    Anyone else missing fasteners on splash guard?

    I just happened to notice on my '03 that the front splash guards on BOTH sides are only held on by one fastener (plastic push pin). Look in your wheel wells and tell me if you guys have all 3 fasteners on your splash guards. It just so happens that both of mine are held on by the innermost...

    New oil filter brought oil pressure way up!

    I recently changed the oil in my '03 and replaced the Mopar filter with the new Mopar performance one (the one with Viper logo on it). Now the oil pressure is almost always around 75-80 psi. Is that too high? I know oil pressure is good and all.....but.....does too HIGH an oil pressure put...

    Pics of my completed mods list - finally

    Sweet!!! I have a black '03 and my new Six-spoke wheels with Kumhos will be here first thing in the morning! And wouldn't you know it, but I bought the Vipair hood a couple of days ago as well. Our cars will be twins soon. What kind of finish work did the hood need prior to painting???

    Vinyl Stripes...Wax...Longevity...Color Matching

    I used metallic graphite stripes on my '98 silver GTS and waxed them just like the rest of the car. I just made sure to not let the wax build up too deep along the edges. I couldn't find a good match for the factory blue stripes, so went with graphite........and I love it! The brand of vinyl...

    The DVD is here!

    What's the status of the DVD??? It was advertised like a hot item, including a free DVD for those who jumped on it. Now........... what? I'm sure it'll be worth the wait, so don't get the wrong idea - I was just too excited to get it I guess.

    Two things I noticed about the SRT today...

    I decided to change the oil today before putting the '03 away for the winter (for the most part). I owned an RT/10 and then a GTS before my gen 3. Is it common for the gen 3 valvetrain to sound like a sewing machine under the hood? At idle I can hear the valvetrain ticking and clicking...

    SCT Flash Programmer & Pro-Racer Software Special!

    Dan, thanks for your patience and time in dealing with all the questions. I had a VEC2 on my last car (GTS), now I'm thinking about the SCT on my '03 Viper. What will the ProRacer software do for me? I saw somewhere that there's another piece of software called PMSCAN (I think)....... I know the...

    SCT Flash Programmer & Pro-Racer Software Special!

    Does it come with a generic tune at all, or is it up to the customer to create their own tunes (or a tuner of course)? Generally speaking, how much HP/TQ could a guy expect on a STOCK '03 Viper? The wife will want to know.....he he

    Anyone know this car?

    Check out the sport bar. Looks like it's been a rental and the top has been sloppily put on and off many times. Looks like it's been ridden hard, but still not a bad deal for that price...? Oh, and no ashtray, no cigarette lighter....

    Does ANYONE need a new or used part?

    Ha......I called JonB yesterday after 4:00 pm and ordered a gen 3 Evolution car cover. It showed up at my door at 10:00 am this morning. How in the hell is that possible?????? 18 hours after the order was placed I had a 4-layer cover on my car. And by the way - I'm very pleased with the...

    Silver with stripes? Carbon fiber?

    Might look kind of funky having the stripes on the hood being real CF, but the stripes on the trunklid painted another color....just my $.02 Any pics of folks leaving their CF hood exposed? I bet it's not as "ricer" as we may think. On a dark car such as black or graphite, it might look...

    Shift knob removal???

    The one in the pic is the one I just installed last week on my '03 and I love it!!! It's from MGW of course, but gives much better feel over the stock one. Worth every penny!!!

    Silver with stripes? Carbon fiber?

    I was having the same dilemma about my black vert...........but I like the look of carbon fiber on black cars. Yeah, it's a little ricey.........but carbon fiber looks so sweet I'd hate to cover it up!

    How to delete photos in my gallery...

    I've occasionally used my gallery to host a pic for something unrelated. (:nono:) I know, I know... But i'd like to be able to delete photos from my gallery as easily as I put them there. Anyone know how to delete the photos I've already uploaded???

    Hood speaker grilles - gloss or satin paint?

    Same on my '98 GTS. Had them powdercoated silver to match the car. Very durable finish and looks great!

    SVS in Gran Turismo 5?

    I downloaded the prologue from the Playstation store and there was lots of Viper footage. You GTS folks will be happy to learn there were numerous appearances by striped Gen 2's. It was a short prologue (teaser) and more will probably come out in Feb. like was said above. No idea yet what the...

    Free VOI9 lunch bags (one pair).....

    I know, wrong forum but I need to get these cool VOI9 lunch bags out of the closet. I'd hate to take them to Goodwill if any fellow Viper owners want them. Just flip me $10 to cover shipping and they're yours. I don't have any pics and NO, they aren't paper sacks. They're the blue cloth...

    1998 Viper new owner need advice

    YES. Even with a salvage title, that's a good deal. As long as it doesn't need any significant work such as body panels, frame straightened, or new motor/trans. Look here in the classifieds and on ebay. I doubt you'll find another '98 for anywhere near 30k, let alone under 30. Good luck!

    Hope I can sleep tonight

    Ooooohhhh, that's purdy. One of the best looking wheels ever! My favorite color too, but would be a PITA to keep clean (like black). Would look bitchin' with silver stripes too. VERY nice car - good luck!

    What mod did you LUST after...and when you finally got it....well...it just SUCKED!

    Re: What mod did you LUST after...and when you finally got it....well...it just SUCKE I got a set of chrome emblems from R&D and loved them - spendy but good. Just make sure you remove wax on car before applying - no problems here. Another impulse buy was the louvered side sill vents from...

    Danica Patrick drives the 2008 Dodge Viper

    Those are the same two conclusions I made by the end of the interview! If the '08's are anything like the earlier gen's, 5th and 6th gear are overdrives. 4th gear should have taken her all the way to 130 mph+ ?? What the hell was she doing in 5th & 6th gears in a mock "race"????
