I' FIXING TO SWAP OUT MY H23A WITH A H22A V-TECH. AND SUGGESTIONS ON ANOTHER ENGINE LIKE THE B-SERIES OR K-SERIES. AND HOW WOULD IT HANDLE IF I TURNED IT INTO REAR WHEEL DRIVE?

 

You should look into Nuclear Propolsion.

You obviously have no idea what you are asking about. Take some time and read through other threads on this board. Dont go over board with mods on a daily driver. If you want a RWD car dont mod your Prelude to do that, trade it in for something that was ment for what you want.

 

with enough passion and desire, you can do anything. you should do the Mustang GT-R swap, look it up on google or something. Mustang GTR with turbo rotary engine, turbo headers, and running 11's on the track. the only thing i'd imagine holding you back from RWD is that you'll probably have to swap everything, like you know how its your front wheels that spin right now? just throw everything in reverse. kinda like switching the gears so you'll have 5 reverses and 1 go. that way you won't have to hack up the frame. all you have to do is put the bumper and panels on backwards.

so fenders swap with rear qtr panel, bumper swaps bumper, hood to trunk, and the windows. after you get that done, it'll not only be a rear-wheel drive, it'll be a mid-engine car like that of the NSX and ferraris.

 

I was told i was able to do a front wheel to rear wheel konversion, but i would have to do a **** load of kustom work, and it wouldnt handle as a true rear wheel drive kar. thats why i was askin. and the engine im set on an H22 but seein if anybody else had any better suggestions.

 

lol ok seriously i feel like i've taken it too far. unless if you're working with literally 10's of thousands of dollars in excess that you have to spend on your prelude it won't be worth it.

in order to do a rear wheel drive setup and keeping your H22.. you're basically trying to turn your motor clockwise 90 degrees, having a custom driveshaft / rear diff / rear suepsension setup made while finding a way to secure it all and have the motor sit correctly. Not only does it not end there, but the heigh of the motor/ tranny IIRC isn't as low as it should be.. so your driveshaft and whatnot would go through your cabin and out to where the rear axles would be. (right where the rear seats are i think) lol in the end, all you really have is a fcuked up prelude and an empty wallet. go sell your prelude for an s2000 if your budget allows. (if you really want RWD) or buy a 240sx.

 

That's wat i thought you would say. just seein wat the opinion was.
