Yeah man, just go searching around at junk yards. Post pictures on how it goes, and how fun it is. Possibly even a How to for us Rookies. Good Luck.

Okay, hate to crap on your dream, but it'll be better for you to understand how huge of an ordeal your taking on for very minimal gains before you spend money on it.

The CRV drivetrain is NOT capable of putting down very much power. Period. They do have AWD Civics and Integras over seas, but there is a reason you don't see too many here. You're not going to be able to use the CRV transmission as is, because it's physically too long. I could go on, but I've explained why this won't be worth it time after time already.

EDIT: If your asking for a walkthrough, this is DEFINATELY not something you're going to be able to do. There is so much custom fab work that I personally wouldn't touch this with a 50 foot pole and I can swap out a transmission like it's second nature.
