unbelievable story.....
So im driving along on this SVX last night, taking a nice stroll since i worked all day and no one else is on spring break. Im headed back on university from the capital area, and i see some car barreling up around traffic behind me. "oh great, a ricer" But no, im wrong. Its an SVX! Im super pumped and after giving the thumbs up roll my window down and ask him to pull over to chat. So i get out of my car, at this point getting cocky thinking, "just wait till he sees the 5spd!!" and tell him to look where the shifter goes. He tells me to do the same. HE HAD A FIVE SPEED TOO!!!!!! It was unbelievable. I think we just had the first 5psd meet too. So there are now 2 five speed SVX's rolling around the MAdison area. ITs a black 94 with an 00 tranny and 3.96's. He also had an ACT clutch. He had a vibration issue, and we both took each other for a stroll but i couldnt pinpoint his. He had the same vibration at 40 miles an hour just cruising that Autotchr has. I am almost not convinced its due to the trans mount flopping all over the place. He's gonna try the STi mount and see what that does so ill keep you guys posted. Wow, what are the odds?
P.S. Lwin and Doug drove up to pick up my old diff, so i think i got my fair share of SVX's for the weekend. Time to put her away for a while i think phil

After I dropped off Doug, as I pull back on the highway, 3 cars ahead was me had a pair of quad tail lights you can not miss. It was a 92 Greenie. I tried to pull behind him but lost it since I had a moronic truck driver infront of me.
