I just got a silver set of those rims. How exactly did you get the center caps to say svx? They look fantastic, btw. The whole car does.

Re: Pic of my SVX in article

Great article. Glad the "Cult" is alive and well.

I was surprised to see this quote from Tony.

Quote:
It is when your eyes fall to the centre console that you become completely sold on the fact that this Subie has what it takes to tackle the Oodnadatta track. “That is an STi six speed manual complete with the Driver Controlled Centre Differential (DCCD). The standard auto is fine for the road, though you want to run a transmission cooler. The manual gives me more driving options, and boy do those STi boys build them tough,” he laughs.
Is the installation including the DCCD documented anywhere here?

Re: Pic of my SVX in article

Hey Nevin

The article was written by Adam who does freelance journalism about cars. He was writing the article for the Australian Classic Car Magazine but unfortunately there was a change in editor and it fell through. Adam is editor in chief of the Lautista website.

Not certain as to why he chose to write on the SVX. Leave a comment on the Lautista site. I am sure he will reply.

Cheers

Colin

I got the idea on the centre caps from one of the other guys on here. He did a great job with his caps.

I used a dremil tool to remove the Subaru wording and then filled them and sprayed them. I then had a guy from the US to send me out some SVX stickers. These have now been on for over 12 months and still look new.

Cheers
