[svxistentialist]

My problems here are compounded by the fact that the SVX was never imported here, so the local main dealers know nothing about them, and want to know even less. Also, my car is a Japanese import, so they have a policy of refusing to do any work on those. Stated reason is that the JDM models are different than UK models, and all the information [when and if available] is in Japanese. The real reason is they do not want the competition of people or companies importing their own cars from Japan, so they make it difficult to service them knowing this will affect the resale value.

I will be getting a freelance guy who does a lot of work on imported Imprezas here to do the cambelt, and I am hoping that because of this he will have the tools and the knowhow to manage the pulleys and timing.

Thanks again

Joe
