I've thought about converting my 92 civic into an all wheel drive car. I was looking under the honda CRV's and trying to figure out how high my car would sit off the ground if I was going to attach all that extra stuff on there. I'm not sure how much a CRV drive train costs, but I am sure it can be done.

The only good AWD you'll get out of your Sol is if you mount a second, synchronized engine in the rear. Honda "AWD" is a joke. We're talking 90/10 split, front-bias. It's not made to handle power at high RPMs nor is it made to stand up to clutch-dumping launches.

If you want AWD, buy something else. Now if you want RWD, here's a website that sells bolt-on RWD Honda Transmissions:
