    Short introduction...... a few pics as well

    Nice cars, house and scenery. But Lady Liberty looks a little out of place. :dunno: Also, glad to see your dad owns the guts of a Viper. :2tu:

    Winter Hibernation - Does EVERYONE do it?

    Global warming = drive all year. Here in the NYC metro area, we get about 3 storms and a few days later, it's back to cold and sunny and the roads are clear. So I don't winterize any more. I drive it all year round.

    Tator's Dodge Tech Session Oct. 13th

    Rain will make a good excuse for my (always) dirty car. OTOH, my rears are bald and getting very skittish in the wet.

    Who’s MAKING more HP than the 08 Viper now?

    That's so sad! I feel your loss. :lmao: But on the positive side, you could buy the '08 coupe AND convertible in EVERY color and still have a few hundred K's left over. :2tu:

    Found This in My Tire

    I doubt somebody did that deliberately. It would be VERY HARD to do that manually. Maybe stood it up behind the car. BTW, it your tires have usable tread, that should plug up really well. There's no need to go buy replacement tires. I've had a plugged tire for many thousand miles now.

    Storing the Viper for winter

    I think winterizing is overrated. While we feel pressured to do it, modern cars don't need it anymore. I wouldn't bother beyond filling the fuel tank (to prevent condensation) and adding Stabil (to keep the fuel good). Also, I used to move the car 6 inches forward/backward every 15 days or so to...

    Pulling the front bumper cover.

    I forgot to add that those 2 pins in front of the headlight can be accessed from the fog light access hole in the front fender well. Good luck! Here's an internet link I came across. http://www.wclco.com/pdf/plastics/010.pdf

    Pulling the front bumper cover.

    Do not reuse the plastic push pins/trees/whatever? Take a pair of used ones to your local body shop supplier (look in the yellow pages) and get a box of 10/20/50. It works out cheaper in the long run. The 2 pins near the headlight can be pushed in just fine. They don't require headlight removal.

    Anyone pulling a trailer with their Viper?

    1997 GTS Alarm Reset

    That's scary. I wasn't aware of that. In that case, I agree with your opinion. Could you pm me this method?

    1997 GTS Alarm Reset

    My point is simple. You need a key fob to reset the alarm. And that's the property of the owner, not the thief. So where is the conflict?

    Alarm System Useage/ 1997/ Help!

    First get a functional key fob. Without it, opening any lock (driver, passenger, hood, hatch) will activate the alarm. To the best of my knowledge, the alarm on the 1997 GTS cannot be reset without a key fob.

    1997 GTS Alarm Reset

    What's the big secret? The technique was first published in 1997/1998 as part of a Chrysler TSB. I first published it about an year or 2 later but those archives are since history. If I recall correctly, it was specific to the 1997 GTS. It was mailed by the New England VCA to all it's members at...

    It's funny how quickly Vipers change hands

    A lot of drivers buy the car, new or used, then lose control and blame the "unrefined" power delivery of the Viper for it. :lmao: It scares the heck out of them and they put it back on the market. :dunno: I don't blame them since in the GTS it makes over 350 ft-lbs of torque at around 1500 rpm.

    08 Style Carbon Fiber Hood,

    I don't mean to sound negative but in the past, the Viper hood has been a source of grief to many owners. Usually that's been with the Gen I/II crowd. But has this hood been test fitted and checked for fit and gaps in comparison with the OEM hood. BTW, great work. And a reasonable list...

    Resistant Check Engine Light

    Just get a rich man's code reader that can erase codes. Bon chance.

    Custom Hood Design: Need Feedback

    Ka-ching! You just hit the jackpot. I think it's a fantastic idea. The Gen I hood is a little bland when compared to the Gen II/III/IV. Just the fact that those annoying hood speakers have been deleted is a winner.

    First gear lock out

    And not to mention blowing the engine. I've almost never had an incorrect shift but that could be due to my lame driving pace. The few times when I feel I've shifted incorrectly, usually in winter while the tranny is still cold, I just don't release the clutch and do a second verification...
