I've been collecting parts for this car for 12 years, with the aim of using factory EA series parts. I imported the gearbox, diff, discs, dash from an L series RX II couple from New Zealand.

I'm sure there are a few things I've missed, I'll get some more photos soon. Let me know if you want any more info. Car is not advertised anywhere else at this stage. I thought i'd give you guys first offer.

Cheers

The offroad air cleaner setup

sold.

It will be missed

I wish I had seen this when it was first put up. Applause for whoever had the good sense to purchase this package.

Commiserations subius. Parting with my '84 after 15 years was like a breakup where nobody was sure whose fault it was.

yeah it was sad to see it go. But the time was right. It was an awesome setup, the full time 4wd box with king springs and new kybs handled like it was on rails on the road, and those khumo tyres were unstoppable offroad.

It went to a good home, many more adventures for it yet I suspect.

So, Sam, show us yer SVX !! please ...??

If you insist.

Had the dash out when the last one was taken. Getting the automatic climate control repaired. All sorted now though

nice bit of luxury there - 72,000 bucks worth in 92 weren't they ? Yours looks to have been kept well all its life Gotta be happy with that !

Damn that is a nice SVX and the cooler climate in Tassie is good at keeping the rust bug at bay an added bonus as well.

Missed this thread the 1st time....WOW love both those Subies!! The blue with gold wheels goes really well

Thanks guys
Just got some new wheels too. 18 x 8.5 from the 2008 STI

Looks "de-90's'd"

Very schmick!

Cheers

it doesn't.

She's got a photo of a skyline on her FB profile now. So she might have sold it. But certainly worth enquiring if you're interested.

Her FB post attached.
