Hi, I'm Gabe from Michigan, currently in the army in killeen, texas. And right now I'm deployed to iraq (dreaming of driving naturally).

I have a claret 92 LS-L and love taking care of it myself. I'm unsure whether to go for the supercharger that I'm sure everyone knows about, or to keep it stock. I really love the car's reliability and don't want to do anything to jeapordize that.

Subaru GL '88 (first car at 15, died before I even had the chance to legally drive it)
Subaru Loyale '90 (totaled by a old lady, turning into a 4 wheelin' machine)
Mazda Rx-7 '90 (yes, they are as unreliable as they say)
Subaru Svx '92 (yup, I turned back to the good side!)

Looking forward to the 15th anniversary meet!

Myself, I like them stock when it comes to the engine. Other mods are ok, but I don't want to mess up the engine either. They are a great engine and fairly bullet proof. Welcome to the site and thank you for serving our Great Country.

Long time no see...

Hey Guys! I am Nik, or Nikita Petrov with Red 94LSi. Haven't visited this website for a long time. Currently i still own my car, but unfortunately it is not with me. My mom drives it now, and i am stuck at UCLA with an Outback. (it is more versatile)

I come and go all the time. I am back for today, because today I have met another SVX owner. I spotted her on the parking lot in Van Nuys. She was happy to know that i own an SVX. Flooded me with lots of questions. I directed her to this site. So expect another member. I believe her name is Phyllis, and she drives a 92 Silver.

Well, that is all for now, just checking in, saying hi. Have a good drive everyone.

Hello,
Just got a 92 LSL and put another transmission in. Right rear wheel bearing next...Perma Cool filter and a cooler installed to hopefully make the tranny last. Just finished installing the temp gauge in the ashtray. I love this site. A lot of information and helpful people. Thanks for everyone's hard work.

Formerly komm.zu.mir..

It's nice to find an SVX forum.

Currently, my only Subaru's an '01 STM 2.5 RS, and I stomp around on RS25.com most of the time.

I'm keeping an eye out for an SVX, and I'll get one too, eventually.

Thumbs up From the Wilderness

Just got a 'new-to-me' 1992 ebony, low-mileage. It is replacing a 1988 XT6 that just departed my sube stable. This is truly a low mileage SVX(75000km.) Very Canadian, eh? I have never seen a post from Nova Scotia on this forum. Seems strange since this is sube country Maybe I'm the first.
