    Hurst Shifter in the GTS - Before and After Measurements - Photos

    I recently had the transmission out of the car. I had a dead slave cylinder on the clutch. When I did the work, I took advantage and swapped out the shifter. Since that has a ton of write ups and I did with the trans out of the car, I did not photograph it and document it. I did, however, get...

    IPod with the Stock Alpine head unit on GTS

    Once the power is wired the rest is academic. You simply tidy up the wires and drop the unit in under the radio. This is the unit used. The unit tucked in under the radio bracket. If I had designed it, I would not have gotten a better fit! I place some high adhesion doubled faced tape on the...

    IPod with the Stock Alpine head unit on GTS

    So I've had the GTS for about 8 or 9 months now. I've loved every minute. I've even put up with only having a CD player in there. I even burned a few CD's and deal with swapping them for drives... However...let's face it, it's 2013... I need an iPod connection! :rolaugh: I've done some...

    Differential oil change...

    Yeah it is a little "difficult". A little moving around at first to figure out the best angle for the hose and bottle.

    Gen I/II Engine Compartment Billet Dress-Up

    On Billet Tech, they've been supplying parts for the LX Mopars (Charger, Challenger, 300) and other cars. They are in West Palm Beach, FL. They make some real good stuff. I have replacement caps, oil dipstick tops and catch can. Quality work. What are you all looking for? I'm getting some parts...

    battery

    I just had to replace mine. I went with the Sears Advanced Gold AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) battery. If I recall it is a group 78 battery. You have to be certain it does not have top post (cannot be a "universal/double post" either). The posts will hit the chassis and short. It can only have front...

    Confused Newbie deciding between 2001 GTS ACR and 1996 GTS ...Man this is tough!!!

    Re: Confused Newbie deciding between 2001 GTS ACR and 1996 GTS ...Man this is tough!! In my opinion, I feel the ACR is too high. If you can negotiate down a bit, perhaps it's worth it. The 8k mile car is awesome. Can't beat the price. As was mentioned $11K is a big difference in price...

    Sound deadening or barrier... Exhaust drone and noise control.

    Did not want to alter the lines of the car. I wanted the sound similar to the side pipes. Side pipe vipers have the sill mufflers with no secondary cans like we have in the rear exhaust cars. Without going to the side pipes, eliminating the rear can would get me close.

    Sound deadening or barrier... Exhaust drone and noise control.

    ;) You guys are complicating this way too much... My goal was to get a similar sound to side pipes. However, since the 2002 GTS runs the exhaust to the rear, the exhaust creates a drone in the cabin. There is a drone... It is not stopping me from driving the car... Don't want a Corsa...

    Eibach Springs Lowering a 2002 Viper GTS

    Actually the front did come down a bit more, about 1/4 of an inch further. I expected that... the rear, however, dropped less. The front and rear rates are different so this is expected. Overall, now, after about a month installed and a hundred or so miles driven, I saw an overall of a bit over...

    Adjusting the door on a GTS - Photos and what I did

    I am sorry to hear the trouble you are having. If it helps, there was some trial and error. It was 6 to 8 times before I got it right. Based on what you are telling me... I would try to "pivot" on another bolt on the hinge. It may give you a "finer" adjustment. Make sense? Perhaps that will do...

    VCA members? Three Vipers I just saw in Davie Florida

    Here's a shot of the silver one at another show.... I understand that there are different tastes in this world. These are definitely not my cup of tea, but wanted to see if anybody knew them or the car. Badged as an ACR (as is the yellow one in the video) but I cannot say it is. They...

    VCA members? Three Vipers I just saw in Davie Florida

    Was at a local weekly cruise in auto show today in Davie Florida. Known by the common name of "Tower Shops Show". I saw these same three cars there. Anybody know these cars? VCA members? You can check out the cars here... http://youtu.be/QJ_kJlaKj8M

    Sound deadening or barrier... Exhaust drone and noise control.

    Love the Corsa systems. Have one in the Charger. Great for cruising. Quiet with no drone when normally driven and louder on full throttle. Great for the Charger and the way I use it. Like the "sleeper" mindset with the black 4 door sedan. However, the Viper is far from a sleeper car. A bit...

    Sound deadening or barrier... Exhaust drone and noise control.

    OK... so now I am confused... Isn't the Dynamat the mass loaded vinyl? I know that does the vibrations... but wouldn't the closed cell foam handle the attenuation of the sound? If that is the case.... how thick? 1/8"? Thicker?
