    Oil Change Question

    The local Dodge dealer where I live does not have a Viper tech, but the service department says they do oil changes for Vipers. I usually go to the Viper-tech dealership, but I have been very busy as of late and don't really have the time to make the 70 mile trip to Vegas. Thus, my question...

    SRT Viper Drifitng on TV now

    The "G4" channel has competitive drfiting on for the next hour. The SRT Viper driven by Hubbinette is in it, as well as the usual ricer imports. Just thought I would post if anyone was interested in seeing it. It's not exactly the most captivating of racing, but it is a bit different nonetheless.

    Side Sill Screw Popped Out-----Need Replacement/Fix

    I haven't taken my snake out for a few weeks until yesterday and I took it out for a nice drive. Upon the first few minutes of the drive, I noticed a slight rattling coming from the driver's side, side sill. I figured it was just the cold so I proceeded along.

    Chrome Smooth Tubes Installation Question

    I know the installation of the chrome smooth tubes is rather simple and straightforward. I believe all there really is to do is to remove the stock tubes and slide the silicone adapters on to the throttle bodies and airbox. However, I remember reading a while back that some type of lubricant or...

    I have done some research before posting this thread but from all the indecision on this issue I am still unsure about Aluminum Flywheels. Perhaps a question more tailored to my specific needs will be able to get me an answer. First off, I am having some mods done to my car: Corsa Track...
