    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Thats such a bad idea, im really surprised its coming from you Dean. Wix and Napa filters only have a 90psi bypass for a motor with a 110psi startup. To each their own, but running unfiltered used oil through the block makes my skin crawl.

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Ive also never had trouble finding 15w-50, even when stocks went down, so i am guessing its a regional thing. Wish it were easier to ship, i could have made a fortune in the Pinch...

    Spreadsheet of 2001 Sapphire Blue Viper VIN#s

    Jeff Gardner has already compiled all this data for the IVR, other than maybe some new mileage/location info youre about to put in alot of effort for something you could probably pay him cheap to get.

    Removing ancient Viper security system?

    I just removed a Viper Security System and unknown remote start from my Honda earlier this year. Not the same i know, but i suspect the drama will be. You need to take your time and deal with every bad/cut connection in turn - if you miss one, or fail to properly re- connect the wiring it could...

    VIN - another "where is it?" thread.

    You need a second location for the VIN or another picture of the VIN before you bought it?

    Just bought K&N Viper (Jerry Mall?)

    I can say that ive seen that car (or one painted similarly) alot over the years, but unfortunately i dont remember any specifics. Do you know who "built" it and how, or is that what youre looking for?

    Still Loving my 2000 RT/10 after over 20 yrs

    Officially bought Mistress on January 31, 2003, still have her today... though, like you, life circumstances prevent me from driving her as much as i used to. Still hope that will change some day...

    (New Here)2006 Viper - What should be my first modifications?

    Im not being mean, but i think the first thing you should do is learn how to drive it properly, then drive it a while to see what YOU feel it lacks. Putting a big blower or suspension on a car as high strung as a Viper may just make it unpalatable... or worse undrivable... to a noob...

    Accident today....Need advice

    Depending on your policy there is a real chance they may total it as non-repairable. If you love the car, whatever you do, do not take a buyout. Most people who dont understand insurance will tell you to total it and "buy back" the remains - the catch is that the insurance company is not...

    Website Analysis

    Huh... so a group of troublemakers purposely tank one club because its "too expensive" and has "too many rules," then they go out and form their own club, and suddenly theyre having serious money issues and no one wants to go there anymore? Makes me wonder where theyd be if they actually paid...

    Reality check....

    I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but if MPGs factor into any part of your purchase then youre buying the wrong car. This is a 500cid V10 - my truck AVERAGES 10mpg highway with this motor so anything above 16mpg in a sports car is a feat of engineering in my book. Ive tapped 30mpg...

    How could a clean Gen3 viper sell for $38K?

    Ive been seeing alot of $40-45k Gen3s rolling around the past six months, $38k isnt ridiculous considering the issues this example has. As the Millennials are coming into their own and "drivers" dying off, there is a clear market shift happening from muscle to digital. Rawness, which some would...

    Battery maintainer/tender?

    Im not sure if AGM was even standard enough in 94 to be a factory on any vehicle now that i think of it? Personally i use 5amp Battery Tenders on all my cars, truck, and tractor now since the upgraded unit can self-determine which core the battery is using. They are expensive, and dont last as...

    2006 Viper with a lifter tick

    Mobil1 15w50 (large amounts of Zinc) or 0w-40 (dont forget the Viper Specific Filter) should really reduce that noise and is a better option for the motor (unless you live the car in winter in Nome.)

    Viper Owner’s Invitationals

    Im sorry, thats not what i meant at all - i was referring specifically to VOIs, which are national events that require HUGE amount of time, resources, and connections to organize. You can hang out with fellow members on a local level literally anytime you want, especially if you want to...

    Viper Owner’s Invitationals

    Wayside. VOIs are funded through membership dues, and right now the funds are way down because people would simple rather not pay memberships to clubs anymore. The ******** at the other site got us booted from our last VOI venue because they thought it would be funny. It ended up being a...

    Any recommendations on 4 Post Car Lift

    I went with Gregg Smith Equipment's Atlas 9000# lift. Been over 10 years now and i have been nothing but happy with it. Its tight on both the RamSRT and GTS, but isnt a hindrance...

    NEED HELP...Had an ACCIDENT

    Thats a business number so im guessing hes just spamming the site because someone mentioned an accident. For the record - JonB (partsrack) is THE go-to for help with diminished value claims. Whatever you may have heard about the man, he has helped dozens of members not get taken to the bank...

    NEED HELP...Had an ACCIDENT

    I agree with Steve - call Chuck, if he cannot do the repairs locally he can certainly advise you on who he would use.

    Classifieds

    Classifieds were shut down a while ago. Not much traffic and some people didnt know how to use them properly. Easier to moderate the forums than have another person try to wrangle 20 "trade my kia for a viper" ads every day...
