    interior map lights

    A while ago I posted about my interior map lights not turning on when I hit the switch, however turning on and off when I opened and closed the doors. This weekend I had my battery tender hooked up to the car and while inside noticed that the map lights switched on and off just fine. When I...

    which sparkplugs do you like best?

    Dom thanks so much for that thorough answer. On a related note, over the life of the plug is there a noticable loss in power? or, do plugs stay relatively consistent in their performance throughout their operating life cycle?

    which sparkplugs do you like best?

    Seems like Stock champs are the way to go for stock to lightly modded cars, my question is WHEN do you change the plugs/wires? car is 8.5 yrs old with 20k. one service manual I briefly saw recommended 30,000 miles. seems like too long to wait.

    Hey Rolstar, Scotty has been my guy for the past 8 1/2 years, sadly I can never get the car back to NJ on the weekdays when he is in the shop. So, at least for the time being, I have to find more reasonable solution while I'm living in the Bethesda/Rockville area. However I'm planning on...

    service

    Hey Guys, so many questions to ask, probably going to ramble a bit. I don't trust too many mechanics/technicians, so when I find a good one I usually stick with them. I had to move away from Jersey for my job and therefore my Viper tech. However I found a no B.S. guy near my new...

    head unit install

    Thanks for confirming this guys, without changing anything in the car save for the head unit itself, there should be no problems with the rear speaker/amp. Well i'll have to slap some knowledge into this guy. Thanks again guys!

    head unit install

    okay before everyone jumps on me, yes, i did do a search, no i did not find the answer. I have a new head unit going into the car in two weeks, however the install tech was telling me that since the viper has the 'infinity' system, that they would have to do a 'rewire' and that the end result...

    Anyone know this car?

    that car has definitely seen a lot of miles, as mentioned the fascia is an issue, it doesn't look like it lines up with the hood properly. The sport pad and the clear tape have definitely taken a beating, also the weatherstripping surround for the passenger side window looks like it has come...

    viper vs. sl65 amg.....

    looking at those stock 65 AMG times you probably won't have to do much, but definitely the biggest and smartest improvement you could make is to ditch the runflats and get some PS2's or Kumho's. good luck over the winter.

    viper vs. sl65 amg.....

    stock for stock, he's got the power on you, but has more weight. He doesn't have to be as good a driver with TC and Auto gearbox. With the right driver a Gen 3 SRT should have that car handled, albeit a damn close race. An SRT should be quicker to 60, 1/4 and top end.

    viper vs. sl65 amg.....

    Hey Royman, Your thread title intrigued me so I read your post. Not to sound like an ass, but it sounds like you two are locked in this cycle of one-upping each other? My .02 cents is that there is no room for ego in these cars, especially with this much power. I don't know what you guys...

    Factory Black Gen 2 Mats Anyone?

    how do you get your factory mats to stop curling up? My driver's mat ALWAYS starts to slip downward on the slanted/vertical portion of the footwell and bunches up underneath the gas pedal. It drives me crazy so I mostly do not drive with the drivers mat in place. I would like to however I...

    iPod with oem stereo

    from what I have heard the OEM harness does not fit into any other head units, alpine included, nor is there an adapter for the harness. Apparently the new head unit will have to be spliced/hard wired into the OEM harness. If this is not correct please chime in guys.

    iPod with oem stereo

    hey white out, I've been looking into this same question recently for my 01 and it seems that the only steps up from an FM transmitter are an FM modulator or new head unit. I've heard bad things about the FM modulators as they seem to pick up interference from the engine through the rev range...

    Heritage Dodge in Owing Mills

    that is wonderful news and definitely a place I will be checking out in the future. On the contrary I would warn against using Montrose dodge in gaithersburg MD. Complete viper tax rip off. When I needed to get a lug stud put back on the rear hub after a tire shop broke it, montrose was...
