I am new to hondas but all of my friends are tuners and techs. I love the idea of a sleeper wagon and would like to see it happen. I have an 88 civic wagon lined up, i just need some good ideas; can anybody help me out?

 

I love old civic wagons, is it 4wd? I have always though it would be cool to do an engine swap into an old 4wd wagon.

 

how would you swap a fwd motor into a 4wd vehicle without loosing your 4wd? You can do pretty much anythign to it though..motor swaps, suspension mods, brake upgrades...the sky seems to be the limit with Hondas!

 

I thonk the zc is able to be swaped in, i have no idea how you would do the trannys though.

 

wagons are sick! my buddy had a stock ls motor in his for a long time and let me tell you it surprised more than one person. now he has turned it into a h-c car with fastbrakes and a jdm itr motor. it's going to be a quick car once the damn motor gets sorted out.

 

there it is again..neemas infamous silent thumbs up..haha..word

 

my friend has a wagon too with an ls in it. he built it up and was running it with a 75 shot. funny how everyone would laugh so much when he pulled up and then the jaws would drop.

 

they are sleepers

 

The 88 - 91 ZC engine will bolt right up to the exsisting transaxle and will work with the wiring and ecu if you have a 4wd wagon. If it's just a regular DX 2wd, definitely go B - series.

 

Well, unfortunately its just a fwd but hey, that doesnt really stop the potential of it; does it Does anybody have any pics or videos or know of any sites with some modded wags? I cant seem to find any. I'm thinking of doing an ls/turbo swap into it. I'm sure it will pull just a little bit harder than the 1.5

theres a few on this website that are modified. one guy has a b16 in his. the wagon has a better front to rear weight ratio than the other cars. I can lose most cars in the turns with mine.
