I'm interested in putting a b16 or b18 engine in a 86 crx si and convert it to a awd. Is this possible and if it is post your thoughs and any advise that you can give.
Thanks.

get_nick · 09-17-2006, 02:57 AM

anything is possible with enough money. it's not worth it though. it's too hard a will take a lot of fabricating. be prepared to get flamed for posting this because there has been a lot of unrealistic posts lately. and this classifies as something that is irrational. but i'm being nice. good luck and i hope i could help.

ROLI · 09-17-2006, 03:10 AM

Well I heard of a integra and a civic that were converted to awd so it would seem to be possible.

MXDesa · 09-17-2006, 08:36 AM

Of course its possible, but the people that did those have lots of engineering skills and money, or they hired someone that did.

its very possible there is a guy in our home town running a 90 crx si with a b18 supercharged with a subaru all wheel drive set up, needles to say its very very fast has the grip of a indy car.although he swapped out one of the gears in the tranny and had a special bell housing made to accom the tranny. it costed him 3300.00

klyph · 10-03-2006, 04:01 AM

well, while we're in fantasy land, I'd fab in components off a CRV, that way it'd all be honda. and it would give you a sweet suspension lift to mob that CRX baja style!

why not buy a mirage? you can swap the EVO drivetrain in and still be under 10K ~270hp AWD.

Don't lie. Supercharging a b18 alone would cost $3,300. And I'm damn near positive that a Subaru AWD "set-up" costs more than that, not to mention the fabrication and install. You MIGHT be able to do that for $33,000. But idk, do those setups even spin the same way? Shut up and go home.

ryangt · 10-07-2006, 09:26 PM

shit for that matter go get an s2k engine, tranny and driveline, make the bitch a rear wheel drive drift monster crx, now that would be sexy... probably cheaper too.

vtecsir1 · 10-07-2006, 11:19 PM

there was a guy in canada that did the crv awd system in his crx. i havent seen that thread in ages though.

Honda-Tech.com: AWD CRX del Sol - CRV driveline swap

Hope it helps

d17type-R · 10-08-2006, 06:40 PM

Just say "SCREW IT" and buy an R34; after all, anybody that owns a car that only got beat out on the Nurburg Circuit by a Porsche 911 Carerra C2, has got one smokin' hot car. Doesn't hurt that it looks damn sexy and you can boost the snot out of said "unburstable" inline-six (BNR34).
