    replacement radiator alternatives?

    I have been running the X2 Builders radiator for the past four years with no problems.

    94 Viper starts, dies, but then starts and runs great

    When I had this issue it was the security system. The security system in a Gen 1 isn't a hard cutoff, it lets it run for a few seconds and then shuts off. I had to replace the control module, and it was fine after that.

    Mouse nest in engine :-(

    Adding a note in case anyone is interested- there are metal cross-braces in between the cylinder banks, each about 2" high, that will trap water in there if you try and flush it out with water. My aforementioned shop-vac hack worked well to get most of it, then the compressed air hose at the...

    Starter turning over but won't start.

    When you say doesn't start, does it run for a few seconds and then shut off?

    Mouse nest in engine :-(

    Ended up attaching a paper towel roll tube to the end of my shop vac. The cardboard tube was stiff enough to hold its shape, yet pliable enough to get in between the manifold pipes. She's all clean now, and will get a checkup at the mechanic to make sure no rubber was nibbled.

    Mouse nest in engine :-(

    Well for the first time in over a decade of winter storage, a mouse (or several) got past my defenses and set up shop in my engine ('94). The area in between my cylinder banks is now chock full of stuff (mostly acorn husks) and the giveaway droppings on either side. It's about 2" deep the...

While I very much appreciate your long time contributions to the community, if every thread on this board was solved by a phone call and the actual solution not shared, well, that's...

    1993 #/$ Alarm

    I had alarm problems with my '94, dealer replaced the control unit and everything was fine after that. Would someone mind sharing what the wisdom Steve imparted was?

    Last question, did you get new hoses as well?

    GENI & II OEM "like" Radiator Replacement Option

    Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like X2 has worked out their kinks to the point of being viable so I will give them a try. Is your upper close comfortably clear of the hinge? Did your original fan work?

    Gen 1 Alarm Problem.

    Mine was acting up like this, eventually it would refuse to start even after unlocking with the FOB. Ended up needing a new control unit, that was 10 years ago and haven't had a problem since.

    Tires??? Where can I find Pilot Super Sports?

    The R888s are for dry warm weather only. While they do just qualify as street legal, they are designed to be a track tire. That said, I am running them because I only drive my car on warm dry days.

    GENI & II OEM "like" Radiator Replacement Option

    Alright so I unfortunately find myself in need of a new radiator for my Gen 1. Reading through this whole thread, it seems like no one is really happy with their X2, aluminum replacements are expensive and have their own issues... I also don't know of any good radiator shops around here...

    Any interest in OE Michelin's for Gen 1 and 2 (17 & 18in)?

    GODDAMMIT. I just bought the Toyos because they were the closest thing to a street tire that TireRack listed for Gen 2 18" Vipers. Would have much rather had the BFG Rivals for the same money.

    Any interest in OE Michelin's for Gen 1 and 2 (17 & 18in)?

    Note that the Toyo Proxes R888 do meet DOT requirements, therefore they are a street legal tire. They just don't recommend them for other than warm sunny dry days.

    Trying again now that it's nicer out: Looking for set of ViperMania windows

    MTGTS, thanks for the heads up on the ebay auction. I won it so we will see how they look. The auction said he accepts returns, so if they are too beat up I'll send them back. JDEFT1, thanks for the heads up- I will be in touch if the ones from ebay don't work out.

    Trying again now that it's nicer out: Looking for set of ViperMania windows

    Due to an unfortunate accident, my set of ViperMania windows is no longer in my possession. They are also no longer manufactured so I can't buy them new. Looking to replace them; if you or anyone else has a line on a set, please let me know. Thanks

    Alarm Set Light on Continuously - Car Still Operates

    I had similar issues with my 94 when I got it. Also the security system would arm itself and not be disarmed by the fob (car would just start and then immediately cut off), leaving me stranded once or twice. Anyway, replaced the whole computer module and haven't had any problems since.

    Hey "wah it's not 700 hp" folks- learn a lesson from the digital camera world

    Thank you for highlighting the exact insecurity that most people who are fixated on Horsepower comparisons seem to have. :rolaugh:

    If SRT really listened to what we wanted....

    Cool, we'll go back to doing it the old way then, which resulted in sales dwindling to a record low of under 400 cars in 2010.

    Hey "wah it's not 700 hp" folks- learn a lesson from the digital camera world

    In the early days of digital camera sales, the resolution capabilities of the first consumer models was far below that of 35mm film, and well below what you needed to even make a good 4x6 print. Slowly but surely, the imaging sensors improved, and 1 megapixel cameras gave way to two megapixels...

    Weird thing my alarm did today, looking for opinions

    My Gen I had some alarm issues when I got it. Needed a new control module (ordered from Tator) and no problems since.
