i was just reading about an 89 AWD civic HB. yes you read that correctly. do a search if you dont believe me. ok well i am sure some people have heard about it or came across it a time or two. hell i am sure someone has already asked the question i am about to ask, before. anyways here goes....

in 89 there was an awd civic hb and wagon as well as an awd integra zxi. they were powered by a weak ZC motor and never really caught on cause of lack of power. anyways...i was wondering if the parts from the HB could be swapped over to a CRX? anyone have any clue.

also this brings up another idea. much like honda tuning is doing...awd integra type-r...maybe this combined with that could lead us to an AWD Bseries CRX...i dont think weight would be a problem and well well all know the crx with the bseries is a beast...imagine the possibilities of awd added to that. anyhow enough rambling. i jsut wanted to see what everyone else thought. flame me if you must.....

 

well if you were smart you could get a civic and ****** the whole drive train out of a crv then get a custom drive shaft for the rear end. then bam have fun welding.

 

Someone was working on an awd crx, it had a gsr engine and it had a turbo also. I'm sure someone still has the link with the pics.

that one big bob?

 

Yep, thats the one.

 

A local guy is doing an AWD Del Sol, same principles apply. He is building it to hold a turbo, N2O, and use an Auto trans?!?!

it's not awd, its rt4wd. yes there is a difference.

i also wouldnt call the zc weak by any means.

 

WOW thats impressive.. 1.7 60'.. lightweight, AWD, and turbo.. im surprised there arent more of these conversions around..

ahh yeah forgot about that. there is a big difference in AWD and realtime 4wd...

also i wanted to add that personally i dont find the ZC to be weak, otherwise it wouldnt be a popular swap on the older generations...thats just what i gathered from alot of other websites and most of it is their wording....

i am actually thinking about attempting to do this RT4WD conversion on one of my EK coupes since its trash right now anyways, i am in debt on it and wont ever be able to trade it in reasonably, so time to start hacking away....i am going to look at a wrecked CRV right now....
