    Finally took the plunge

    Livermore?? I used to take trips up there with my parents since my grandmother (Dad's mom) lived there. Don't hear too much about Livermore. Congrats on the purchase.

    Typical Stuff...

    Stuff magazine had a review on the SRT called "Snake Handler". In typical Stuff fashion, the last two sentences read, "Inside, it's a little more cramped than older Vipers - but far more comfortable than the snake they use for your average rectal exam. Trust me." Asss jokes are soooooo cool.

    Wheel center removal...

    Is there a trick? With the '96, a special tool was supplied and there was a little slot to put the tool in. How does the latest generation wheel center come off?

    Suck back.....

    What is the technical name (if there is one) for that "suck back" sound you get when you push in the clutch and lift off the gas at high rpm just before a shift? Why does it sound like the engine is taking a deep breath after continuously exhaling up to high rpm? (Does this post qualify to...

    Description

    Any idea why the "description" field is empty in my photo in the license plate photos area? It appears in the block when the picture is opened.

    Running on eight?

    This morning it felt like I was running on eight cylinders and it was getting worse. Then I had a shocking thought and looked at the gas gage. Empty. Less than empty. I felt like an idiot. Amazingly enough, I was able to pull into a gas station (what a miracle it was there - I only managed...

    Santa Barbara Cruise

    Cruise was from Orange County on 6-15-02. At The Block (mall) in OC. Waiting for stragglers on 150 West. On the beach in Santa Barbara. Over 50 Vipers. (I heard the count was 54.) I had some bikini girls but could not upload. Slightly over 250K.

    "Custom" GTS

    \"Custom\" GTS Yesterday in Westminster (CA) I saw a very cool plateless (new) GTS. Yellow - no stripes, ACR wheels, custom front fascia, front and side splitter, Hennessey-like wing, and something I've never seen before: Custom rear fascia with 3" twin dual exhaust. (i.e., 4 exhaust ports -...

    The little rheostat......

    that is able to adjust the intensity of the light on the Viper's instrument panel is a feature that is on every car I have known. Now, tell me why I need this feature. The only thing I can think of is that on a really dark road, the panel lights are too bright? Windshield reflection as a...

    Tin foil removal?

    Is there any large disadvantage to taking off the "tin foil" heat shields that cover the stock headers. I think the engine would look better with visible headers. I have seen several bare aftermarket header set-ups and they seem to be OK. How about bare stock headers? Anyone already done this?

    Broken Heater?

    Heat only comes through the floor and dash vents. No heat through vents above the radio (just A/C or unconditioned air). That's just the way it is.

    Why didn't they just chrome them....?

    Why didn\'t they just chrome them....? ...the wheels, that is. What is the benefit, if any, of the polished aluminum, clearcoated?

    New Exhaust System

    After weeks of reading this forum, I made the decision: I just had Dan Cragin up in Santa Monica (CA) install the Corsa cat-back system, smooth tubes and K&Ns. The sound is awsome and just as described here. The look is even better in person. If the Borla system is louder yet, I'm not sure I...
