the chasis are totally different, might as well just drive a 4ws prelude with an h22 swap.

The supension arms on the preludes are more complex than he ones on the civic. Just look and compare visually and you will know.

Different chassis=probably not.

Of course, everything is possible with the right amount of cash. BUT, the 4WS was designed for a car with a longer wheelbase. The results of a swap could vary from a lttle squirrely to downright dangerous.

no reason to do it,even if it were even remotely easy.if it were actually an advantage,many more cars would have it.
