Sorry silver spear I think the russians win

Event
Festival of tyuninga. Participant №8 Subaru SVX

This truly immortal creation of Japanese reason, until now, by the head is higher than many contemporary concepts

Name is its own

There was at first sound. Hardly noticeable, that was being borne somewhere far, it rapidly gathered force, forcing the eardrums panically to vibrate under the pressure of low-frequency scream. Must be, THIS already entirely next. But where, because of what turning IT will arrive? Head does not maintain infinite rotation to all 360 degrees, in the eyes the continuous ripples: well where, where?.. And IT Appears. Unexpectedly, as if materializing from air on the almost empty road and instantly concentrating on itself the whole world of the morning sun, whose skew rays with the explicit pleasure here repeated all details of relief body and joyfully began to play in the numerous chrome-plated knitting needles of 17- one inch wheels. Idiocy, of course, but for some reason immediately it was wanted to be handled official letter to Fuji Heavy Industries: gentlemen the Japanese, but you did not hurry with the removal from production Subaru Alcyone SVX? The juicy roar of six-cylinder oppozita, the madly stylish and harmonious exterior, which continues to charm and to shock here already for a period of fifteen years - this truly immortal creation of Japanese reason, until now, by the head of higher than many contemporary concepts. What, it did pass epoch? Nothing surprising. Azhiotazhnym demand it did not enjoy? And this is understandable. Ah, prime cost, the volumes of sales, profit. Really and to this automobile let us apply low mercantile approach? Yes? It is it's a pity...


The mechanically adjustable angle of attack of front spoiler - it is effective, and it is effective
For the first time name Alcyone appeared in the model range Subaru in 1985, after marking with itself the appearance of two-door sleeping compartment with the sufficiently daring exterior and the completely "space" salon. Front and all-wheel-drive automobiles were equipped with 1,8- liter oppozitami, "mechanics" or AKP. But the quite topovaya version OF THE VX was accessible only with the "automaton" and the motor into 2,7 liters. On the boundary of decades to name Alcyone was added abbreviation SVX that actually indicated the production of other absolutely model. Fantastic design with the mass of the brilliant and, until now, nowhere meeting solutions, 3,3- liter Boxer 6 eg33 under the cowling and only AKP. The basic markets for sale - Japan and THE USA, where automobile was delivered as Subaru SVX. alas, future proved to be not not so close, and after production was convoluted only yr.


The motor section SVX is executed in yellow- turn blue to gamma. The matter remains only after the neon illumination of entire this splendour
It is difficult to represent that still recently this Bordeau red- dark-blue "chameleon" SVX was the very tired from the American highways copy, advanced on sale in Irkutsk. Such get tiredded that of six cylinders of powerful oppozita worked exactly half! And nothing - machine continued to remain sufficiently frisky, even in spite of "Glucks" AKP, also by the fairly shabby life. But also in the beginning of the ninetieth, and priorities in selection SVX now remain spectacular appearance, comfortable salon, excellent controllability and dynamics (240 hp and 309 nm plus complete drive with the slippage of the front driven wheels something they mean), and therefore the present owner SVX it decided to return to automobile previous combat capabilities.
On the spot of selector AKP - metallic knob Motorspeed. But monitor in the front panel - in no way plant assembly, although is regarded by the native

Driver counter obtained three new instruments Auto Gauge: voltmeter, the pressure sensor of oil and composition of fuel-air mixture. In the very near future to them the tachometer and the fuel-pressure gauge will be joined

Ventilation "gills" on the edges of cowling and the relief outlined opening on to center in this machine simply obligated to be, but they are prepared only in Irkutsk

The perforated retarding discs are well visible through the chrome-plated 17- one inch casting. But on the brake assemblies, possibly, soon will appear inscription Brembo
Threatened the serious repair of the engine, which it was decided to conduct independently, without resorting to the aid of autos-service. Good, and experience of some there was, and the coefficient of confidence to local motor mechanics left much to be desired itself. But as frequently it is, the matter did not end by usual reducing procedures - the interior of motor they proved to be thoroughly they were finished. It is thorough, but not to the end - all attempts to find on EG33 tyuningovye spare parts like the "humpbacked" it is gross, forged pistons, etc. they were completed by complete failure. But also made it proved to be sufficiently in order with the "additive" in the form of direct-flow release and "zero" filter Motorsport to raise the power of engine up to the imposing 270 horses. Gearbox proved to be also it was substituted, but again to the "automaton" - SVX is used for the daily trips around the city, yes even it is more preferable for the owner OF AKP. An increase in the "herd" required the installations of more volumetric radiator and perforated retarding discs. Brake assemblies themselves thus far "relatives" (SVX it were reached to present owner with the riveted boot-trees!), but is planned introduction Brembo. When those being suitable according to the size and the characteristics will be located.

