Re: Top Gear USA

Enjoying the SVX
My wife and I are in Dana Point, CA for a couple of days. I decided we'd bring the SVX on this trip, something we don't usually do (had it for two years, only put about 3500 miles in that time) as it...

Transmission - replaced fluid, got a weird sound
I'm really sorry to post another transmission thread. I've spent the last 30 minutes or so searching, and I give up and I'm just gonna ask.

I shift into gear and it just...dies. Any ideas?
The title kinda says it all. I start up the svx and it sounds great, and then I shift into gear and the engine dies and my dashboard lights up like a christmas tree. Anyone dealt with this before?...

Re: Yokohama S.Drive or Bridgestone RE750?
Went with the S.Drives because they were $37 cheaper per tire, and my friend had a set on his WRX when we drove the crap out of it about a year ago and they rocked.

Perhaps I have overstated it when I say "occasionally" as what I mean is that it might snow once or twice a year. Last year we had the most snow we've had in thirty years, and there was snow on the...
