Default awd wagons

has anyone got one of these guys? i'd assume there as universal as most 4th gen civics...but does anyone have more info on them? hows the awd system and the tranny hold up, etc...also i would assume only a d series would fit, if you wanted to keep the awd, so options would be ZC or SOHC VTEC...thanks for any help

the awd uses the same axles as a 93 acura ls. all the shafts and gears in the trans are larger than the normal d-series trans also. the weak link is the transfer case and the rearend. iv'e been told they tend to grenade over about 210 hp.

don't know much about the swap itself, but i've got a friend who's like 50, and he's got a ZC swap in his AWD wagon. he said it handles like no other. he goes to track events and can get that thing sideways easier than the RWD guys.

Hunter - who thinks a turbo zc wagon would be the fizzle
