well...this would be somewhat "rice" if svx's came in a manual transmission. as far as i know, those only came in auto. damn shame too...that was one ballsy car. wish they would bring it back cause id buy it over the wrx any day.

Tach mounted inside of an automatic transmission vehicle is not always considered rice. I have a friend that has a truck thats automatic. The truck doesnt have a rpm gauge in it and thats how it comes stock. So he put in a small tach to keep track of his RPM. So in this case I believe a tach would make some sense. Just my opinion.

That SVX is somewhat like a 3000GT, a techno showcase and heavy as ever.
