What do you guys think about this idea?
Im currently in the middle of my GS-R build....
Im goin OBDI after im done w/ this car tho.
I wanna buy a DA, do a B20 block w/ a Type R head. Garret T3/T4 Ballbearing Turbo and modify a CRV tranny to fit the DA w/ the CRV AWD setup. I kno theres alot more to it than that...
Any thoughts on it?
Suggestions?
etc...

Waste of time and money if you ask me.

My only concern would be that the CRV tranny doesn't have a center diff. So you'll have 4WD, not AWD. Unless you use the CRV rear diff, which I believe includes a clutch to allow the rear wheel to turn at a different rate than the front. I don't know if the CRV rear end will handle the power though...

Now, since we're talking about impractical AWD ideas, why not go for the RL's SH AWD? I haven't been able to find out much information, but from what I have seen, it looks like it doesn't use a center diff, and the rear end handles the speed differences front/back during a turn, as well as the torque/speed transfer left/right. I mean, if you're going to do all of the fabrication to mount a rear diff, might as well go all out.

Just my 2cents that I have nowhere better to spend at the end of the work day.
