Buy a 4X4 for a thousand bucks to wreck. The SVX will never be any good at anything more extreme than dirt roads, and you won't be wrecking a rare and beautiful sports car.
Did you not read my post? That dirt road was directly off a main paved road. We were out doing falconry activities and wanted to get to a higher vantage point. These are the things I do on my weekends, and the subi is great at getting me where I like to go. If you look in my sig, I have a lifted Jeep for when I really want to go off road. If you think me taking my svx on some dirt roads is "wrecking a rare car" you've got some living to do in yours .

I can build you a set of coilovers that will lift the car. Just tell me how high you want the center of the wheel to be from the lip of the fender. BTW the springs rates are usually pretty stiff so I would reccomend somewhere around 225 for the fronts and about 200 rear

Now that sounds like an idea! Only, how much does a set of custom coilovers cost.....

That looks like some intersections around here, except here it's cement not dirt.
As I suggested and Tom is offering to make for you, the ground controls would be a nice option for you. The adjustablility (i promise it is a real word) is fun and handy.
