OH NOOOOO! Not another one defiled
I hope this is not an emerging trend...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Subar...spagenameZWDVW  I'll never forget my first introduction to bad taste in this area, I had had my 92 pearlie for about 3 months. I was driving on the Baltimore Beltway I-695 towards Glen Burnie when I spotted an SVX in the fast lane. I tried to stay up with him for a bit, but my exit ramp was coming up. I just wanted to get a look at the very intense "Pepto-Bismol Pink" paint job he had. Bright, very shiny and well done, but... /

You would think all that extra weight in fiberglass would affect his performance.
But according to his specs, look what he listed as performance gains for his 5 speed. We just gotta get us one of these trannies. Automatic-230 HP @ 5400 5-speed-540 HP @ 7500 Automatic-228 lbs/ft @ 4400 5-speed- 438 lbs/ft @ 6500 .

Whew!!
I admit he has defiled a beautiful car, but at least he has not put on a godawful spoiler like some on here have. The thing that I am curious about is how he gets 540 HP at 7500 rpm and all of the torque. I don't see where anything has been done to the engine except he states different cams. I think it is a bit of streeeeetccccccchhhhhhh selling.

Minus the windows, it's a bit hard to recognize anymore. I just can't appreciate the effort when it morph's into something else like that. I do like the description of the SVX spec's. though. Think I'll hang on to this in case I ever wanna sell one. Last edited by ShiuludeSVX; 12-28-2005 at 09:16 AM.

wierd that someone who knows that much about the car, and obviously has some ability (Custom fiberglass **** is NOT easy) and background in cars can end up with something so.... ugly.
He probably has 15 grand into that car and it won't get more than 5k... max. EDIT: Okay, so the fiberglass is pretty crappy upon second look... I find the most amusing part of the ad: 5-speed 0 to 60 in 5.2 sec, 0 to 100 in 6.6 sec HAHAH right, like you can get 3600 lbs worth of SVX from 60-100 in 1.4 seconds... Righttt even with 500+ hp that'd be impossible.

With a shorter intake port, a larger plenum, a longer exhaust header primary, and a higher rev limit, this engine is easily capable of making 300hp in a naturally aspirated state. Add a turbo to each bank of the engine, a pair of intercoolers, and lower the compression ratio and you could approach 550+ horsepower on pump gas Hmmmmm. and just where are we supposed to put all of this plumbing into the engine bay without a lot of serious R&D?  .

this guy def. stole all his info from another subaru svx FAQ web site.
Overview for stock conditions The SVX engine is a 3.3 liter flat 6 engine that is virtually bulletproof. Imagine, it has seven (yes, count 'em, seven) main bearings. All supporting a crankshaft that is only slightly longer than three cylinders. The main bearings are supported by a cross-bolted aluminum block. Although no one seems to be racing the SVX, IMHO, this engine has as much performance potential of any six-cylinder engine of a similar size that is currently available. The rods and crankshaft are forged steel and the pistons are forged aluminum. With a shorter intake port, a larger plenum, a longer exhaust header primary, and a higher rev limit, this engine is easily capable of making 300hp in a naturally aspirated state. Add a turbo to each bank of the engine, a pair of intercoolers, and lower the compression ratio and you could approach 550+ horsepower on pump gas. http://my.voyager.net/~tmclane/#_Toc482082579 and i doubt this car has anywhere close to 540hp.

It's funny.... if one were to trap at 100mph in the 1/4 mile they would run around a 13.5. So he is claiming his car will hit 100mph in 6.6 seconds eh?? Get ready to feel the g's in this monster...hahahahaha
