Harvey,

Got to Earthworm's site: www.svx-iw.com and click on the 90 page Road & Track feature that he scanned in.

In a section dealing with the design of the car, they talk about the under-tray being longer on JDM/Euro SVXs and these models having a Cd of 0.285 as opposed to 0.290 for the US version.
