I used a smaller sized aluminized fiberglass heat shield. I think this is just a large size.Heatshield Products 175115 Armor Exhaust Heat Shields

I know its been too long, but more important things took my time away from the build and posting. I have made some progress. lots of custom work to get the wrx/sti parts to play nice with the svx.

I decided to replace the strut mounts to allow any wrx or sti coils to bolt right up.


For clearance of the uppipe, I decided to use the wrx front subframe.

Since the last post, a lot has happened. Long story short the car is running and driving; running around 400hp. It doesn't have power steering, but is light enough that its not bothersome.


I made custom LCA mounts for easy caster adjustment.


Bolted in the coilovers.
Cut the bumper bar for the intercooler.



Dropped the engine and transmission into the car.

Made a transmission crossmember.
had a custom driveshaft made.
made a wrx exhaust fit an SVX.
finished all the rear end suspension ( last thing was swaybar mounts).

Installed the majority of the wrx and svx interior.
WRX dash, carpet, seats
SVX headliner, trim peices, and door cards

Wired in the power mirrors, sound system, windows, taillights and headlights.


sorry if you cant view the images, imgur is acting up and i have not been able to get it to work with linking and showing images here. advice here would be greatly appreciated.

Default SVX Built WRX swap

Though the car is running and driving, it has some bugs that i am current trying to work out before i put it on the road. Still needs a skid tray, muffler, seat belt buckles that fit, wiper motors working, alignment, paint, etc. The car has come a long ways since I started, but it still has numerous things left before it is a comfortable and reliable swap. I want the ability to use it on a daily basis and not be inconvenienced. If anyone knows anyone who has finished a ej swap on an svx, please link them.
