    I have been VIOLATED!!!!

    Brett, never let the valet park your car...sually had them a $10 and park it myself, they usually have me put it up front anyway. Also, what club was it (Royal Oak?). Just want to know for future reference. Drop me an email if you prefer. Thanks

    2tall, glad to see you finally got the snake... did the Canton police force you over to Farmington Hills Anyway, my GTS is fairly well modified with all the usuals and then some. Drop me a line, and you can stop over and take a look. I have an aluminum flywheel as well, but that would not be...

    New Engine Oil Pre-Luber Systems Now Available..

    Sean, for those of us that have the older system, are there any issues that required a re-design? Thanks

    Side splitters from PartsRack!

    OH THATS JUST GREAT!!! Way to go Chris, all that work I did last Summer... smoothing, surface preping, painting, relocating them further inboard and your telling me now I may have them on backwards... PERFECT! Actually I did question the orientation when I first installed them, but like Tony...

    Side splitters from PartsRack!

    Tony, that black really looks great on your car! Those are my bare metal splitters on the blue GTS you have posted. Since then I have moved both sides inboard 1" and I painted and cleared them in the same Viper Blue body color. If your going to bring them in, you do need to notch out the...

    Has anyone made a trim plate around the exhuast tips..more

    I've never see a surround plate for the outlets, just a cover plate that someone made after they relocated the exhaust to the sides. I have a '97 with custom tips on my Borla system, and they probably extend an extra inch and a half, I've never had any spotting at all on the rear end paint...

    Help, Red with Sliver Stripes or Red with White Stripes?

    Please, why are you even thinking about this one...WHITE of course! From what I've read, the last thing your car needs is to be "refined"

    How to install aftermarket springs??

    Yep, Doug's right. When I did the springs on my '97, I looked all over for a compressor tool that would fit the Eibachs, but eventually just ended up grinding the arms down enough to fit between the coils. The end result was well worth the work, but took a lot longer than I expected. Good Luck...

    OK here are the pix of gen lll engine, Thanks Tony

    Nice pics. That yellow Spider was awesome. The Vanquish V12 engine they had on display was also pretty impressive.

    OK here are the pix of gen lll engine, Thanks Tony

    Just got back from the auto show a little while ago. That SRT on display is really taking a beating from the crowds down there. They locked it...in fact the handle "lids" look like they were either removed or broken off. I'm really surprised though that they didn't rope it off. I was also...

    I got my certificate today and placed my order in Black.

    Jim, it's in a plain white envelope 10 x 12" from Dodge headquarters here in Michigan and has your cert. # above your name.

    3.55 gears -gottem put on!

    Norman, you need to use a recalibration box that wires into your underhood PCM area. Not a problem as long as you get the correct dip switch settings for the gear ratio you install.

    Can Someone Tell Me.....

    Where the door handles are on the 2003. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've been looking at the pictures of the car that a dealer sent me and I don't see any buttons, latches, push in handles etc. to open the doors. Surely someone who has seen one up close can answer this... thanks!

    Pictures of New 18" HRE's

    Re: Pictures of New 18\" HRE\'s I just finished my StopTech package and HRE 546 install on my coupe a couple weeks ago. I really like the look of this wheel on the GTS. Can't tell for sure from the picture, but did you change your front rotors too... looks stock from the 1st picture.

    Cat removal??

    I've got SVP's and a Borla cat-back. I removed the cats and made up some test pipe segments right from the start. The sound is louder but in my opinion not over powering. I have hi-flow cats on now, but also believe I lost a good bit of power by putting them on. If you stop at lights (I assume...

    Need Suggestions Please

    Agree with everything Bryan said. Many do drive it daily depending on the climate... conditions here in Michigan require a second snow friendly vehicle. It also might be somewhat questionable in a wet climate, and I think you folks due get a good amount of rain out there.

    What to do first?

    After the K&N's, I did the catback thing with a Snake-Oyl piece that was the same diameter as stock. It's a nice set-up, but you could get it done cheaper as some here have stated. Personally however I would wait and simply pop for a 3" set of headers and catback. I had the Snake-Oyl piece...

    BTR Hi-flow intake

    Tim, this has been discussed in the past here... Some feel that the cone style filters may suffer somewhat in performance because they are not shielded or enclosed, and tend to take in some of the higher temperature air under the hood and behind the radiator, whereas the K&N's in the stock or...

    Why do we have such bad brakes?

    Just a further confirmation that the front Brembo's are pretty descent, but the rears are useless. In fact I think it's somewhat humorous that the stock rear brake caliper now sits on the opposite side of the rotor and acts strictly as the parking brake on my car after installing an aftermarket...

    5th belt through seat cushion installation pic

    Thanks Jay, Janni and others, I guess with the car in Winter storage now would be a good time to send the belts up the road to be converted to 6 points. I assume (make that hope) that they would not require the shoulder pieces that are installed through the bulkheads to make this conversion???

    5th belt through seat cushion installation pic

    Janni, this has no doubt been posted somewhere previously, but it I already have the 5 point TeamTechs installed can I go to a 6 point set-up relatively easy? Cost? etc. Thanks!
