At this point I would say that the STI front knuckle could be used with a custom ball joint adapter. Not sure about the rear, I haven't looked at the rear knuckle to see if it's compatible with out rear suspension links. To use the STI front knuckle you would have to use the STI Brembos and a wheel the right size to fit over those brakes. To fit into the SVX strut tower you would need to either do some cutting and drilling of the SVX body, or put the SVX top mount on the strut.
