    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    You should upgrade the head unit too. New head units are much better with digital playback instead of old many moving parts CD players or cassette tapes. When I upgraded my sound system I went crazy trying to get more bass and high fidelity sound. In the end it wasn't worth it because my...

    Smog Time again

    If it's new plugs and wires the only other components in the ignition is coil and engine management. Swap out the plugs and see if the misfire changes cylinders to rule out plugs. Then switch wires and do the same thing. Then you can narrow down the component.

    Where to get 335/30r18 tires mounted

    Yeah, stay away from those discount chain stores. They work on the normal size tires for the masses. You need to find a tire shop that works on exotics. Anyone with a Ferrari, Lambo even Vette should have a list of shops that have specialty equipment to handle wide tires.

    cheap wheels/tire options for storage?

    you know the hubs are off of Dakota truck. Any wheel that fits the Dakota would fit..... Personally I think it's overkill

    cheap wheels/tire options for storage?

    Again the warning is about driving in cold. Not storing.

    cheap wheels/tire options for storage?

    temperature is not the enemy of rubber. It's UV rays. As long as they're not exposed to direct sunlight they should last a long time. The spec regarding returning cold tires to higher temps applies to driving them cold. Unless you're planning on driving them in 20 deg weather you should be...

    3D print an interior door sill plug

    Oh those plugs... I thought they were under the door. This is why I don't like other people working on my car.

    Just curious when would you need to pull that plug. In case the door is flooded?

    passenger side window quit working

    Try to find a picture of what the window pin looks like. It's like an arrow with the clip going around the shaft of the arrow. Once you pull the pin you just need to push/pull out the arrow from the carrier.

    Viper Tech in Austin Texas

    I have the same mentality. I've had to do most of the work myself but some times you just wish there was somebody you can trust to do the job.

    Viper Tech in Austin Texas

    Yes and No. Sure it's an ICE car just like everything else out there but Vipers are basically hand built low volume craft cars. So there are many systems unique to Vipers such as engine controllers, body packaging, not to mention 2 more cylinders. How many other cars have an 8+ liter V10...

    Viper Tech in Austin Texas

    I tried them. They don't roll out of bed for anything under $10k. They only do big jobs.

    Thanks for digging this up. I'm looking for one around ATX too. I'm guessing that Chris isn't around anymore?

    passenger side window quit working

    the window is held onto the carrier with a push in pin. You have to push the window pin out of the hole I believe it was toward the outside of the door. Don't lose the foam pad that is sandwiched between the window and the carrier.

    passenger side window quit working

    Check your wiring at the door hinge. Although passenger side less likely to break but it's still a weak point.

    Door trim bezel covers.

    For $200 I'll have to buy a 3D printer and make my own.

    Best place to tap onto battery voltage:

    I think if you cut power for a short time the PCM won't reset. It's no different than changing a battery. But if you cut power for a long time it will reset. I think there's some capacitors or some residual power storage in there but not sure.

    Best place to tap onto battery voltage:

    Yup it's in the lower driver side behind that little panel cover. Can't remember exactly which circuit but I usually pick something like interior lights or something harmless.

    Best place to tap onto battery voltage:

    I've always just tapped the fuse box in the lower left side of the IP.

    96 RT/10 thats for sale in Michigan

    With 388 miles on it it hasn't been out in public very much. I can't say that I've seen it. Grand Rapids is halfway between Detroit and Chicago. So it may have been known in Chi town.

    Heavy Exhaust Odor in Cabin While Driving

    You get a lot more exhaust fumes when you get rid of cats. If I stand in a garage even with door open my eyes start to water after a few seconds. Tacos would only affect the situation if they were accompanied by beans.
