Something just bugs me that people do that kinda stuff to a svo, if they wanted that why didnt they just get a gt and put a 2.3t in it? They are rare and i kick myself in the ass for letting mine go but it doesnt look bad but in the first pick what is up with the leveling of the seats

AGAIN IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PERFECT SVO THIS IS NOT THE CAR FOR YOU BUT IF YOU LIKE SVO PERFORMANCE, HANDLING AND MILEAGE & WANT SOMETHING THAT LOOKS BETTER THIS IS IT.

its just not the same .its not worth anything being that altered. you might as well go buy any fox body with a 2.3 turbo swap.and to get it back to factory you are looking at a pretty penny to make it stock .their was a 89 with a 2.3 turbo swap in portland for a grand on craigslist.

You could always pick it up and hide it at my house with all your christmas presents. I might even be able to find garage spot for it if you come take a couch off my hands.

OOooooo! Merry Christmas to me!

Or, that would make a great daily driver for KT, no?

You're on your own with the couch bud.

I don't look at it that way. I see a very clean well cared for car that will soon need no emissions testing. The fact that is not badged as an SVO just makes it cheaper and a better value for money in my book.

nice, but is (stock for stock) an 86' rack and pinion a faster rate than say an 82'?both GT models..thanks and not to steal your post, but there are plenty of cheaper 4 bangers in my area, just not SVO's

Having had a couple of SVO's it is sad to see one lose most of the SVO parts but it is still a clean car and I like the look of it...well all but the wheels. I just don't know if people will pay the $3500 for a half breed SVO. I find you either love the 2.3t or you could care less for it IMO.
