Nothing bothers me more than people from a related forum bashing on cars made by the same manufacturer.

Good thing it sort of got back on track (and topic).

BTW, I thought of it being some sort of hybrid motor with parts from the EZ30 and parts from the EG33, but then again, the motors aren't really close enough to share parts from what I understand.

Either way, EZ or EG, I would love to have that under the hood of my SVX. Not that I don't like the original EG33, but who can say no to twin turbos??

WRXs fast??????

I reckon when they get a Rex to cruise at 140mph (without having to wear a kidney belt), and accelerate up to 160mph, then, we can talk about being FAST

I felt it appropriate to link to the site so they could see that we are NOT all like that.. and to educate anyone curious about the SVX.. but I see your side too.. I took it out.. hope you're happy.. MR. thread killer, geesh, you can even kill em on separate boards.. good job


TO ALL OTHER SVX GUYS THINKING ABOUT POSTING ON THIS NASIOC THREAD..

I think it's about time we let them have their thread back ehh.. good points have been made, I think it can be let go at this point for more friendly ventures.. lets stop trying to insult them, and do more educating first. But not in this thread.. this thread is for a twin turbo WRX.. not us, mmk.

you crazy bunch of HIJACKERSSSSS... go to the OFF TOPIC section if you wanna voice anything else, deal?

Great posts in there, lol. budfreak1 gets the thumbs up from me.

As for the engine name, have you ever asked a Chinese guy to pronounce "EG33"? I have a feeling that's what you'll get.

You are laughing about the engine name? either they name it EG or EZ or ET... it is still a twin turbo H-6 3.3L , something we were not able to accomplish to this day except by supercharging... What they did was great and they are entitled to name the engine whatever they wanna name it...

They didn't name it... Subaru named it the EG33, and they mislabeled it on the car. IIRC, the Legacy is the EZ (EZ30). It is NOT a Legacy engine.

I think it's amazing what they did to the car, but you'd think with all that mechanical prowess they'd also be able to tell the difference between two letters.

Even if you took a Civic 1.6L engine and triple turbo'd it (which is kinda pointless anyways, since one turbo would be fine), I'd still laugh at you if you put in big bold letters on the car: "ACURA SUPER BUDDY CLUB RS AKIMOTO V8 B28C COMBAT STYLE". At least get your nomeclature right.

Honestly, I thought that all that vinyl was unnecessary on the car, and I was laughing more about the fact that they couldn't do the vinyl job right. That's like all the kids nowadays getting Chinese tattoos thinking they got the word "love" or "prosperity" or "big pimpin'", when the tat guy actually inked out "prostitute", "dumbass", or "little d***".

budfreak1, post up the pics/links here. I'm interested.
