So picking up an rb2 odyssey on Friday. Just want to run a couple things by the more knowledgable guys and make sure I'm headed in the right direction with this build.
if I read the other threads correctly the odyssey has a similar system as to the CRV. Meaning for a higher HP build it has the trans that I want but the weaker rear end so I'll want to source a wagovan rear diff, drive shaft, and CV Axels. Is that all I need to upgrade on the driveline side of things?

 

What market are you in ( country) that has an all wheel drive odyssey?

 

Oh it must be this

 

Canada, fresh JDM import. Rb2 odyssey, k24a2, has the full Cusco catalog of chassis supports/bars thrown at it, upper/lower control arms front and rear, sways/ends, coils. Driveline it's self has not been touched yet but will be bolting on a turbo kit and aiming for 5-600ish. So I'd like to fix the driveline before it starts breaking as it is the wifes daily driver.

 

Have you seen the prices Wagovan drivelines are commanding these days? I could have retired had I not just walked past all those Wagovans in junkyards 20 years ago...

But to answer your question - yes, if you can find one, get it and use it. I've seen some people using Freelander VC's lately, but they are not serviceable without cutting open / re-welding. Wylotec is working on a billet Wagovan VC, and at one point in time, PBE was working on a billet Wagovan rear diff housing, though I'm not sure where either company is at with them.
