The unexpected surprise included with my SVX....
 

As stated in my "We're home!" thread (http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...threadid=22213)

My new SVX came with something I wasn't quite expecting... Was driving through Iowa in the middle of the night and hit my elbow on something sharp on the side of the armrest...

I looked down and saw a switch...

Being the tech geek that I am.. It immediately flashed through my head... "MUST... PUSH... BUTTON!!"

Sooo.. Knowing the car had an ECUTune system and not knowing what it would do if I switched it on/off whilst in motion or even if this switch controlled the ECUtune (Turns out that the switch was never installed...)... We pulled over and flipped the switch... A green LED lit up inside and I didn't notice anything immediately different.. Until I looked out my window... ...and saw this...

(Now, most of you know I'm totally anti-Rice, but I'm very much pro-techie toys and well.. We techs are easily amused by anything that lights up... Soo.. I think I might be keeping them.. :p)

(Pict's a bit shaky because I was cold and tired at the time.. :p)

A beautiful pict of a sculpture taken by Alicia at the rest stop on the Colorado/Nebraska border.

Gah.. Resizing the images as we speak....

Raw Furry Dawg

Okay.. I've seen this term bantered about on the boards.. What precisely does it refer to? :confused:

Hey wulf get a tranny cooler installed in that car whenever u can and it will last u a long time!

Those are awesome pictures 'Wulf!! How very cool!

I have just one question: when you do move to Colorado are you going to become a stuck-up front-ranger and ignore us over here on the good side of the hill? ;)

Thanks, 'Chelle... :D

...and most assuredly not.. ;) I'm sure Alicia and I would love to meet another couple who share the same lifestyle we do.. :D

Huked Up:D

How did you miss those!? Hehe:D

Steve put NERONS on his car? :eek:

:D

Personally, I like em, but I'm a bit biased.. :cool:

Nice surprise. :D LOL

Man... This just keeps getting better and better.. I swear.. Every time I go out to the car, I find some new little tidbit...

I was going through the glove box, looking for my insurance information and noticed a little organizer thing that I hadn't before...

Lo and behold.. In it was a MagLite, a tire pressure gauge, a comb... (:rolleyes: )... ...and this:

That brings the total up to:

1 Carcoon car cover.
1 set of green neon 'street glow'
1 complete set of '92 service manuals
1 '92 owners manual
1 SVX DVD
1 SVX '04 calendar
1 issue of Sports Cars Int'l with the "Top 10 Sports Cars of the 90's" (featuring the SVX)
1 box of various spare parts
1 2x2 painted with the words "Hood Prop" ;)
1 gargantuan 3 ring binder with a TON of information garnered from various SVX sites, service receipts and the ECUtune instructions...

SO basically you have all the things i want. And youve had it less than a week. Ok i hate you.

Thanks
Tom
