4WD Civic Starting project
 

can anyone tell me if you can buy something different for a crx drivetrain that will transfet 50/50 f/b instead of 90/10 f/b and anyone with some stupid advice of don't do it can post somewhere else !!!!!!


want ot put a crv 4WD drivetrain into an EG HB and advince or idea's

DON"T TELL ME NOT TO DO IT OR YOU CANT CUZ THAT WOULD MAKE YOU MORE FOOL THAN ME

ahhh do you relise how much effort it is to convert to awd...even on the fwd tsi talons' it's a complete bitch and they are a awd platform........not worth it...

you would want a different transfer case.... you might be able to adjust the stock one though?? i dont know...

what you have to remember though is that the crv drivetrain isn't meant for speed or performance....

its not a stupid idea... its just a hard idea to excecute....

this is not what i want to hear please i know what im undertaking and i WANT to do it i know its not meant for speed but it can be made i have seen aftermarket kits which are stronger for the crv im looking to make a $WD civic end of story i need HELPFUL advice not people telling me its not worth it because its worth it to me !!!!!

i didn't tell you it wasn't worth it.... i told you the stock crv stuff can't handle performance or power...

do a search on google though, i remember some magazine made a type r into 4 wheel drive... can't remember which mag is was though

I think sport comp? did a AWD crx.

sorry goes out to punkindrublic for thinking i was refering to him i was refering to dingus telling me how hard it was on a talon and that its not worth it !!!!!!! this is what im doing now i want any useful help i know its going to be a pain in the ass but worth it in the end to say i have a 4wd civic !!!!!!!!!!

that would be SICK!

anything is possible!
look at the EIP GOLF VR6 Turbo AWD

i have the issue of Honda Tuning where they made a Integra (GS-R i think?) into 4wd using the CRV drivetrain..... if i get muh scanner up and running properly i will post pics of the pages :thumbup:

probably be a lot easier just doing a body swap and a major suspension dump on the crv frame/suspension....no??

interesting idea tho..

buy a AWD talon...a awd launch on a torqueless b16 woudl be ****..lol

there is a integra AWD in honda-tuning... i got it in my hands right now...

ya i have that issue as well, this would be an interesting project, u should take pics of ur progress and post it up for us to c

I wish you the best of luck in this ... it can be done ... but it will cost alot .... as for advice no one here has done this (to my knowledge) and therefore can't give much ...:p

i have searched the internet high and low and haven't found much useful info!!!! i have a welder , a smashed crv(b20 and drive train ) and an eg hatch and i will make it all work out one way or another !!!!!

damn you :D I've been itching to do almost the same thing, but in a EF sedan with full B20 running gear and a turbo on it. SICK!!! It's a sweet idea. Basically what I wanted to do was line everything up, cut out whatever on the floorpan was in the way, and build a full tube frame inside with all the CRV mounting points on the tube frame, so basically off the CRV everything bolted right up to the tube frame just like it would on a CRV. Only thing I'd need would be custom axles and prolly to shorten the driveshaft going to the rear... and also I'd wanna put a complete front knuckle in the rear so I have a hub for the axle to go into cuz the rear won't accept an axle. You could use the CRV susp and knuckles, but then your car will be as tall as a CRV. Honda Tuning did an AWD CRV/Integra a while back. Check out their site. Your other option would be a twin engine car. Some guy in MI is doing a H22A turbo RWD rear engine del Sol. Full tube frame capable of accepting another H22A turbo in the front compartment. :)

i am pretty much going ot do what you say get everything lined up and proper i was going to vut out the whole rear of the car and weld a whole crx rear in there with wheel wells and all i can drop or raise the car to whatever i think is cool cuz im making all new rear wheel mounts !!!

ya know, in honda tuning, what they did to the 'teg sounded mainly like fabrication (cutting/welding), so if you do that yourself, and already have the crv drivetrain and stuff, it probably wont cost too much money, you just need someone knowledgable with trannies, shift linkage, and driveshafts....

i will do it all myself the only problem im seeing as a big hassle right now is routing the exaust cuz the drive shaft needs to be in center of the car !!!!! well so does the mid pipe !!!???????!!!!!!!??????

I know someone who is going to do a twin Engine h22 :yummy:
