it's against my better judgement, but i have some time to waste, so I will address this post
So I guess any knowledge in what would be a good swap.
just get a GSR swap
I was looking at a
jdm b18c type r vtec with 200hp and lsd tranny but also thinking of building a ls vtec
you can get an LSD on the GSR swap and still spend less and not have to tear out all of the high compression parts that make a Type R a Type R if you are actually considering forced induction
LS/VTEC builds are not for beginners if you want something that will actually have any chance of making power or being reliable
I haven't yet chose if I want to go with a supercharger or
turbo or maybe best of both worlds with twin charged
twin charged
if you have any intentions of going forced induction, put a turbo on it and call it a day, though at your power goals (200hp) there is literally 0 reason to bother
hell if you really only want 200hp out of this, then save a shit ton of money and just put a small turbo on your current D series and call it a day.
So I guess any thoughts or ideas on what would be a good
motor swap ? That can produce good horse power but still be a street car?
again GSR swap or turbo what you already have
Should I keep it fwd? Or go a conversion awd kit?
LMMFAO!!!!
why dont you just mid mount it and make it a mid engine RWD
seriously there is no "kit" to make a civic AWD
for what you would spend half-assing your way in to an endless project that will never be completed trying to turn a civic in to a twin charged awd car you could literally go buy an imported nissan skyline
if you want AWD and Turbo and over 200hp they already exist all over the place
get a wrx or sti or an evo or an older dsm or an audi or a VW r32 or a focus rs or......
