http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=30&f=2 You will probably get some advice here from some owners (me included), but the link to the site above is ALL SVX. Will have a better idea of what you are getting into there from a much larger knowledge base. The biggest problem that the early ones had is the 4EAT transmission. If you are sure that its been gone thru or replaced and that the rest of the car looks to be in fair shape, I say get it.

Heh, from that pic it doesnt look to be a very smooth ride either :-p

It might be cheaper in the long run, for one of us to make a run to LA and bring these back up. Or even meet another member half way. I wonder if I could fit 10 transmissions in a Brat?

Ah shoot Gary, I've been rather busy lately and forgot to see if I had those :-\ Sorry about that.

This is what I have and its been working great. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Hallman-Manual-Boost-Controller-Pro-Rx-Black_W0QQitemZ120469284608QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item1c0c876700&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245

Thats what supposed to be in the MBC.

I dont know why they added that tee with the kit, unless its supposed to have the boost gauge connected to it. But I dont understand why the ball&spring for it.

You might end up overboosting. Then you can kiss that EA82T byebye. Ask me how I know Actually, if you have a boost gauge, try it without the TEE completely. If you dont get boost creep, it might be ok without it. But I would use any MBC without keeping a sharp eye on the gauge.

Are you sure they were from a 300ZX? Because thats a V6 with dual feed injectors, which would take alot of modding to make work. I have a set of these....90-93 Mitsubishi Eclipse Fuel Injectors #INP-059 DOHC Pretty much a direct swap and they are 250cc

Gotta love that PNW patina I would say that wagon definitely has more than the standard amount tho.

Did you completely pinch it off, or just somewhat? How do you fine tune something like that?

Someone a couple of months ago found one in a wrecking yard. I dont believe there is anything special about it, probably just something a dealership did. Found the pics...

Got to see this in person today. Lets just say, when this comes to the Show next year (it better), its going to blow lots of people away. I'm really impressed

Jail? Thats the only excuse I can think of for missing it

I havent done much since WCSS11, kind of burned out. But my hood scoop on the RX needed attention, it decided to split in half :-\

The front end of the frame rails where they come up into the engine bay. The top of the rear strut mounts, they like to rust out. Of course, most of the body panel edges will rust out. Try turning the driveshaft 180deg, the reattach.

You need to be a certain breed (of crazy) to mess with XT/XT6's AND SVXi. I fit that bill rather well Oh, if you decide to part it out, dont go to subaru-svx.net and mention that. Just say you have some parts from a wrecked SVX, they wont lynch you then :-p

I assume this is a 3AT? Is so, its most likely the governor. Its the large cylinder on the passenger side of the tranny(you can see it from above). Pull this cap off and you will find the gov. I think its just a couple of bolts to remove, then it pulls out. If the gear at the end looks apple cored, then thats the problem. Its not hard to find another one in the wrecking yards, someone here might even have one. Finally found the link. http://www.indysworld.com/80s/general/USRM/Transmission/Governor/ATgovenorclean.htm

Eggzackery

Thats a rough estimate. It actually feels like 700lbs :-\ I have moved it on the ground by hand, just to get it close enough to the hoist. Its a good thing I'm built like a tank

Well, its a excellent idea. I might just rig something up like that for my Hatch. I had to move a EG33 from the back of my yard the other day and without a concrete driveway it was no fun pushing a engine hoist around with 500lbs swinging from it :-\

$800 for a yard ornament? I only paid $400 for mine

Thats pretty awesome. But what happened to the tractor? :-p

Where did you find all that snow in Cali? I've never heard of Rough and Ready. I'm a former resident of the San Bernadino Mts. Lk Arrowhead/Big Bear.
