    Help - - Adding Stripes after the fact - - -Paint or Sticker?

    I just had stripes painted on my car. The shop said he'd have to clear coat the whole car or the edge of the stripes would stand out. Well, it's all clear coated now, but the edge still stands out. He says that will all clean up when he does the color sanding. I hope...

    Really stupid question

    One full size spare for both front and rear !! HAHAHA ! Thats crazy, and probably unsafe ! I carry one of each in the trunk, BUT !! I keep them filled with hot air to reduce weight over the rear axle so that I dont have to realign my headlamps all the time.

    Diablo VT question...

    I can only remember seeing one car that was special enough to make a U-turn and go back to see. And I have seen some very pretty specimens. It was at the Ferrari dealership on Main Steet in Walnut Creek Calif. This would have been about 1989 or so. There was a Lambo Diablo (red). It had...

    HELP! I CANNOT REMOVE MY PASS SEAT....

    Your are sorta correct but, if you remove the cushion first, you can move the seat fore and aft to access the holes in the seat track that were provided for installation/removal of said seat (both sides).

    Quickest Viper..........

    There was a Chrysler sponcered Pro Stock car that was caught running a "GM" block (DREC ?) engine (not legal with a Chrysler body). They have since replaced that engine with a "Chrysler" block. Perhaps it's guilt by association. That same "GM" block is now being worked on to run in the 10k RPM...

    Some advise please

    I didn't think it was him, but I will sure give him a call. Your right about him though, he has helped me out before. Any advise on the wheel alignment ?

    Some advise please

    1. Would like to get my car aligned. I dropped my shop manual off at the best front end shop on the island. He says it's pretty straight forward, except he doesn't have the special tool to measure the ride height. Our local dealership has never even sold a Viper, let alone have a Viper tech...

    Help! Looking at used viper...

    The rain here is very warm, so it does not pose any real problems on a drive. In fact I love the soap dish and towel rack ( JonB $139.95, $625.00 in carbon fiber). Also Viper Wizard, has an OEM snorkel kit that is outstanding !

    ...and, who has the lowest Gen I mileage?

    My car just clicked 18k, I've put about 1000 miles on it since I got it, this done in the few weeks. Yes, a low milage car sounds nice, and certainly would have less wear, but why buy the Mona Liza and hide it in a bank vault ? This car was made to be DRIVEN. And, what a drive it is ! If I...

    RT folks, what's your fastest speed with the top off?

    Re: RT folks, what\'s your fastest speed with the top off? I've yet to get much over 100mph, but the best window/top combo so far has been soft top on, side curtains out, and rear window open. With the rear window up, there is a heck of a lot of air blowing from the back of the cabin up over...

    Driving in rain

    While not intentional, I got caught yesterday in a pretty heavy shower. I already had the soft top on, so I pulled to the side of the road and put in my side curtains, then continued down the road anticipating the flood inside the car I have heard so much about. Not so bad really, but where do...

    5 pt harness

    Just had both seats out of my '94. I found seventy eight cents and a button, but no pocket on the back of either seat. I did find however a small square patch of carpeting that had been removed, and a threaded receptacle positioned directly in front of each seat. Is this for the 5 point safety...

    What do you tell them ??

    Oh well, justanotherViper quirk I guess. I wonder how many others bought their car after renting one ? I didn't, but I seem to hear about it once in a while.

    What do you tell them ??

    I just had a GREAT day cruising today. The Cruise Paradise tour started today with a really nice car show, about 250-300 hot rods and classics from here, the neighbor islands and several from the mainland. But I ran into something that I had never anticipated. I was asked probably 20 times...

    How hard/expensive is it to upgrade the 94 viper with air conditioning?

    If one of you chooses to add A-C, there is a plate on the front of the '94 heater case that needs to be removed so the A-C lines can get to the evaporator core. I am missing that plate. If you do make the change, I would love to buy that cover from you as mine is MIA. Again, the local dealer is...

    JonB, will your custom top accomodate the factory sport bar 5th-wheel hitch that I've heard so much about ?

    Re-training ECU

    How long should it take for the ECU in my '94 to reprogram itself ? The car has been sitting for several months, mostly with the battery disconnected. In 75 miles, I have noticed several changes in the way the car runs. At first the engine wanted to die when approaching a stop light and...

    prime the oil filter?

    On my small block Chevy (302), I always remove the distributor and use an oil pump drive (sawed off distributor) if the engine is new, or has been sitting for an extended time. If it's only been a few days or weeks, I can crank the engine over long enough to build up oil pressure before the...
