I have the engine and I was wondering if it would work and if any of you think its worth the time and effort. I have a 9 grand budget and I’m questioning if it will cost more. Well tell me what you all think when you can. Thank you

please don't clutter the forum with posts like this.

people that actually do these builds dont start stupid theoretical posts like this. They do it.

?

He has the engine. I don't see what the big deal is. Usually tards ask when they have nothing.

Honestly, I have no idea but would assume it would fit. Call up a few REPUTABLE shops and ask around. But really, I would sell the engine and buy an engine that you KNOW will fit and mod from there.

Balwin

yes. its worth the time and effort. now plz go swap it in and make the first awd turbo accord.

have fun making your mounts and axles.

wolfy47

youd be better off selling the evo crap and doing a K24 turbo imo

i agree, but if u have the $$$ to make it work... go for it

Do you have any fabrication/welding skills?

hondamark35

the topic itself is fine (although it would be better suited for the Hybrid section). what i'm seeing is a trial user with a wild topic like this as his first post on the day he registered without a reply for days or never. to me, that's suspicious. this scenario is getting more and more common on here.

if the OP is serious he'll need to prove it. rough measurements of the motor assembly/engine bay, pics of anything related to doing this, a list of credentials, prior builds...

this may seem harsh, but it's not.

Come on! I think it's productive having 20-40, do nothing threads per day here on H-T! Specially the 1st post ones..... I thought I read another user saying that there was a 5 post minimum for creating new threads? Guess not!

hondamark35

Yeah i also thought there was a minimum.. there needs to be. several other forums i frequent only allow you to post in the "newb" section until you have more than 10 posts. keeps things very clean.

back on topic...

when i first saw this post i thought of the guy who recently put the EG hatch shell over an Impreza rolling chassis. of course he wasn't asking if it were possible or what it would take, he posted pics of the build progress first thing. that's legit.

Samuraij

true. if somebody has to ask if something is possible for them then chances are they can't do it.

Bwill9886

Exactly what I thought of.

And like you said, he didn't go on a forum and ask a really general question, he just did some planning and a bit of research and got to it.

I think the point hondamark35 and I are trying to make is that if you don't already have a general idea of what you will need to do for a project like this, you are probably in over your head.

I'm not knocking the project. Hell, I wanna see you do it. But maybe you need to just get in there and start planning. Do your research and start a build thread and ask specific questions and get opinions. I'd start with looking over other AWD Honda projects and looking at what they had to modify.

Ghost asks this for good reason. The goal can be achieved on your budget but it will definitely depend on how much of it you can do yourself.

I wish you good luck.

anyone else notice that this guy hasn't replied yet? lol
