SVX by Phila. Airport
Saw a burgundy SVX on I-95 south by the Phila. airport on Tues. We drove together for awhile than got off and had a 5 minute chat. The fellow has a '96 with 90+K miles on it. He is from suburban Philly (Ridley Township, Delaware County). He did not know about any clubs. I gave him our standard windshield notice and asked him to join up. He said he probably would.

Phila area?
I ran across a fella in Delaware who has a pair of SVX''s, and I initially thought you had run into him. He's an older fella, but he siad it's his girlfriend who drives his SVX. He has it serviced at the Concordville Subaru shop. He said that there was one tech there he trusted, even though it took them several attempts and fuel pump replacements to diagnose a bad fuel pump switch under the back seat.
Anyway, if you're prowling around the Phila/Delco area and see a '93 25th ann. SVX with PA plates and boxes of files in it, please don't stick stuff on the windshield. I'm pretty picky about people sticking stuff on my car. |

We don't stick stuff on the windshields -- we leave a note on the windshield. Chances are if you have a svx.net logo on the car, we will know that you are one of us. I have been leaving notes around chicagoland and pulling over SVXes to let people know. So far I have pulled over 2 and counting

Your equipment
What kind of alternator upgrade do you have? And which lights did you install?

I have chased a few and let them know about this site....and have left a few handwritten notes on windshields.
I agree that it would be good to keep track of how people found this site although if they are from this neck of the woods, their explanation would easily identify how they got here: "I was driving along in my 1995 yellow SVX and I noticed a blue Camry following me. Thinking this quite strange, I decided to gently accelerate and confound me but didn't this lunatic keep with me. Righto said I and floored the accelerator to unleash the powerplant and took off. I spied my foe flashing and beeping like a maniac, in and out of traffic like a NASCAR driver chasing me. A red light prevented me from escaping this loon when, all of a sudden, a hapless girl was (obviously reluctantly) forced out of the passenger seat of the Camry and came to my window, clutching a piece of paper: "I'm sorry" she said "but my obsessed boyfriend wants me to give you this" and hands me the 'Join Us' card with this club's address. "I am so sorry but he is obsessed and he said that he would have come up in person but his 4cyl Camry is ready to explode with his chasing efforts and he needs to watch the temp gauge". This poor young girl then went back to the Camry and it took off, with the driver beeping and waving. Is this what members of this club do?? If so, I am thankful". Yep, this is what happens.....my poor girlfriend! Jamsvx O B S E S S E D

What kind of lights do I have? I got the artic blue 100W headlamps and H3 (fog lights). They fit in the current lights but they are brighter (more wattage) then the OEM bulbs. They are illegal but no one is going to take out a photometer just to check it. They look white/blue ish. That's the best way I can emulate the HIDs until I can buy a HID kit for my car. Lwin

As soon as I start to chase another SVX, normally they piss bolts and disappear. Once I tried to chase one and we did neck to neck on south(east) bound 90/94 (highway) at 110 mph. When the speed limit was at 55 and going twice that with pot holes the size of small countries, I had to slow down. I honked and waved and this guy just acted like he did not hear me (freeking moron). Well, g'day mate Lwin got to pratice my australian.
