Default Convert to AWD

I want to convert my 7th gen civic to AWD. I've heard this can be done with the rear end of a toyota corolla with a few modifications. Any idea if this is possible, or how much it would cost?

For the cost.........it would be more effective to get like a wrx or evo and you would be faster

ANYTHING is possible with enough time patience and money..............cost i would imagine to be extremely expensive

i dont think its a good idea. of course it can be done. there is even a 6th gen 4WD civic in japan so your best bet would probebly get the drive train from that civic and find a way to put it in the 7th gen.

unless you happen to work at a specialty shop with a lot of money, time, and skilled engineers, its not gonna happen.

Can I cut the top off a civic and bolt on an S2000 soft top? Then take a propeller and drive off an Apache an make my civic a helicopter? Then take the jet of an F14 so I can have an afterburner? Then add the flood tanks and periscope off a submarine so I can go underwater?

Just kidding around.
