My 92 Subaru svx

I'm new to the whole car scene especially since this is my first car that is able to be in a car crew technically. I am especially very new to forums never used them before so bare with me.

My SVX or as I call it the omen (i'll explain later) is fully loaded with the all leather seats a few rips here and there but its a 92. I also have the sunroof, heated mirrors, am/fm, tape, and cd player. I bought it with 108k on it and now I have about 111k. What I have done to my car so far was added a cold air intake, deleted my a/c belt due to my bearing not working which caused my pulley to spin while my belt was stationary and it burnt rubber everywhere let's just say it wasn't a fun time. And I also put HIDS in which are amazing through projectors. Also I added hood spacers for more air circulation. That's it so far I plan on throwing on some bronze wheels and I really want to get the quick **** kit but afraid because the trannies are horrible in the cars and afraid it wot handle it.

Now to where the nickname the "omen" came from. The very first day I.brought my car home my starter just died asap on me so it sat and I ordered a new one and replaced it all was fine until maybe two weeksater my crank sensors went and yes that's plural so there was that than yet again two-three weeks later my alternator goes and that was fixed new. So my car was out of commission for almost a month due to problems it wasn't fun. But that's why that is my cars nick name.

Other than that Idk what else to say. Hopefully I did good so yea if anyone out there is a helpful person throw some ideas my way. Thanks

Yes. I often wander Harry's while waiting for her.

I'll probably head down to Reading for Staurday only. It's a short drive for me. I commute to Philly daily.
