Got mine in March of 1997. Was a present to myself when I moved up into management with Domino's and got my first bonus check. Bought my 1992 from a Chevrolet dealer that was having a hard time selling it because it was trashed. None of their mechanics would work on it. Its been a long road since, but loved every minute of it. Stole it for cheap. Every potential test drive it went on, it came back smoking because of serious oil leaks, the struts were bad, the brakes squeeled, the tires were bald, the engine had computer codes listed, and I had the ace in the hole. After negotiations over a period of three weeks, got it cheap and put even less down in order to have cash up front to fix it. This started my love/hate realtionship with Chris Debban. Previous owner was a contruction designer and drove it work sites. We all know how rough that can be. Four struts, new brakes (all the way around), new tires, 60K service with T-belt, new oil pump gasket, new valvecover gaskets, and lots of TLC has given me my joy. She gets her new windshield this spring! I wont even mention the "T" word through.

Thanks. Actually have been a Subaru fan for some years and have owned a total of 9 counting the SVXs. Also have a Forester now-wife's. But.........SVXs are not typical Subs other than long lasting engines.
Have been enjoying comments on here. Also, have put my name on the Stebro exhaust list. |
