just a thought...i know the crv real-time 4wd isn't as performance oriented as say the sh-awd on the rl...but with enough experimenting...a civic with k24 and 4wd is plausible right? and i know money will get you anything, but i mean that it wall all 'relatively' bolt up (the suspension parts will probably have to be changed as well as the driveshaft) like a type-r can be dropped into a crx opposed to the complex installation of say a sr20det into a honda? am i being too much of a noob? probably..

 

Anything can be done for the money....


however the realtime awd system isn't just
slip and activate

if its being overworked it shuts down
where i would assume by doing this you'd be building it for racing or perf use

that would probably shut it down ALL the time

 

haah eric it's me CHIP haha.. dude you shoulda sold me your EF! ahah.

 

Since the current CR-V is based on the 7th-gen Civic, I'm going to go out on a limb and say nothing will line up correctly. The cost/complexity of doing it will outweigh whatever benefits you'd get from the AWD system...Plus, you'd have to use the CR-V transmission, so say goodbye to 6th gear.

Overall, getting everything to work correctly might be even more difficult than an SR20DET swap.
