Maybe I'm very wrong about the whole story but even if we found a variant of the SVX to import to Aus for example the SVX CXW or whatever they call it there, you still need to setup a compliance system thingo that meets the Australia Design Rules to register the car.... So in other words WE'RE STUFFED... dam
Then maybe you ought to check out if they will allow you to import the CXD version.

These were only made/sold in 1991-2, and had the active 4WS system. These are very rare, very special, and may qualify, if you can make a case they will accept.
