Has anybody did a awd conversion on a integra or civic and how hard would it be to do it?

 

It'd be a lot of work for not much gain.

 

ive heard of RWD conversion.... how hard is that to do?

 

the october issue of honda tuning they are doing an all wheel drive conversion on a 94 integ. they are putting a crv tranny and drivetrain into it, with modification of course, it does seem like a lot of work

 

ive seen it on a crx. They use the CRV platform

 

its in the new honda tuning magazine. theres tons of welding and cutting.
something i don't is worth it. but in the next issue if they actually put some power in it. I want to see 500hp and i want to see 10's on street tires.

 

how about a wrx motor in a teg??

 

technically you can take the whole drive train out of a CRV with transmission and slam it into an integra, but iot would take a TON of money, custom fabrication, and modifications to the drive train. you would also be stuck with honda's real time awd system, not exactly for performance, as far as i understand, it only engages the rear wheels when the front are slipping...
somebody did the awd crv conversion in a crx, but it didnt take well to the exhausting mod.

 

i guess my response was a bit late...

 

here's my awd teg

 

your tires dont rubb? hahah ....but yeah awd was in honda tuning...not worth it...but anything is possible

That would never be worth it. It would much, much easier just to buy a wrx. But anything is possible. How do you think an awd teg would handle?

 

it would be so light!! i think... and FUN! u can buy a rolled wrx for the price of a b18c5

 

the cost of all the custom work parts instalation it would be way too much to be worth it unless you had tons of money to waste ...

 

i really dont think it would be worth it. like everyone said.. it could cost a huge amount of money. not to mention your times are likly to drop since yoiu would look a good amount of hp in the new drivetrain, not to mention a nonpreformance drivetrain like the crv. as much as ff na cars dream about being awd fi, the tegs handling competes with the best so i saw dont mess with a good thing

 

just buy the Xi-AWD integra from japan and drop a B18c into it!!!!!

EXACTLY!... honda did make an AWD integra... the pike's peak JRSC integra type R is getting beat by the STi and EVO so the team is looking for the Xi-AWD to do the conversion... mann only if they sold those in the states

See this thread.

 

with all the money you'd spend trying to convert to awd...you might as well just buy a crv.

 

It does exist.....

Notice the sticker on the side says, "Real Time AWD".

Ripped from this thread.

 

Just get a different car man, damn... look beyond the H. There's another world out there.

The AWD integras are mated to a D series motor in Japan, so good luck adding a B series motor to that driveline.

The CRV is your best bet for doing the conversion, which would be a really cool conversion to see

 

how bout a turbo charged
awd crx

That Real Time AWD only came with a 1.6 soch motor...zc motor i think. I read somewhere that the AWD system couldn't handle any kind of major power..thus accounting for the 1.6.
