IDK. Its worth some investigation I bet. Sounds interesting enough that it could be worth some good old fashion fun on the streetNot sure if this has anything to do with this thread per se', but the idea i have tossed around is a C6 vette rear driveline, subframe, suspension, etc... Mated to a j series out front, (obviously the trans and rear end would have to be re geared to suit the j series power band better)... I wonder how that setup and weight distribution would work out...
I would never use a V8 in a Honda chassis. Too much weight. I use th eCR-V Transmission to transfer power to the rear wheels. I only utilized the Corvette C4 Diff and IRS to complete the build process ofr the car with Custom Ring and Pinion.If you're going to go through with all this work and effort, why a c4 v8 that is dogpile slow?
Your probably right but it can always be improved and strengthened within reason.Interested in this, I just hate the idea of using the CRV transmission. I feel like it's going to be the weak link in an otherwise pretty nice chain.
I love it.
but this 160 odd degree joint scares me a little bit...
why is that?I love it.

It's just a little scary looking I guess. certainly a weak point, no? weak may be a relative term...why is that?
This is outstanding. Simply an amazing build. Well done.This started as a personal build for a personal car until I opened my company in late 2013. Its a collaboration between Automotive Koncepts and Design's and Randy Payne Racecars to create the first Full time 4wd Honda and Acura Drive train swap kit with realistic streetability and affordability. We are designing subframe systems with QA1 Coilovers and a mix of corvette C4 and C6 components to customize the kit to me however we are designing it to also work for stock Honda and Acura brake systems to integrate the Corvette IRS.
