It's that SVX again!
Just spent an hour or more looking through all my old threads regarding the Black Burgundy SVX that regularly parks near my favorite resturuant on Tuesday nights.
Can't believe I've never added the rego! From memory it's...TE-1221 Last week got a photo with my NEW camera (it's only a CANNON A75 PowerShot ) so, here is said picture. My car's the not so glossy one at the rear. Arthur.

I am wracking my brains to try and remember but did it have a fairly sizeable dent in the rear section of the boot (ie, under the rear right light panel?)
If so, I cannot remember his name but we had met up a few times - he lived in Lane Cove area Aggggg....cannot remember!! Good shot though!

White SVX spotted!
Date : Tuesday, 8th February 2005
Time : 8:45 am Location : M2 Motorway, between the Ryde Road entrance and the toll gates. Rego : ADM-09W (that rego sounds familiar - I think I have seen it before somewhere.......!) I had just entered the motorway, when it flew past me! So, I did what had to be done - I chased it! The driver saw me - I made sure of that!!! We even took the same exit off the M2 - at Pennant Hills Road! However, I had a 9 am meeting, so I could not stop and chat to the driver. Jason.

Solid rear disks?
Are those specs correct for your Oz spec cars?
Solid rear disks? My JDM car has ventilated rears. Least I think it does. Needs the pads checked/replaced, I will check this weekend. Joe

I just checked the old rear discs that I kept, when I had them replaced.
They are indeed solid! Therefore, I doubt that a JDM SVX would use ventilated rear discs, as the AUDM SVXs are almost identical to the JDM ones, mechanically. Jason.

I'm solid gone!!!
Yes, that's why I asked the question in the first place. I thought as Oz spec would be RHD like the UK and like Japan, there would be no good reason to degrade the spec for the Oz market.
Wrong, apparently. I just checked both cars. The JDM car has ventilated rear disks, and the UK spec car has ventilated rear disks. Strange the places they decide to save money, is it not? Joe

Although all AU cars came with leather so that may have accounted to the cost/benefit analysis they may have adopted - the target market in OZ would have been far more receptive to leather interiors than ventilated discs
But interesting though!

Or it could be that with your Nazi-like anti speeding laws, they reasoned the brake disks would never get a chance to heat up anyhow!
