    Gen 2 vs. Gen 5 GTS

    I owned my 2000 Gen 2 for 18 years and I never missed the ABS. I bought it new off the showroom floor at my local Dodge dealer and I never grew tired of the thrill it gave when driving. However, near the end of my ownership, it cost me $1-2K every time I took it out because something was always...

    Honest feedback on this wing choice

    Like others have said, it does not look right on your car. The wing in post #9 looks much better.

    $40K for a low mileage 01 sounds about right. I am hoping to get that much for my 00 Black GTS with less than 5000 miles... :cool:

    Viper Tech in North Houston

    Andy, From my other post, you will see a wobbly power steering pulley seems to be the culprit which caused my belt to come off this time. I also need to get my AC fixed and a few other minor items. Since the car is parked safely in my garage, I will contact you when I am ready to have it...

    Undamaged Serpentine Belt Came Off: Possible Fixes?

    I looked at the power steering pump pulley and it wobbles when you spin it. The pulley is cracked in several places, but it is still on the shaft. Can I just replace the pulley or do I need a new power steering pump, as well? Here are a couple of photos I took of the pulley:

    Undamaged Serpentine Belt Came Off: Possible Fixes?

    Thanks for the suggestions. :cool: It is supposed to warm up to 70+ degrees this weekend in the Houston area, so I will review the rest of the belts path to see if anything is missing or loose. BlackVenom

    Undamaged Serpentine Belt Came Off: Possible Fixes?

    I drove my 2000 GTS last weekend for the first time since I moved into my new house several months ago. When I was returning from a 30 minute drive, I noticed the power steering was really stiff like the last time I lost the belt. Upon further inspection in my garage, the belt was completely...

    Viper Tech in North Houston

    I am looking for a good Viper Tech in North Houston for my Gen 2. I lost the serpentine belt again over the weekend, so I would like to have someone take a look at it to see if any other parts need to be replaced. I live up in Montgomery, so the further north, the better for me. Thanks...

    Viper Tech in North Houston

    All, Can anyone recommend a good Viper Tech in North Houston? Is Tomball Dodge any good these days? My 2000 GTS has a few minor issues which I was hoping to get resolved before the end of the year. Thanks, BlackVenom

    motorcycle for viper lovers

    How do you not burn your legs on that bike? My side sills get hot enough to burn your leg and they are way behind the engine. I could not imagine resting my leg against the headers... :( The Tomahawk looks much safer with its semi enclosed engine and four wheels. BlackVenom

    Oil Drain Plug w/ Heli-Coil on Gen 2?

    OK, that is good to know. Is there any way to tell if this one was from the factory or installed after the fact? The threads in the oil pan look perfect and the threads on the original plug look fine, so I wonder why it was leaking from the plug? If the previous Viper Tech had to put...

    Oil Drain Plug w/ Heli-Coil on Gen 2?

    The viper tech at the second dealership said there was silicone around the drain plug, as well. What is the proper way to fix this problem? Thanks, BV

    Oil Drain Plug w/ Heli-Coil on Gen 2?

    I have a mostly stock 2000 GTS with very low miles and I have owned the car since it was new. When I took it to the dealer to get an oil change, I mentioned the car had been dripping since the last oil change. When they took out the drain plug, a heli-coil and the plug came out together. Is this...

    Gen1 takes first place at Time Attack.

    I like the flames shooting out of the car right in front of you at the end. He must have been really pushing it when he saw you in his rear view mirror... :D BV

    Factory Oil Pan for 2000 Viper

    What is the item in the top of this picture? I do not race the car, so is it something I will need to install? Also, does the 42 vs 44 mean it will not fit my car? BV
