SBT Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I'm looking for a 97 LSI SVX to do an STI or Spec B 6MT conversion on. Failing that, I'll plan to do an LGT 5MT convo and call it a day. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subacy L Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 hmmm. i understood 97 SVX. thats about it. haha. i would like mine with a turbo. alls i really know about turbos is that they use the exhaust for more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSi is the top of the line AWD SVX (like Legacy GT Limited if you will). The 3.3L H6 SVX engine in stock form doesn't take well to turbo-charging, but it has such a broad and deep power band, that it almost doesn't need it with a good intake and exhaust on it. A better, and much easier route, is to supercharge it which would not require customized exhaust to plumb the turbo(s) in and not as drastic changes to the engine management to run it either. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subacy L Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 that all sound very cool. also i never knew you could have more than one turbo. more than one would prolly get you some SERIOUS power not to mention a thrill to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbc84 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Didnt really like foresters when I first got my LGT, but they are growing on me especially one in blue. http://images.motortrend.com/auto_shows/coverage/sema/112_2006_sema_267x+2007_subaru_forester_Sport_XT+front_view.jpg http://mcolburn.com/images/fxt/4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBT Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Do like the XTs, but, unfortunately, the latest gen is only available in 4EAT which doesn't work for me. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLLSubaru Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 I had a 1992 SVX LS-L, which I bought in 1994 with 17,000 miles and sold in 2002 at 103,000 miles. I regret selling it. If Subaru introduced a similar car again, I'd buy. If I came across a mint 1997 SVX, I just might buy it. The SVX is an exceptionally fine vehicle!

whitetiger Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 An SVX would be nice with a 6mt swap with 3 LSDs. The fact that the car only came with a AT made it a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBT Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 The 2 above i posted are last gen, not the current one so they had 5MT's You are correct sir - which is why I was optimistic the 2009+ FXTs would end up with either a 5MT or an STI-optioned 6MT. But *sigh* neither looks to be an option any time soon. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
