Subaru SVX

well, i just got a Subaru SVX. I have had it for barely 3 weeks, and i am running completely stock. I have recently beat a few local Camaro's, a stock GTO, and a semi-tuned civic. These races where 1/4 mile. As i race more and more modded cars i see myself barely winning, or getting dominated. I was wondering if anyone could suggest any simple screw on mods for a Subaru SVX 1992. (anywhere between $100-$300) Any constructive post would be appreciated.


P.S. Yeah i already posted on the SVX forums and it seems since the car is fairly rare, the forum is basicly dead.

Re: Subaru SVX

Bullshit.

No way a stock 3500lb AWD SVX with 230hp, that does 0-60 in 7.3 and the 1/4 mile in 15.5 would be a stock GTO.

No way. No how. Not in a heads up race in the 1/4 mile.

Either that, or he wasn't racing.

Re: Subaru SVX

Fuck yes im gonna jump in! although he says it was "badly taken care of" so Im thinking maybe its an old model which is very believable. The new ones are only 3 years old at the most, no way a LS block is gonna go to shit in only 3 years.

Hundred bucks says I can do it in 30 minutes.

Oh, and BS. Unless it was some old ass GTO that had never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever...ya get the point...been taken care off, you would have lost. I bet you woulda won if you drove your car off a cliff, though.

Re: Subaru SVX

Re: Subaru SVX

It says you have a98 Chevy cavalier in your profile. Anyways, my grandma can beat you in a 1/4 with a GTO. No way you've beaten one.

Re: Subaru SVX

It's got to be some old beat up Pontiac Tempest with GTO badges, cause even an old '66 GTO with an orignal 389 with Tri-Power would of whopped some ass, taken names and wrote home about it.

We need more information.

Do a Google search on "old GTOs" and tell us what it was.


Please.
