wow he did a really nice job.

Dreaming too small!

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).







.....'Course..... there IS still that itty-bitty problem with importing it. But we ARE in Dreamland aren't we?

I Have seen an eg hatch with an evo setup awd. Wish I could remember where though.......

 

[ryangt]

oh you saw an eg hatch with an evo setup huh?? And you didnt think that was amazing enough to warrent taking a picture or possibly bookmarking the webpage.
i dont think im alone in raising my bullshit flag on that

 

[fastacc]

Now you dunnit.... I guess I'll find a pic of the damn thing. Before I do, you wanna lay some money on it?

 

[fastacc]

hmmm

 

[fastacc]

next time you call bullshit, make sure you google it first.

 

[SlushboxTeggy]

next time you call bullshit, make sure you google it first.

No, we call bullshit then you present proof. That's how it works around here.

 

[ryangt]

concur , The burden of proof falls on the person who makes the claim as to what they saw.

 

[ryangt]

also if its real, thats cool. Am i alone in thinking that engine shot looks incredibly photoshoped?

i dunno, but i think it's a stupid waste of money though to make an awd hatch. who cares. with that same amount of money you could do a k-series. what a waste imo.

Found this thread via Google today, too bad its been dead for over a year. I'm gonna dig it up anyway =P

Knowing what I know now, you could do a swap for under 2k by using everything from an '88+ wagon. Granted knowing how to weld and being comfortable with cutting your car up makes things much cheaper, but if you did it all yourself it could be done for under 2k. I think its worth it, but then I'm a bit biased on the subject. =P

 

[klyph]

Are you the guy with the AWD del sol?

 

[INJEN78]

Tiger Japanese Auto Parts LTD Their JDM right hand drive vehicles aren't already here in north america? R32-R33 Skylines with RB26 powerplants go for ~$9,000.

 

[philyphreak2127]

hold up isn't there a 91 civic wagon that was awd from the factory? couldn't he use the parts needed from that?

 

[93civicracer]

I think it was an accord wagon.

I am indeed that guy.

I think its an EF chasis, 88-91 civic wagon 4wd, that had independant rear end which is what I'm using parts from. I remember someone saying the EF 4wd wagons had painted bumpers. There were earlier models that had a solid rear axle. I've seen '86 4wd wagons in the yards, but I think they went back as far as 84...?

Here's an 85 ->
