None that I know of. Most agree that it is possible, but far too expensive to do. Thought about buying a S2000?

if you realize the amount of work, effort, and of course, money, involved in this undertaking, most anyone would wimp out of this idea. i think all of us at one point thought about it, but i doubt the majority of our pockets run that deep, or even have that kind of time.. good luck though. there's a a 4th gen rwd in here i believe. i think the thread was under something like through hell and back? something to that effect. maybe someone else might remember. but that was some crazy stuff.

There is a guy putting a 350 and rx-7 rear end in his prelude in jacksonville, nc. Haven't heard any new news about it in a few months though.

There was one done on cardomain. Lets just say it was so expensive he could have bought what ever car he wanted. Im not going to search for it because it was deep in the prelude section, it was a 4th gen. Go nuts searching for it if you want to see it.

At the formula D drifting event this year I saw a RWD prelude, but b4 I could go check it out it must have left cause I only saw it do bout 2 rounds. Looked pretty cool though.

Why do you all see only 1 option for the rwd swap?

why does every one think you need and IRS set up?

If you use a 5 link kit it will be 90% easier

i know as im doing it now with a 97 accord with an sr20 up front (no room for anything else and i hate rotors)

seems like no one does research anymore

take a look
