At least ECUTune (LAN) is getting some credit half way around the world.

The article is fairly basic... not a lot of details... seems the guy didnt do much to the car besides some swap to a manual and the body kit... they do say he did some chip modding... which is I am assuming LANs chip... probably the most interesting part about this article is that the guy is saying he is making a supercharger out of TWO 1G-GZE Toyota Superchargers and the article claims that the car will be hitting 700hp... a bit naive...

I think it's AWESOME. I love the body work. Engine looks crap, but you gotta give the radiator some credit.

Looks like Subaru 4-pots up front.

Probably the most off-the-wall SVX I've ever seen. Amazing bodywork.

Just search for "brembo" and you should get a bunch of info. TomsSVX has tried the swap, didn't work.

It is awesome ECUTune gets a mention in a auto journal over half a world away. It is also good to see the SVX get plenty of attention in the custom tuning see somewhere too.

But why try to make it look like a tuned up Toyota Supra?

thanks chris,

seems were doomed not to have any nice brake set ups, i called, moveit a few days ago for some upgrades they wanted upward of 2,800-3,400 for a fron brake upgrades, thats waayyy to much

something between 800-1100 sounds more reasonable for me

WOW I have to say I'm digging the headlights, but thats about it. Having done a body kit myself I gota give the guy mad props for putting in the time and work. Reguardless of our personal tastes.

Gary

I like it! You have to admire the amount of dedication (and $$) it took to pull off a modification like this. This guy must really love the SVX. The fender flares look badass. Remind me of a 22b.

What is that thing where the AC compressor should be?
