Hello all! lookin to purchasin my first viper ever!
Enjoy your new Viper. It can be a life altering experience. Rule #1 for new Viper owners. Be sure your steering wheel is straight, the road ahead is clear, and you are totally focused before you put the throttle fully down for the first times. The torque takes a bit to get used to. Once you...- Paul Hawker

Best Rim Doctor in San Diego
Rims are too important to be repaired in many cases. Would request the moving company to replace them with new. Not many wheel repair shops would warranty them on a 200 mile per hour track exotic. Might put them in contact with Jon at Parts Rack for a good price on exact factory replacements.- Paul Hawker

Replace Stock Tires or Upgrade Wheels?
The Blue/White 96 GTS you purchased is a classic design. The stock wheels look perfect on it. You want to keep those, no matter which aftermarket wheels you might add. Just slap on some fresh rubber and enjoy your ride, at least until you burn those off in time. If you want some more bling...- Paul Hawker

North Texas improv
Jon Reep was on stage at the VOI a few years ago. Had everybody in stitches. Told how he got selected to do the advertising "Hey...that thing got a HEMI!" line, which became an instant CLASSIC! He hung around after the show and drank beers with everybody in the lobby. He loves to tell stories...- Paul Hawker

2008 Viper Hood
The vents grills are not solid, but allow hot engine air and pressure buildup to escape from the engine compartment. Rain and car wash water will still get in.- Paul Hawker

Help with my 94
Head gaskets are first suspect. If you still have your original gaskets, they can be replaced by much better ones. \ Next would be to check heater core.- Paul Hawker

New Forum Member looking for Gen II GTS
Glad to check those things out for you. My first Viper (have had 3) was a 96 B/W GTS. Fell in love with it when I first saw it at a autoshow. It was up on a turn table with a huge crowd gathered around, taking pictures. It was the Shelby Cobra that I had always wanted, but with air...- Paul Hawker

New Forum Member looking for Gen II GTS
Two choices. I know an auto broker that does transfers for many of our local club members. He can help with inspection and send you pictures as well as handling all the paperwork, shipping and could even handle the transfer of funds, kind of an escrow thing so both buyer and seller can be...- Paul Hawker

Viper ADR
I believe that Viper has been hesitant to offer a factory supercharger because the Viper has always been developed as more of a road racing car than drag racer. Drag racing is only for a few seconds, and supercharging would work tremendously well in that application. For endurance road racing...- Paul Hawker

trunk lid wont stay up
As the temperature gets lower, those struts become weaker. Need to be replaced every 10 years or so. Get from dealer, or cheaper from local parts store.- Paul Hawker

IT'S OFFICIAL!!... bye bye VIPER :(
Imagine provenance will be much more important than rarity. Color is not as important than one that has some history, such as setting track records, being owned by a famous person or winning inportant races. Most of the engines and transmissions are pretty much all the same from the factory, but...- Paul Hawker

Accidentally put 87 on my viper!!
No worries on burning off a little low octane fuel. Most cars are designed to reduce ignition advance if they detect lower than optimum fuel. Best thing you can do is go to another gas station and top it off with the highest octane available. Vipers are sturdy beasts : >)- Paul Hawker

DOT 3 or DOT 4 for Brakes & Clutch on 2001?
Maybe the answer is to use Dot 4 for track use, but you need to change it more often. Use Dot 3 for street use, or if you change the fluid less often than every 2 years.- Paul Hawker
