i remember telling some people about this, they say: bull ****.
but here's proof.
this is from http://www.bidders.co.jp, which is a ebay site for japan.
i was looking around, because i like to see what people are selling in japan.
i use babelfish.altavista.com to translate the jap to english.
here's the link to the car: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babel...tem%2F10645605
in japan, the honda civic are called: Honda Bick
here's a link to the Honda Bick 4WD RTX: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babel...705199309.html

all i can say is wow, an 4WD honda, haha, that **** must break down easly.
the 4WS on the prelude was crap.

enojoy

 

Yeah i've read about this. All i can say is i wouldn't buy it.

 

You should just look it up on the official Honda webpage. It's nothing new.

However, don't dream you can make an Evo killer with factory Honda parts. Real-time 4WD, same as the CRV. Definitely not a performer.

haha i would take one for free, and drive it off a cliff

 

not very upgradable (not sure if thats a word but)........kinda like the kid who sid he converted his crx to rt 4wd with a turbo b18c5...what a moron...oh yea he ran "10.0005" thats an exact quote

 

lol, 10.0005, lol, I like that. Kinda like the moron down the street from me who bought a brand new civic si and claims it does 13's.

 

I read a while back that a guy was trying to come up with a kit that makes a civic 4wd, but it just wasn't practical and was way too expensive.

 

??? how does a 4WD honda break down easily ?

does CRV break down easily ? MDX ? Pilot ?

and how does 4WS relates to 4WD ?

 

4ws= 4 wheel streering
and who said they never made a 4 wheel drive
that's old skool

 

I know .. but the guy I am quoting said 4ws was ****, but it is nothing related to the Real time 4wd system in Civic , CRV, to some extend the MDX and Pilot..

 

Go back to school. You need some more education.

 

We had an AWD civic here in the states in like 1984 it was a 4 door hatch...I still see a few of them on the road occasionally and its not AWS its AWD..

 

umm didn't this civic wagon come in 4wd??



btw, this is civicwagonman's ride. has a turbocharged sohc vtec motor. i really admire his setup.

edit: ok the pic doesn't show up for me, but here's a link to his very informative page http://yota1man.tripod.com/vtecwagon/index.html

nah im stright, im too currupted by the street.

 

4WD Civic wagons were offered in the U.S. until 1991. I know a guy who swapped in a ZC into one (he had all the crap laying around so it didn't cost him a thing). I guess he used to ice race it.
