New kid here in his SVX

[B 4 You]

Hey guys. I'm new here. Not really a stanced car, but it's unique and I love it, and I love seeing how well maintained some of the cars are on here. I'll let some pictures do the rest of the talking. She is a 1992 Subaru SVX LS, 125,XXX miles, daily driven, daily loved. No mods other than my resonator removed. Just trying to keep her running well under a college budget. She is absolutely mint. <3

Last year:







Current:



















This summer I will be painting my STi wheels the classic STi gold, and hopefully removing a tiny patch of rust that winter gave me.

I also have a small business (if you want to call it that) of making custom car shaped soaps. Don't ask me how I got the idea, because I don't know myself. I currently only have molds for SVX shaped soaps, but I have a listing for any type of car out there. If anyone is interested, shoot me a convo on Etsy and we'll see what we can do.

My shop is https://www.etsy.com/shop/CustomCarSoaps

The SVX ones look like this:

yes! please turn this into an incredible build I have been wanting to see something amazing done with one of these. Welcome.

A Subaru SVX?

I don't care if you raise the damn thing, it's going to be 110% awesome no matter what you do with it.

Can't wait to see what you've got lined up next!

Oh, and welcome to StanceWorks!!

Car sucks, get a life.

I was wondering when you would show up. I hope I don't really have to welcome you.. considering you live 3 minutes from me. Scroll through the forum and see what people are doing, you will really like it here.

Maybe somebody will convince you to lower the SVX too.

Also expecting your wife to bake cookies tomorrow.

slam it, make it rwd, find ballin wheels, drift it, win the game

[Nick475]

This has actually been done, I think David could supply a link for it.

Wheels weren't ballin, but that's also been done. There's one on BBS LM's.

Can you please stance this out? I've wanted to see it done since forever!!

[MikeyRa]

I love this, I had one as my first car in high school!


Not mine:

That's the one I was going to post! He just sold it in Australia for I think $10,000? That's probably one of the most expensive SVX's sold in the last 15 years. I absolutely love this car and the positive attention that it comes with wherever I go. I plan to do some engine modifications, possibly a turbo build. Before that, a 5 speed is in order, as these cars never came with them. Honestly, the car runs great. Yeah my struts are shot, but what can one expect from a 21 year old suspension? Leaks oil, but who cares? I will never part with this machine. Are there any other people here with an SVX? I tried to search it, but you can't search 3 letters :[

Edit: Here's the SVX that's been RWD converted and drive-able: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zy5xj1ezDms"]DTR Garage Drift Subaru SVX - YouTube[/ame]

And here's a video I made when we had some good snow: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJLC3u3EJVQ"]SVX Snow Drifting - YouTube[/ame]

Such neat cars, and this one looks like its in pretty good shape. I like the STI BBSes on there. Should look pretty cool gold.

...possible SVX STI? Make it happen. Haha.

[B 4 You]

There are a few people that have done STi suspension swaps. It's a big deal though with lots of fabrication needed. I actually think I may be getting coilovers soon. Anyone ever heard of Ceika? They do custom ones, and a couple people have bought them for the SVX and they now have our dimensions on file. Packages start at only $800!

[Nick475]

nice video! looks like good fun

[ivanfu]

I love these cars, quite rare where I live and I will second the "please stance this SVX!"

[Evil Panda]

Welcome. I always had a soft spot for SVX's.
