Ricer crispies (Snap, Crackle, Pop)
Looks like I've been (somewhat) accused of being anti-ricer. Now just let me make this perfectly murky.
I like my (basically stock - except for the hundreds of "Adopt a Retired Greyhound" stickers ![]() I'm just not gonna do it to my 'baby'. ![]()

Lwin- (EDIT: THIS ISN'T LWIN. HA HA HA OOPS.)
I agree.. to an extent. I think that the SVX's body needs little improvement, but unfortunately for us, the folks over at Subaru didn't do quite as good a job on the drivetrain as they did on the overall design & concept of the car. While I can appreciate the desire to maintain a vehicle to its original form, I think that since we are given the oppurtunity to improve on a good thing, it is to be considered our duty. -Adam Last edited by alacrity024; 03-09-2002 at 12:20 AM. |

you misunderstand
You misunderstand. The body is one of the two truly outstanding components of this car and does not to be modified. I think that aftermarket wheels are the only step that needs to be taken to improve on the car's outward physical appearance.
The SVX's flat-6 is the other aspect of the car which is best left unchanged. IMHO it is a truly wonderful machine and seems to be quite bulletproof if properly maintained. Most other elements of the vehicle could stand some updating. -Adam |

I'm with you on this one. I like having a totally stock SVX. I would eventually like to restore it to better-than-new condition and preserve it forever.
However, I would also like to get a second one and mod the hell out of it. ![]()
