    Viper in College Station

    My wife and I both went there, also. Met in our last year and then decided to get married. Never have had my Viper back to College Station - yet.

    600 Hp plus is coming from Dodge soon

    Re: 600 Hp plus is coming from Dodge soon Supercharger, hmmm. You know Sean did make that post a while ago in which he got inadvertently copied on a private DC email concerning this topic. Now why would he be in someones email group unless he was involved somehow?

    VOI 9 ..... LAS VEGAS! Sept. 24th -28th 2006

    Everyone knows it is not a kids event. It is just the logistics of managing the kids (if both parents would like to attend) is a lot tougher when school is in session. Harder to ship them off to grandparents, harder to get someone else to manage the school routine, etc. Not impossible, just a...

    Why not a V1 remote signal unit?

    I could see someone making a Bluetooth remote. Should be pretty simple.

    srt's ARE PHOTOGENIC

    Re: srt\'s ARE PHOTOGENIC Here we go again... I have both a RT/10 and an SRT/10. Love them both. I also have a daughter and a son. Both completely different from each other. Love them both. It is possible you know.

    Partsrack customer service rude.

    Jon, I've got an idea. Why don't you open PartsRack Supreme, staff it with very polite people who will answer the phone, massage everyone's ego and then charge them 20% over your prices for the same parts you would sell them. That way people will have a choice: they can pay extra for all the...

    Ariel Atom vs. my Viper (pics). The better track car?

    I watched this video last week and it almost makes you want to just go out and buy it on the spot. http://www.ariel.us.com/04/topgear.htm

    Sirius Radio an option on the SRT Coupe?

    If it would be offered as a factory option, I would think it would have to be Sirius, since that is who DC has selected as their satellite radio supplier. If you go your own route with an aux input, then it is up to you. I have heard about people modding factory head units to add an aux input...

    Window switch question. Can it be modded to RAISE the window with one touc

    I would imagine that the whole power window mechanism and controller would have to change. They require a stop or reversing mechanism for safety reasons if the window detects an obstruction. Maybe there is a close match from an existing DC car that would drop in with little mods, but I would be...

    Has anyone ever had damage from Reliable car carrier co. ?

    I shipped my car using them to Nashville. Trouble is the day they unloaded the car it was pouring rain, and you have to inspect the car at that time. There turned out to be some scratches in the front fender that looked like tie-down straps had rubbed, which I did not notice when the car was...

    Removal of Hardtop on RT/10

    Just make sure when you reinstall the hardtop that you engage the latches completely. Every once in a while you hear a story of someone who didn't - with disasterous results.

    Removal of Hardtop on RT/10

    You are talking about turning the latches which are right above the visors? If so, my "Roof Removal Tool" was nothing more that a hex key wrench.

    TX Front Plate Law

    I would hope the transponder law would not pass also, but I was just trying to get any more facts on the bill status. Just the fact that it is introduced is something to consider - it may not pass this time, but I have got to believe something like it is just a matter of time. ANPRS, Automatic...

    TX Front Plate Law

    I agree, but you know with all technology already there, it had to happen. Pretty much an extension of the TollTag hardware technology. Next, they put sensors along the interstates and they can track cars automatically. So, maybe soon we will not even need any license plates at all, much less...

    TX Front Plate Law

    So this is a done deal? Not meaning to hijack, but since we are talking about Texas DOT bills pending - does anybody know the status of this one (which I regard as a lot more of a issue than a front license plate law): http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/03/308.asp

    Curb and Wheel Rim Collided

    I had a rim repaired at a place called Wheel Technologies in Dallas. After the repair, you can definitely tell the difference, the repaired wheel does not have the reflectivity of the factory rims. Of course, after they were done, they mentioned the fact that they can't get the clear powdercoat...

    Brake fluid recommendation?

    Since you don't (or rarely) track your car, seems like Valvoline SynPower (500 degree dry, 340 degree wet boiling points) would be a good choice. Not as high wet/dry boiling points as Motul 600, Castrol SRF, but you don't have the water absorption issue and won't have to constantly change your...

    99 versus 2000 cam

    This thread has really moved topic from the start. I don't think the intention was to argue cast versus forged pistons. I have a 2000 RT/10 and when I had my heads reworked (Jeff Morys), I swapped the stock 2000 cam for the 708 cam. I Didn't want to go too radical on the cam, so I opted for the...

    Underdrive Crank Pulley Results.

    Underdrive pulleys should not have any effect on the SRT10 water pump since it is driven by hydraulics from the power steering pump - that is unless PS pump pressure drops too low.

    Underdrive Crank Pulley Results.

    Did the pulley swap require a shorter belt or did the tensioner take up the slack?

    Come on in... The water is nice.....

    It is funny that Osamu Shikado's name seems to pop up when people want to bash the SRT/10. In fact, the first Gen 3 coupe prototype design, called the GTS/R was by him (2000 NAIS show) - the one that so many people WISH that DC had taken to production and looks very similar to the Comp Coupe...

    OK, who knows? Drilled/slotted rotors. What direction do they go on?

    I just installed my EBC (slotted,dimpled) and they had right and left stamped on the rotors. They installed as in the black viper. I guess it depends on the manufacturer.

    PRICES.. GTS's... will the SRTs drop below?

    Re: PRICES.. GTS\'s... will the SRTs drop below? Visual appeal is such a subjective thing, and argue all you want you will not change what appeals to our senses. Imagine doing the same thing about peoples wives or girlfriends. We like what we like and it is those things we pursue. Those that...
