Default converting a honda civic to a rwd and drifting successfully?

i know that it'd be kind of great
but is it really possible
not that i'd try and do that
i'd just buy a 240sx
but has anyone seen it happen?

It would be an enormous amount of work.

I believe I once saw a RWD swapped 5th gen, but it was only the one and I'd doubt how well the entire thing works for drifting.

There are AWD Civics and Integras in Japan. Neither have ever proven to be good candidates for drifting though. Seeing how big that scene has gotten I would expect to have seen at least one by now if they could hold up though.

haha i wanna try and make a RWD eg6... that would be so sexy on a hatch, slam it put some nice wheels on it and sit at a stop light and just roast the tires all day long cuz there is NO weight in the back of an eg6... ::dreams::
