Finally got some pictures up.
Alright to those who have asked...I finally got some pictures in my locker
And to those who like to point and laugh....go ahead but just remember everyone here bought this car because it stands out from the rest. I wanted my SVX to stand out from all the other SVX's out there. It's the same principle..im just more liberal. Also as far as the exhaust goes..its not done...im adding a second muffler to give it that Corvette ZO6 look. They wont be sticking out that bad when its done b/c they'll be on either side of the differential. So any comments or criticism welcome.....ideas too! |

I sure hope Aredubjay doesn't see the pics!
Were those 12w0's in the trunk?

You give the same reason for 'modding' you car that I hear from a lot of 'modders' out there: 'I want my car to be more original.' If you guys want your cars to be more original, then why do you all do the same things? Subwoofers in the trunk, paint the same things yellow, aluminum inserts in any openings on the car. I will fully admit it - I cringe when I see the SVX altered. To me it's like saying, 'you know, we should really update Mona Lisa's wardrobe.' But I'm also a creative person, and therefore I understand the desire to embellish and express. So why don't you try something truly original, if that's really what you're going after? Alright, so now I will wait for the endless posts accusing me of 'hatin' on' somebody or telling you guys that you can't do whatever you want to your own car - neither of which are true, by the way. FYI, I noticed in one picture that your front wheels are on backwards. I didn't look for it in the rest of the photos, so maybe you've already fixed it. I just thought you should know.

Daryl-
Don't listen to Stockets, he just has this hangup about mods and all that. Stockets- I think anyone should be able to express their creative thoughts. Daryl's way of doing this is through modifying his car. It really is a form of creative art, and it is a very good thing. You're such a stick in the mud! SHHHEEESHHHH! -Mike PS- I love doing things to make my car unique, and I do it in a different way. This is because I am expressing MY creativeness. |

I never said that anybody, Daryl or whomever, shouldn't be allowed to express themselves. I'm pretty sure I got that across in my first post. So you take it back - because if I'm going to say one thing and then have you contradict it by telling me I said the opposite, then we can't have this conversation. I don't play that game. So take it back. Here, let me put it this way. I was not discouraging Daryl from modifying his car. I was encouraging it. I am a creative person by day and by night. If I'm not creative on a daily basis, I will lose my job. So I am all for creativity, even if it means expressing that creativity on or in the SVX. I don't like it, but, hell, it's your car. Where was I going with this? Oh, yeah. I mean to encourage all of you to be more creative. Don't do the same thing that the kid down the street is doing. Don't take style cues from one car and put them on your own (tail lights from a Toyota or fender vents from a BMW). The SVX stands out because it is an original work. So, if you want your SVX to stand out from other SVXs, then make yours an original work. SHHHEEEEEESSHHHH!

And you're right - tones and inflections are very hard to get across in type. So I apologize for misinterpreting your post. PS Your hands wander in an inappropriate way when you hug.

Actually, I did that quite a while ago. The first design was on my pearlie, with all pipes together instead of grouped in pairs. see http://www.subarusvx.com/images/carp...e/white057.jpg
