Default 4wd civic conversion

Does anyone have any knowledge of where I could find out how to do a 4wd conversion on my civic or at least a shop that would do it in Jersey.

There was a recent post (about 2 weeks ago, if that) about the I believe it was a late 80's 4wd Civic wagon. As far as getting the drivetrain to fit in anything newer, ???. The only other option that I have heard of (besides getting a WRX or Skyline, etc drivetrain) would be the CR-V drivetrain.

the EK chassis also had a 4WD model as well...

if it wasn't a civic ferio, then it was the JDM version of my Acura 1.6EL - Honda Domani.

I guarantee you the Domani had a AWD version!

If you even have to ask about the price... Forget about it.

You'll have to relocate the gas tank too so you can mount the rear differential.

How much is it to do the CR-V conversion? What about the 4WD Civic conversion? At one point, a B20 was thought to be "impossible," but that didn't stop anyone. It wouldn't be that costly if he did it himself. A little ingenuity and hard work never hurt anyone.

Hey, i'm new to ht but i could help u out with this problem. I am from the Cayman islands and we have a few 4WD civics here they r the Civic RTi's looks the same just 4WD. They are available in 4door with a SOHC non-vtec engine which sucks. one of my friends had one and crashed it so another friend of mines bought it to try to swap everything into another 4-door shell and it couldn't work at all. the rear frame work is totaly different than ne regular civic so in the end the only thing useable out of the crashed RTi was the motor and tranny with the backend completely disconnected. If u really wan 4WD get and eclipse GSX r WRX.
Hope this helps
