    '00 ACR Catalytic converters.

    Is it possible to wrap the catalytic converters with header wrap to keep down the crazy heat that burns everything in the side pods? The test pipes were ok for keeping everything nice and cool, but I'm tired of breathing gas fumes since I installed the 4-box Borla system, and the cabin noise is...

    Clutch hydraulics system doesn't function when car freezes.

    The clutch hydraulic system stops working when my 00 ACR freezes. It's ok after the engine warms things up above freezing after a few minutes of idling. Anybody else experience this problem?

    Oil pan bash protection?

    Has anyone ever made any frame scraping plates or anything like that to protect the oil pan which is the lowest item under that part of the car. I like that great low look, but I also daily drive my ACR. Seems to me every where you look there are more and more speed bumps everywhere. Seems like...

    Gallardo's exhaust note made me jealous.

    Gallardo\'s exhaust note made me jealous. My viper is too quiet. Can I just replace the two resonators just aft of the catalytic converters with straight pipe? Its a relatively simple job. The original muffler is perfect and I like the understated look of the stock tips. I'd prefer not to...

    How do I adjust the koni shocks on my ACR to make the ride softer? Quebec's "natural speed bumps" roads are killing my street Viper.

    What happened to this forum?

    Why does everybody keep giving attention those people trying to make a buck out of vandalizing Vipers? Let them go crawl back under their rock already.

    Any "normal" brands recommended for tranny and diff. fluids?

    Any \"normal\" brands recommended for tranny and diff. fluids? After reading all the posts on what oil to use in tranny or the differential. I'm just wondering if any readily accessible brands are OK. :confused:

    Acr idles fast when weather is hot.

    My '00 Acr idles nicely at 750rpm when the outside air temperature is under 75 degrees. When its a hot day, above 80 degrees, it idles at 1250rpm. This is very annoying as it compounds the effects of the heat. Is there an easy fix like a temp. sensor or something I can change. Its not a...

    Side pod burning,

    I was idling my Viper the other day in order to charge the A/C. After a time I discovered the right side sill was burning. The side where an old repair had been done. I hosed it down. How is the outer side sill heat sheild mounted? I really don't want to take apart the good side to check...

    Is it just me? Or...

    Why are there so many posts on this forum from people wondering where to get original replacement parts for their Viper? A- It says Dodge on the left corner of the back bumper. That should be a big clue. B- Its a current car. Not some old obscure make. Must be a 21st century thing...

    Hey Chrysler ........what's the point?

    Hey Chrysler ........what\'s the point? This post is turning into the endless "wheelscam" post that somebody mercifully terminated a while ago. We're on the RT/10 and GTS forum. For the lovers of these models, which became obsolete in 2003 anyway. Why would a person that's supposed to like a...

    Idle speed alternates from normal to fast.

    I know this topic's been addressed before, but what was the solution? My Viper idles at normal speed sometimes around 500rpm and over 1000 other times for no apparent reason. This is a real annoying problem in a beast like my '00 ACR in hot traffic. I'd prefer to drive the Viper more than my...

    Motor clacks when cold.

    On my '00 ACR, when starting in the morning, the motor has a loud knocking that goes completely away after about 10min's of driving. The longer the car sits, the louder the initial knocking. The engine has the T&D roller rockers. Any guesses as to what's wrong.

    Smooth tubes.

    Can anyone post a picture of an original '00 ACR engine bay? I'm not sure if the intake tubes are original in this x-racer I now own. I've replaced the paper filter elements with the K&N's already. The car now has black bellows type intake tubes. Are these supposed to be smooth?

    Air filters.

    Are the 2 rectangular air filters in my '00 ACR, dealer only items or does anyone know of another cross reference? They look like conventional white paper filters. The car came from the Florida area where I suspect it was raced. Its black with silver stripes. Anyone have any info on it?

    Oil filter removal

    How do you replace the oil filter on a 2000 ACR? Mine has the frame right underneath it, and there seems to be no other access.
