The stable mate to my 318 is a 1992 Subaru SVX/AWD.82,289 miles.Purchased the car from the original owner a few years ago.however this is my 4th SVX.Great cars and the ride is outstanding the 230 HP doesn't hurt either.

The car is very very sweet, quad cam flat 4 ready to kick, yes. A bit heavy, but a great car!

I thought they were the coolest cars when I first saw one. Then I bought a bimmer.

Witeshark it has the flast six quad cams and top sped of around 154/LOL.I know it will do 140 with no problem.Yes k.sidlosky I agree with you a Bimmer is an excellent vehicle.I own a 1989 K100 RS bike with 85,000 trouble free miles,so I am no new owner to the BMW product line.But hey I belive a person should try all types of vehicles as I now own 8 different makes and enjoy them all.My 84 BMW will shortly undergo the L6 plus T3/T4 turbo upgrade.Had a few Shelby Chargers with the 2.2 turbos and you can' beat the power per dollar.To all thanks for the great site and I am looking froward to some help with my conversion,seems the mechanics here in the US just don't know anything about the swaps so I will be asking for help.Have a great day to all and a fantastic site.

Oh wow, Spdfrk92, you have the Subaru rally engine then? Woo hoo!

Yep Witesark it is the biggest enigine intoduced in the SVX.The car handles like a train on tracks just so many options I wouldn't list them all.However I am going to earnestly try to copy some of the members in Europe and get some just stupid power from the 318 when the install is completed.Thanks for the fast response and keep all 4 on the ground.BTW this car is from St. Pete,close to you I belive!
