Hello My Svx'ers
Hey everybody, new to this forum. Last week bought a 1992 LSL with 59000 miles. Did a lot of reading about the car. What's up with the 0-60 times though seems to be confusing..i hear everythong from 6.3-7.6 ..Anybody whants to explain this?...well allright just intorducing myself. Hope to get some responses...thnaks
P.S- and what CAN i actually burn in a race? |

As for what can be burnt? I guess it would be the big ego. Hehe. Trying my best to be funny here. Yeah. You can actually kill your tranny. The trannies usually die around 60-80k range or they dont till they hit about 150. So... Save up some doe!. L

That is true... but make sure you have nice set of tyres for the snow. Otherwise, SVX with AWD will still do 360 in the middle of the road. I did that twice this year.

first of all hi and welcome to the network, congrats on you buy
secondly, i am one of the few who actually 1/4 mile my car. i only do this because i have a warr on my car and tranny...if i didn't i wouldn't even think about it. i agree with seraph that on the highway, she really opens up...but from a standstill...she is kinda slow. be nice to the car...she weighs almost 4 grand..give her a break... Kelli i like to race mustangs and camaros in the rain....no chance...until they catch ground

The reason you see such a variance in 0-60 times is that there is such a wide variation of SVX's.
FWD SVX's are typically faster than AWD... - HOWEVER - '92 and '93 SVX's tend to be faster than later models (and they were all AWD) I haven't seen a comparison between a '92 AWD and a '94 or '95 FWD... The SVX despite remaining pretty much the same actually had a lot of variation "under the hood" during its production years. Oh... and of course the 0-60 will also change with the right modifications. OTOH I agree with the peanut gallery; the SVX is a highway cruiser and is definitely only a bruiser from 10-100... not from 0-60. Of course, I've cruised for two hours in an SVX at over 100 in complete comfort... a Mustang can make it that fast, but I wouldn't want to keep it there for long! |
