the part list for my car was basicly complete drivetrain from a 99-00 crv.*

- gearbox + brackets + cables*
- starter ( you will need to grind off the starter or the block to make it fitt in - i reconmend you mock up the box and motor before you put it in and you will see right away what i mean )*
- driveshaft*
- rear differential*
- axles ( i used two right ones in my setup, reason- the rear diff in the crv is not in the middle, so the axles are differant length, but i put it in the middle in the civic an could use them with no mods at all, no need tho shorten or lengthen them )*
- trailing arms*
- lower control arms*

also used*
- integra rear shocks*
- e-brake cables from any civic with drum brakes*
- civic shuttle gas tank ( i strongly reconmend a fuelsell for this - i regret not have)*

think thats it.*
to go for front five lug ,the ITR front is the easyest way to go, do not waste time on the crv ones .

its ugly as hell but who cares*





i bought a complete drivetrain from an crv , gearbox, driveshaft ,diff ,axles ,lca´s and trailing arms ...

and shittlode off coffee :yes:

started on the trailing arms..





























and started stripping it down







fitted the trailing arms...



and now "how in the ...." began ..

Have you thought about the rear diff's power handling abilities? They're basically worthless for anything more than stock power. That's the main reason I haven't started my AWD CRX yet.

Gunni

if it breaks it breaks..

i have abused it allot and it still holds up (so far) and im not aiming for 500 horses anyway , and if it becomes a problem then there are allot off other differentials that can hold up the abuse for longer time but they all break in the end.

the civic is lighter, and runs on smaller tires so the strain on the diff is not as much.
i have seen many different ways to modify the rear diff so it holds up and seen up to 4-500 horses so nothing should stop you...

i would start on the crx if i were you cus this is allot of fun to drive

You made it look too easy...nice work

E for effort, that is a lot of work. Not sure what country you are from, but Honda does make an AWD ek, called the Orthia. It came with the same b20 the curve did

Btw, the curve and it'd use the same front brakes

Gunni

iceland... i have never heard off these cars hehe

**** man that's awesome! ^

wow nice to see somebody who kept it serviable and didn't just weld the bearings into the trailing arm . maybe you could give the guy with the integra some help lol https://honda-tech.com/forums/acura-integra-6/awd-integra-gsr-build-3132031/

RT_NEWYORK

really cool vids and car, what was the top speed you hit on the gravel video and did you stay with the B16?

Eddie

Always entertaining seeing this. Good work

Texas4door

You're a mad genius.
That is all.

Gunni

he has sent me a few messages .
they main idea was to be able to get it fixed if i would break, and not have to modify everything again and again.

about 120-30 ish and the b16 is still in.

hehe thanx.

Elye7

AMAZING build! are you planning on boosting that b16?

ne0tas

I just came everywhere dear lord
why did you stay with the b16 btw? you can build a b20 vtec and make gobbles more torque and power
