    Can never trust new parts

    Maybe it was an American working in a Mexican shop. :oops: Google search: Each day, hundreds of thousands of people cross both sides of the border legally to work, live, or visit close relatives and friends. In addition, an estimated 1.6 million U.S. citizens live in Mexico and Mexico is the...

    Steve, are you talking about the SRT (5038041AA) for my Gen ll Viper? Just want to be sure.

    Oil Filter Recommendations

    I've always used the OEM Viper oil filter (5037836AB) but I've been having difficulty finding them. When I do, they're running around $25 shipped, which seems overly expensive to me. Can someone recommend an alternate oil filter for Gen ll Vipers?

    Question about coolant change on my 1997 GTS with 16k miles

    When I bought my '02 Viper six years ago, there wasn't much maintenance history. I had all fluids replaced. New plugs and wires too. A billet aluminum power steering bracket and pully added as well. I'm sure you'll hear more from others on this forum. Congrats on the car. Oh, and you should...

    My viper conundrum

    I drive my 02 Viper once or twice weekly, averaging 2500 miles annually. I've had mine for 6 years and used to worry about dings, cracked headlights, windshields, etc. No longer. I drive it and enjoy the ride as often as I can. When on interstates and other highways I'm careful about driving...

    Insurance

    I have Hagerty but not so cheap for me. Perfect driving record, live in a high population area of SC, $60,000 agreed value, my cost is approximately $1300 annually. I do have high coverage...$300,000 for most incidents. Maybe that's why the cost is high in my opinion. Drive a 2002 RT/10.

    Gen 2 vs. Gen 5 GTS

    I have a Gen 2 RT/10. Very comfortable car to drive (yes, a dead pedal would be a welcome addition) and it attracts a lot of attention from others. I know Vipers are difficult to find, but sitting in both, and more importantly, driving both, might help you decide. For me, the raw, basic appeal...

    Insurance Question for the Group:

    ^^^Agree with Reguy. I have an '02 RT/10 with Haggerty with a $60,000 agreed value and between 100,000 and 300,000 coverage depending on issues. I'm at $1400 annually for payments. Location matters (lots of accidents here in Greenville, SC) but I'm still way high compared with the $500 annual...

    Engine Cooling Fan Upgrade?

    Do you track your car or is this for general cooling? Curious. I'm thinking about getting the setup to help with AC.

    Engine Cooling Fan Upgrade?

    Do you need to upgrade any electrical componants or is this a drop in and done?

    Engine Cooling Fan Upgrade?

    Had a mechanic install a new condenser that I purchased from AC Auto Solutions (https://autoacsolutions.com/products/). He wasn't impressed with how it was made. Not being a mechanic I'm not sure exactly what he meant other than he thought it wasn't a "modern" style condenser considering it was...

    smooth tubes

    I have the Roe polished aluminum smooth tubes on my Viper. Here is an interesting article about them but I'm sure it applies to all smooth tubes with the proper bend. https://motoiq.com/project-viper-gts-part-4-baseline-dyno-and-kn-intake-test/3/

    MD New Viper Owner

    Congrats on the Viper! I use Hagerty Insurance with an agreed value. You'll likely get several more recommendations on insurance carriers from others.

    Looking for A/C Condenser 4708206

    Did you install it yet? If so, do you recommend it ? Noticed it doesn't list 2002 but that must be a mistake on their part.
