    Removing Cats on 2000 ACR

    Seems to be what most people say regarding cats and CEL. Just hope I’m not the exception. What year is your car? And I just don’t understand why a Viper would be anything other than loud and aggressive sounding. The entire car makes that presentation in every other way, why not in its volume as...

    Removing Cats on 2000 ACR

    Hi everyone. I wanted to post a new thread about this because everything I was reading was from over a decade ago. I will be removing the cats on my 2000 ACR on the 20th and wanted to know if there is any updated information on where to get what I need to make sure the CEL doesn't kick on? I...

    98 GTS engine and door problem

    Steve, I'm just going to put your number in my phone in case I'm ever in a situation where I'm stuck in the Viper and can't get it started for what seems like a silly reason haha.

    Anyone recognize this viper?

    The first ACRs came with Koni then sometime in 2000 they switched over to Dynamic.

    Anyone recognize this viper?

    Very cool car! I remember seeing this type of body kit back in the day, or at least the front bumper. Think i posted in your other thread about one of the mods done. Wish I could help with the others but other than general maintenance, I'm just a driver haha.

    2001 viper gts various questions

    The wire you're holding in your hand below the battery is a quick disconnect for a Battery Tender system. I have them on all my cars including my 2000 ACR and it's literally in the same place yours is so I don't even have to open the hood to get to it when I'm done driving. I just reach up in...

    Low Coolant In Overflow??

    Is there a how to video on how to remove the bumper? You said 5-10 mins but sounds scary to me but I would like to do this and check out my coolant tank/clean up the area under there as well. I haven't found a good video showing just this yet and seems like a good idea for someone that knows it...

    old age problems

    Is there a video or layout of the process to take the front bumper off? I would like to do this but having some guidance always helps.

    Ranking The 5 Best V10 Engines Of All Time (And The 5 Worst)

    Very surprised they put the Viper engine ahead of the LFA and CGT. Flattering to see but I don't know if I could do the same if all three were in a room next to one another. Viper and LFA would fight over 2nd and 3rd with the CGT taking 1st.

    Viper values

    I bought mine years ago with the attitude that it was an amazing bang for the buck and I don't think they will ever get lower than they currently are. I also don't think they will be crazy valuable in my life time. This is also coming from the guy who sold his pair Supra MKIV Turbos after the...

    The Viper Search

    I bought my '00 ACR in Huntington Beach CA, flew out and drove it cross country back to Livingston NJ. One of the best decisions I made and I now I can't wait to get another car across the country so I can drive it back.

    Tracking the history of Venom 650R from NJ

    Very cool car. I'm in NJ and I've never seen that one. But then again, I rarely see Vipers anywhere. There was a 97 GTS Hennessey that ended on BAT recently that I thought this was the one but I see that on was a 600. Both in Jersey, both 1997 and both Blue/White...

    GTS vs ACR

    I have a 2000 ACR and I believe you hit all of the points. I've heard that the gearing was shorter but can't find anything to prove that. Do you have any knowledge of that? I was looking for a GTS years ago when I purchased mine and an ACR came up for sale that was right so I went for it. Given...

    Mid-80s Corvette w/Gen I Viper Body = WTF?

    I came across this the other day. Crack Pipe for sure but I'm sure here on a Viper forum, people will say we are biased and enjoy our Vipers to look and sound like a Viper

    Motor Mounts - Where to buy

    Those Dom's Motorsports ones look clean and nice. Hefty Premium though. When do these normally need to be changed or what will I be feeling when I need to change them? I have a 2000 ACR with 63k miles

    Need passenger side ,body door weather seal #4848304AH

    I'm interested in this as well. I'm not sure which part number it is but I will also be needing the seals around the passenger door because I have seen a little water leaking in back by the exterior door release button (black plastic piece) on my 2000 ACR.

    Where to get new headlights?

    At this point I’d buy a pair of new ones if someone could figure out how to run a batch of OEM ones. Would be a good market since don’t Gen 1 & 2 use the same headlights?

    Where to get new headlights?

    Thank you for the website. I just wrote VPRA hoping they have a passenger side 2000 headlight. Mine is getting foggy these days so I'd like to replace it if I can find one.

    Congrats on the car. The classic color combo!

    Switched Insurance

    I use Grundy for my sports cars. Same deal as Hagerty with stating value and paying premium accordingly. I think that a good video of a walk around and the car running etc would be fine to show condition in court.

    Dump it or restore it (96 RT/10 Special Edition)

    I plan on someday refreshing everything on my ACR and I would spend the money and make it 100% to enjoy the remainder of my life before selling it. Guess it depends on how bad you wanted a Viper and your passion for it.

    Anyone selling a very high mileage GTS soon

    Sounds like a good one. I’m partial though. Bought my 2000 ACR two years ago and had around same miles. It’s been wonderful for the last 6k miles since I bought it.

    Gen 1 owners and/or service manual

    Thank you for posting that! Anyone know how many changes there would be for a 2000 ACR? Couldn't agree more. Would be a great thing to have here.
