    San Antonio Cars and Coffee

    Does anyone go to Cars and Coffee in San Antonio? I hear the next one will be at the Starbucks/Game Stop/Super Target parking lot at the northwest corner of 1604 and Blanco on November 28th.

    Draining coolant from block

    It takes several more times than a couple....it took me six drain/refill/run/cool cycles to get completely clear water....I had the same reservations about removing the block plugs.

    GTS Value Depreciation/Appreciation?

    Exactly....when I bought mine in April, I had every intention to keep it 100% stock forever, but after a few months I couldn't take it anymore and ordered a Corsa and high flow cats from Jon B...I may have hurt the value a bit, but the car is so much more enjoyable to drive now, it was worth...

    Can You Identify These Wheels?

    I think the IRLs are one piece though....I'm leaning towards them being the RKII, but even those look a little different in some photos.

    97 GTS difficult to engage 6 gear?

    Not that it's a fix, but unless you have a 3:55 or higher gear in the rear end, the stock gearing makes sixth gear pretty much useless anyway.

    Sneaky Pete shadow (pics)

    That's almost as good as a Virgin Mary sighting in San Antonio which, of course, would have made the evening news with hundreds of people lined up for blocks waiting to see it.

    Wheel polishing on 97 GTS

    They were in good shape to begin with, but they went ahead and cleaned them up and buffed them out a little....they matched up with the wheels fine.

    Wheel polishing on 97 GTS

    Yes....clear powdercoat. They told me they completely strip them down, work out any scratches, repair any dings or grind marks (adding metal if necessary as they had to do on the edge of one of my fronts), checked for trueness and runout, and polish them out before the clear coat....they...

    Stock Exhaust Manifold Question

    Thank you! Did you break the nuts loose on the back side before spinning the bolts out or just go at it from the bolt side from the start?....just curious because the bolts on the side of both collectors closest to the front of the car will be very difficult to get to (without a two foot 3/8"...

    Wheel polishing on 97 GTS

    Yessir, the stock 17s...but oops, checked the invoice and it was actually $439. They originally told me $110 per wheel when I took them in but I told them to take their time and didn't hold them to their usually promised 24-48 hour turnaround. I also took them in loose from the car and with no...

    Stock Exhaust Manifold Question

    I'm in the process of putting 3" high flow cats/Corsa catback on my '97 GTS, but will be keeping the stock exhaust manifold and 2.5" elbows (for now...Belangers later) and will need to remove the elbows to weld the cats/reducers to them. Here's the problem....When I got under the car to...

    Front/Rear Alignment

    Can anyone recommend a good shop in the San Antonio/Austin area who has experience doing front and rear alignments on GenII Vipers? I had Mission Dodge on IH35 set the toe but they quoted me 12 hours labor (~$1,200+ with the kit) to do the full alignment, which is ****ing crazy. The...

    Front Plate - pics

    It probably still isn't a legal way to mount it, but it may keep the Rozzers off your back anyway....any concerns with blocking the airflow to the radiator?