the "nonstandardness" of automobile appeared well in the attempt to establish the spacer between the front counters - there are no "relatives" generally, but of those two located by one it did not fall in the fastenings, and another did not make it possible to shut cowling. It was necessary to improvise, after taking from each the suitable elements and after gathering of them one, reliable and functional. However, the largest complexity arose with the search and the selection: wires and storage battery! The motor section SVX is executed in yellow- turn blue to gamma, so that to find electrical equipment of appropriate is color it proved to be task pokruche, than overhaul and boosting engine. But who searches for - that finds, and the now under-cowl space of automobile is inferior in no way to appearance, but supplement picture the numerous reinforced branch pipes and the chrome-plated expansion tank Zero Sports. The matter remains only after the neon illumination of entire this splendour, which the owner promises soon to establish.


The high-quality leather salon SVX thus far did not have time to undergo cardinal change, although the corresponding plans are located
The high-quality leather salon SVX thus far did not have time to undergo cardinal change, although the corresponding plans exist. But began everything sufficiently usually - from the installation of high(ly)-class mul6timedia- system and fitting into the front panel of large JK- monitor. Then along the salon "crawled" the inserts, which imitate the discharges of the lightning, which in the very near future will be supplemented by analogous aerography and neon illumination. Does not pass cup this and modest sizes baggage carrier SVX - there is planned the building of immense and spectacular musical center and cinema. Driver counter obtained three new instruments Auto Gauge: voltmeter, the pressure sensor of oil and composition of fuel-air mixture. In the very near future to them the tachometer and the fuel-pressure gauge will be joined. On the wide central tunnel instead of the standard selector AKP, as if the lever of catapult, stands in beauty the metallic handle Motorspeed.


Successful "from the generation" rear bumper with two two-dimensional nozzles of mufflers acquired only by lattice in the center section and aerodynamic openings along the sides
I, certainly, appearance. It is difficult to represent, how it is possible to change the exterior of this self-sufficient automobile as Subaru SVX, and in this case to make it it is better than the previous. Here to the aid arrived the Irkutsk design- studio "Aerokit", whose specialists by several precise primes could not simply give to exterior view SVX the required uniqueness, but also make this it is so jewelry that all changes seem by the integral part of the automobile. Without being loud and completely corresponding to the general style of machine. Looking at the round lenses of separate front headlights, hardly the noticeable "nostril" of air duct to the right of radiator lattice, the effektneyshiy front spoiler with the adjustable (!) angle of attack, the fog lights and the openings for cooling the brake assemblies, can be asserted - so it was. Like rear bumper - successful "from the generation", with two two-dimensional nozzles of mufflers, it acquired only by lattice in the center section and aerodynamic openings along the sides. Or cowling - ventilation "gills" on the edges and the relief outlined opening on to center in this machine simply obligated to be but nothing similar - all this Made in irkutsk.

Remain small moments like other, in addition completely exclusive dimensional fires and rear optics, and also neon illumination under the bottom, after which SVX finally will become extraterrestrial ship. Purpose will be achieved. Although to now name this automobile by the dull letters SVX will no longer come out. In it is a name its own. What - knows only owner.

Ok Black Beast

I really like what he did to his car, but the thing is that you all are used to my car right? when you see something different you all are like WoooW, that's really cool, right?

Lets look at the pics once again:

1- The front hood: he just glued a U shaped thing on the middle of the bonnet, it is made out of fiberglass (over metal) which will crack over time
Also he glued two scoops (similar to the 1997 Grand Cherokee 5.2? 5.9L) and which are not streaming with the hood. There is a rear angle where you can see them sticking real high...

2- The headlights: cool looking fiber mods, but does the headlights still light like that? I was about to do the same thing... but in this way, you will never have a good lighting ahead just the looks...

3- The front bumper: very very near to mine, the only difference is that i am having larger beamlights... and i have two openings at each side for cooling my K&N which will be covered by a copper box.. Ooops, i revealed my secret in another thread

4- he has no side skirts... not flowing with the front and rear spoilers

5- His car's ass looks very.... euh non innovative?

6- What i really really like about his mods, is the way he did his faux wood and the monitor installed in front of the passenger seat in the dash!! really COOL

and Black Beast, no offense, BUT NOBODY BEATS THE SPEAR !!! , J/K hahaha

I'd like to see a bigger pic of the engine bay...interested on the intake. Yeah its in the engine bay but still I'm curious.

Yeah the wheels are a bit ehh, and it is too ricey with those headlights and side vents on the hood. Still, its nice to see people's interest in modding the SVX, even tho sometimes the modding process enters the "ricing" process.

Overall A for effort. And besides, the owner probably loves his svx, and that is what counts .

Hehe, i know that...

But i really like his front bumper and inside mods.
The front bumper is innovative and nice, but he based it on the factory PLASTIC bumper, which i don't prefer... it will get cracked by time.

The inside is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet really
