Default My Ef hath project.. crazyness? i think so.

The car: 1991 Honda civic hatch std.

the project: Ls/vtec, skunk2 pro2 cams, boost, run on E85... but also be awd

ok, well so far i have the Ls/vtec swap already done. along with the the swap. i have done a conversion from the std interior to a DX interior.

This is how the car sits now:
b18a1 block
acl bearings/ oem rings
arp rod and main bolts
b16a2 head~ fully rebuilt, also ported/ polished
gsr cams
jg cam gears
ctr intake mani/ hondata intake spacer
b&m fpr
walbro 190 lph pump
2.25" header back w/ resonater and dynomax muffler
hasport mounts
b16 cable tranny w/ clutchnet 6 puck
jk motorsports traction bars
da teg front brakes
edlebrock short throw shifter
poly bushings
16 inch enkie wheels
chipped pr3 w/ mugen gsr base map
dropzone front struts/ tokico blues rears w/ dropzone coilovers















So on to the project part.
I first i just wanted to do a nice N/a build. but it turned into this project i have now. I have skunk2 pro2 cams. which is a cam more for high compression. but are ok to use with boost. well my motor will be at 11:1 compression. well up until now i wanted to leave it that way and just throw the cams in, until a buddy of mine scrapped his turbo corba project, he donated a kkk26 turbo. which will work great for 6-8 psi for my build. so then it became a camed motor with boost. then i thought about it, why not just go all out, and do E85 and awd. so as of this winter the car will be torn down. for the cam install and the turbo install. then a tune for E85. unless i find a awd wagon this winter the awd will come most likey towards the summer. or next fall.

i also have some other goodies that will go into the car as well.

first are the black racing seats, along with a new shift linkage since this one is boken

looks fun.

you say your looking for like a wagovan, or some sort of wagon tranny. I'm no expert but I think you will want the CRV AWD tranny, diff, driveshaft ect. not to mention tons of fab work, moving the gas tank rerouting exhaust ect. I'm not sure if you've seen the AWD CRX build in the hybrid forum, but his post should help you alot on the AWD

the wagons tranny is d series, and you've got a b series motor. you will need a B series tranny please correct me if i'm wrong

here a link to pics of the AWD crx http://public.fotki.com/morgie...turbo/
