Welcome Tokyo-KT! Over in Japan have you seen mostly forced induction projects or naturally aspirated projects from fellow SVX owners?

The owner in Japan who has improved power is very few.

It is a balance adjustment, and ECU,the compression ratio up, Improvement of engine displacement.
Doing is almost the same as the owner of US.

A lot of Japanese owner thinks that good conditions are more important than power.

Ota city, there is a factory of Subaru.

I heard that a lot of SUBARU show cars are preserved in the warehouse.
Parties concerned seem to wash the show car once every year.
It was invited to the carwash ten years or more ago.
However, it refused.
I think that the image of poyo 's site is the one taken a picture of in front of the warehouse.
Mr. poyo seems also to have gotten the image from someone.


The prototype SVX might not be. It might be still.
Sorry, I can't confirm it now. If I have the chance, it asks someone.

Thank you so much for this information!

I now can begin to start my planning to visit to japan! I will see these cars in person even if it takes a few years of planning!

Please ask anyone who may know more. I would love to find out who or when this car wash is scheduled and how to gain access to going. This is a huge dream of mine to see this warehouse. Thank you for the information you have provided, to me it is priceless.


BTW here is an old clip from you tube showing that blue svx on the wangan filming -I too like that SVX, nice wing:

I found a picture of the Subaru Visitor Center in Ota City. Here is the website I found it off of:

http://www.7tune.com/japanese-car-mu...t-you-started/

Is this the same location where the warehouse is located and car wash is held?

Hello everybody.
I am siowulf.
Tokyo-KT is my friend.

I live in Nagoya, Japan.
I bought SVX by the Yahoo auction Japan six years ago.
Since then, I modified my car almost every year.

-Main modification-
5speed conversion
Carbon 2 Plate Clutch
Full adjustable damper
Shock absorber length adjustment system.

-Future modification-
High performance brake kit
Turbo charger

Alcyone Lunacy, Thank you for seeing my video.
Roberuta lifter system is not air suspension.
If the Roberta lifter system doesn't switch on, the cup is fixed.
Therefore, the performance of the suspension is never ruined.

Please do not misunderstand it.

Only the staff is permitted to enter the warehouse. The visitor can't enter it.
Of course, I am not a staff. I don't know staff's person.

It doesn't know whether to be kept still.
It doesn't know whether to wash a car still every year.
It is already things of the past much that I was invited.

Wow!

Really, really beautiful car man.

You are very welcome. :)

I have a supercharger on one of my cars, but I might also add a turbocharger at some stage. [It is a CXD]

NONE of my cars is in as nice condition as your blue car.

Kudos.

Joe :)

Talk about good condition...

Siowulf's blue car is probably the best looking SVX I have ever seen, in pictures or in person.

WOW.

That is the sort of car I want to eventually build, although my SVX is damaged and repaired a bit to much to even end up being that perfect. I want to build something like that from a non-damaged SVX.

I was thinking about a different color of blue, but that looks like World Rally Blue, and it looks AMAZING.

I noticed that the car has a Bilstein badge on the back... is there a Bilstein coil-over, or original replacement damper that fits the SVX? I didn't think there were any. I know that the BL-chassis Legacy has them, and I want to put bilsteins on my Legacy... but I didn't know of any for SVX...

That is truly a beautiful SVX you have there. I really like that you didn't put a spoiler on it. Can you post some pics of your suspension? Oh and Silverspear, thanks for inviting your friends, it's cool seeing SVXs from another corner of the globe. I bet they have folding mirrors and clear blinkers in piles on the garage floor.:D

Tokio-KT,

Please excuse my excitment. I tend to be sarcastic at times. I assumed all of what you say. Again, just knowing of this location is priceless info. I really appreciate it.

It is really nice to talk with some alcyone owners in japan!

siowulf, your alcyone is very nice. Glad to see you on the SVX world network.

I will be asking both of you many questions! Please feel free to do the same.

Thank you. Let's talk happily.

I have the question.
Do you know "SVX S4-2" and "SVX Sporty version"?
I have not seen the back figure. I want to know the design of a rear bumper.
Do you know?

Tokio-KT, just to let you know I am always happy.
Life is too short to be mad. Just checking this thread puts me in a good mood!

Alcyone owners Unite!

I have crazy tendancies at times, thus my user name. Lunacy also represents that my love for alcyone is more than just that, it is like a sickness I do not want to be rid of.

See here for info on the SVX S-42 :http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=50925

This is all I know about this variation of SVX. Will let you know more if I find out.

I'm sorry that the reply is delayed.

The mileage of my SVX is 113000 miles.
Therefore, my SVX has been maintained during about two months within one year.
SVX is improved between those.

The color of my SVX is blue of Skyline GT-R(R34).

Bilstein badge is "Emblem Tune" in Japan. The batch was only pasted.
This suspension was made in the LUCK.
http://www.luck.co.jp/

This suspension is full custom-made that uses parts of the Bilstein.
This shop has received technical guidance in the Bilstein Co. in Germany.
