    Engine issue

    looks like its the radiator, not sure how that happened but I guess I will have to get a new one... Anyhow the coolant gauge goes first and then the oil, it takes a few miles of driving for this to happen. The smoke smells kinda like coolant or anti freeze, defiantly not oil or rubber, and...

    cd player stereo issue in SRT

    So after firing up the viper for the first time, I noticed my stereo's CD player doesn't seem to work. I have the standard 2004 6 CD changer stereo- not the GPS in the newer models. AM/FM works fine, but the CD player won't even register when I press mode... the CD player also seems to be...

    Well viper community, I have some bad news... I was involved in not one, but two crashes over the past month... But the good news is I have an interesting story and I get to purchase some new panels, which I needed to replace anyhow, as neither of the accidents were my fault! So before I...

    Viper Hate/Envy

    In my experience, not from entering my viper into shows but from being witness to the results of others doing so, there are a few kinds of shows to avoid if you are looking to win some hardware.... 1. shows that are mostly classic cars - your potential in terms of how many trophies you qualify...

    Viper drive that starts with Attempted Vehicular Manslaughter and ends with Police

    Re: Viper drive that starts with Attempted Vehicular Manslaughter and ends with Polic Some would think like that but given the fact that the videotape was probably used as the primary piece of physical evidence to put this guy away, it is reasonable to believe that we can only experience so...

    final corsa exhaust question before install

    ok... so whats the difference between the replacement for the 3" exhaust (parts number 181-30008 & 181-30007 on the random tech website) and the replacement for 3" exhaust metallic (parts number 141-30017 & 141-30018)? Im assuming the metallic substrate means higher performance- which...

    final corsa exhaust question before install

    So for the last month or so I have been pestering everyone about the Corsa- and I promise this is my final question. I have the 2.5 inch inlet exhaust parts number 14176. I now realize (I think) that this will not bolt up to the RT high flow cats, which unless I am mistaken, require a 3 inch...

    question for white viper (and other car owners)

    So if you have a white car, you know how difficult it is to keep clean. The viper is my second white car, and I will soon be picking up an A8L for the winter, which will also be white. I fell in love with the car, and although it is terrible to keep clean and some people feel white is an 'old...

    What does your forum name mean?

    Well my name is Roy, and Royman was a nickname I picked up from highschool sports that stuck through college. My first vanity plate on my vette (rip) was Royman, and I use it on all my other forums as well.

    Corsa install - wow, loud!

    what about high flow cats? I bought a corsa and have not installed it yet, but I am planning on putting on high flow cats (i think random tech) as I do not want to go catless. Doesnt this take care of the heat issue and have a nice medium for the sound issue as well?

    Youngest Viper Owners Please Reply!!!!

    I just stumbled across this.... did you ever do some video with yuppie racing a few years back? I find it very amusing that we live in the same area, and have the same taste in cars. My first car was a C5 corvette, and I just bought my first Viper a few months ago at the age of 21 as well...

    engine noise! help!!

    Update!!!! So I talked to a friend who listened to the engine with some kind of engine stethoscope... he said there was a possibility I had a stuck valve. He pinpointed the issue to the drivers side of the engine, towards the cockpit rather than the front of the car. He recommended I try this...

    Mercedes UGLY attempt at copying the Viper

    yea that has a little to much character for me. looks like all the bad parts of the sterling moss, z3, and one of those new maseratis. oh and the sls- think of it this way: If it wasn't the latest car since the delorean (i think) to have legitimate roof-hinge gullwing doors, it would probably...
