Drischnie You have scored ! What a beauty, looks flawless on the body! What year is it? A 1993? What rim and tire size is that, they are a lower profile than stock. My son can't see the picture of the engine because then he would demand that I get a Transformers Oil fill cap like you have! Is that an aftermarket inline coolant heater on the rad hose? What is the aftermarket electronic box on the firewall above the intercooler /intake? What shape are the front seats in? are they as nice as the outside? Nice aftermarket CHIN spoiler on the front, The Air box removal for Cold air looks interesting, Could we see up close there?

Nice collection,
I have seen those GX-T 's before. What are your impressions of what it feels like inside one verses the Vivio Hatchback?
Is the GX-T lighter?
The 4 door Vivio is interesting, is it the European spec one with a larger engine?
Really like the license plate on your WR-X (555)
Those Mini Wheels on the Vivio got me thinking they would be great to have, perhaps I will start looking for a set.

That's a cool looking bit of kit. I am guessing we didn't get them here Australia.

no chance to get the RX-R street legal in germany :-( :-( :-( i have to sell it international. the german laws are so hard with cars... :-( Drischnie, this is horrible news, What happened? I thought you would have no problem since there are basic Vivio cars sold by Subaru dealers and also you have registered I believe your GX-T Correct? What is the problem, somebody in the inspections office afraid that your little 660 engine will outperform their Ferrari?

its cause the emissions law in germany. germany never had a vivio. only austria and switzerland and belgium and so on. but not germany. My GX-T has german TÜV and is street legal cause its a 1993 modelyear with other emissions laws. but the RX-R is 1996.... newer emissions dutys. i am really angry about that but theres no chance... so i have to give away in another country. dont want to have it anymore when i am not allowed to drive it

Anyway, Is the GX-T a single cam or twin cam engine? How often after it is registered do they do an inspection? Is it likely that you would want to swap the twin cam engine into the GX-T for the period between inspections?
