Well Hello! Gene, Hello! Alice

You folks are very welcome. We have a number of original owners on here, but not a big number. It's good to have you here.

Post pictures. Please.

Hi Tasha.

Nice to see another owner on board.

Most of the owners and cars are in the NE, but don't let that hold you back. I live in a country where no SVXs were sold, I manage.

For advice, if your SVX is your everyday car, then attend to the mechanical things that will make it reliable. Service it. As simple as that.

If it needs bits and pieces, describe what you want and we will try to help.

You are very welcome to the Forum, we're here to help.

Joe

Re: Every member please check in here!

Drjohn here in S. Jersey. Still have my black '97 (100182). Am the original owner and use it as my daily driver and it now has 48,000 miles. Interior is like new and the paint has never been broken. Only problem is that the wheels are beginning to show a few small bubbles and will need repainting soon. Anybody have a good procedure to do this? An estimated cost would be appreciated. By the way, it's not for sale! Thanks to all the administrators for keeping the board up and running. By the way, the Ultimate Subaru.net board has been hacked and has been down for about two weeks. Good luck to all.

If you give us a list of your problems, we will try to help you with it. Your 94 Pearlie is quite rare. There were very few Pearlies produced that year. I would like to get your VIN and production date (located on drivers door frame tag). I would like the number of miles as well. Thanks

Re: Every member please check in here!

Mike here. In Maitland, NSW Australia. I am in the process of getting a new radiator. Getting one custom made, locally using a PWR core.

Then, I need new brakes.

Cheers

Most members who cut off the resonator find that it is very objectionable. You may want to save it so you can put it back on.

First and foremost, you are very welcome!

Next, I'm in agreement with the two guys above; I replaced the resonator with a straight through, the sound was dreadful. A flat blare with very little sound of power off it at all.

It needs the resonator anyway to balance the speed of exiting gases. The resonator is at a nodal point in the exhaust stream. Do like Tom says, replace with another resonator. Use a non Subaru one, if you like, it will be cheaper. So long as it's the correct diameter and in the same place it will do its job.

Re: As we approach 3000 members

Hi, Chas here from CT. I have a Black Mica 94 lsi. Just hit the 100k mark. No "real" mods as of yet. Tinted taillights and low beam hids are the start.




Now for the problem..... recently there has been a intermittent stumble or misfire. Doesnt happen all the time. Sometimes it will shut off at idle, other times the stumble will happen at low rpms. Any suggestions?
