel upgrades is it just for looks or are after market wheels lighter/stronger as well?

    plugs and plug wires on a stock car

    I have hit 30,000 miles on my 01 GTS. I am getting the 30,000 mile service at Maxwell Dodge in Austin, TX. My car is basically stock except for smooth tubes, S&B air filters and random tech high flow cats. Does it make sense to get MSD plug wires and Bosch platinum plugs? Or is it a...

    Random Tech 3" exhaust

    Random Tech 3\" exhaust Does anyone have one on their car? How does it compare to the others? Is the only difference between the cat back exhaust and the rear sub assembly the presence of high flow mufflers on the cat back? It seems like you can get high flow mufflers for less than the $500...

    I had an accident and JonB really helped

    Folks, I try to refrain from "me too" posts but I had to take some time to mention what Jon B at Parts Rack did for me. Back in mid December, a pick up truck backed into my hood in a parking lot. He hit above the wheel and put a significant series of scratches in the hood. Initially I tried...

    SRT brakes

    I drove an SRT today for the first time. What really stood out to me were the brakes. I have never driven a car that stops like that. The power was marginally more than my GTS. I couldn't go nuts cornering since it's not my car. The brakes were spectacular. With mods, how close can I get...

    side sill on curb(Shoot me)

    I was pulling out of a bank drive through lane and like an idiot turned the wheel too fast. I hit the side sill on the curb at the bottom of the side sill. If you go from the back of the car, it appears that at the bottom of the side sill there is a 2 inch push in that runs 40% of the way...

    2001 Oil Capacity

    I put my 500th mile on my 2001 GTS today and changed the oil. I checked the owners manual for capacity and it said 10 quarts. My buddy has a 1999 and his capacity is 8.5. Why does mine take an additional 1.5 quarts. He is already fuming that mine has ABS and idles a lot smoother. We are both...

    Autocrossing

    Any reason not to? I normally autocross my RX-7 but it's in the shop and there is an event this weekend. I just got my Viper. I would like to keep my points up for the year. Other than chunking my street tires, is there any compelling reason not to autocross a Viper? The car has 500 miles...
