    Bottom Slide

    Hi friends! Does somebody have an answer to this ?? As I was watching the underneath of my 1999 GTS ( sublime view ! ), I wondered what is the specific function of that thick alluminium (?) slide screwed to the frame between rear tires ?? I thought : 1) it is a slide intended for off-road :(...

    Stock battery life

    No I won't, but I will probably join the Corvette meeting in Italy on the 25th of April, as soon as I will be sure to be welcome. Sometime we are as welcome as a breadstick in the eye among Corvette owners !!!

    Before and after RECALL 999 pics can be found...

    Thanks for the pictures!! I have not been lucky about my 1999 GTS recall . . . not only they never wrote to me, but it took several months to Chrysler Italy to answer my mail asking about the recall. They eventually wrote addressing me to the dealer who sold the car to me, who I strongly doubt...

    GOT PULLED OVER!!!

    Maybe it's nothing new, but I found a solution to the front plate problem myself : front plates are really huge in Italy and I didn't have the heart to make holes through the front fascia to fit the plate-holder. After being warned a couple of times by the cops (who never fail to stop a Viper to...

    OIL TEMPERATURE?

    Great topic Markus. I was wondering about oil temperature in the Viper. It should be nice to have a stock oil temp. gauge in the car. I am sure some additional oil cooling would add to the cooling system wich is often. . . let's say poor. But from my racing experience I have to say that oil...

    Right window noisy at speed

    Thanks to you all guys, especially to Markus. My vents are "standard", did not use them for any pourpose, I guess pressure should flow through. I hope someone at Chrysler is raeding this: it seems the problem to be frequent to right doords only !! The guys installing right doors there are...

    Right window noisy at speed

    I have a problem with my GTS's right window: when I reach 280 kph (175 mph) the window slips out of the door seal and the noise is unbearable. I already checked: seals, hood / door alignment, clousure of the window. Everything seems ok to me. I even tryed to close the intake of air in the cabin...

    Stupid Q. of the day

    People say stupid things about Vipers , especially here in Italy where the car is RARE. The most blasphemous I heard from the onlookers? "Ho Yes, it's the Japanese car with a Mercedes engine!!" Keep those coming!!

    Front End Cover (BRA) help

    Hi! I bought the Mopar bra and found it well done and quite easy to install, at least the bottom part. Actually found that upper part did'nt fit, impossible to install. At the moment did not notice any damage to the paint. Don't forget that you have a big nose there and that gravel makes a lot...

    Viper's flaw

    Viper\'s flaw When the RT 10 was first introduced it did not convince me: it's boulevard-cruiser look did not make me feel it was a true sport-car. Later, when the GTS was added to the model range, I really felt overwelmed. What a beauty!! That roof beautifully matched the dramatic lines of the...
