i know it wouldnt be easy but would it be possible (without spending $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) to swap the aw-drivetrain into a civic/crx??? cuz THAT would be badass!!!

 

hmmm..... ive always wondered how much of the cr-v's awd drivetrain would bolt onto the 5/6g civic chasis. obviouly, you would have to make room for the driveshaft and rear axles.... but someone should try it!

 

the real fun of the 4wd wagon is in the winter with snow tires its almost unstopable. I like going in empty snow sovered lots and doing my drift impressions. My only regret is that some parts are not available same day and the parts guy saying there is no 4wd civic. I am still wondering what car it shares calipers with and no they are not the same as other civics. The rotors are different too as are the struts and corner lenses.

 

if i remember ill look into it at work tomorrow for ya, im a parts guy

 

hey this is kinda exciting. i really wanna get one of these and just play around with it. i have a turbo i could slap on there. hows the 6spd tranny? why did they use six gears? is it extrememly short or something?

 

It's basically a five-speed with an extra very low gear (called "Super Low"), kind of like the low range on a 4WD truck. Good for climbing hills.

 

does it use the same final drive components as the other EF D trannys ? for instance, toss an HF final drive in there and then have a nice and low 2nd gear for the autox while still being able to do 135mph w/o spinnin' the piss out of a Z6 ?

 

wow i remember making this post like 2 years ago. way to bring a thread back from the dead :goodjob:

 

There's a performance mag that's workin a AWD teg isn't there? You could possibly follow the guidlines of their install for a civic couldn't you?

 

you'd rather i started yet ANOTHER awd civic thread ?

as for some rag workin' on an AWD teg, civic, or crx, it's nothing new

anyway, back the question: gear ratio's for 6-speed EF RTAWD wagon, anybody gots ?
