Has anyone ever done an awd project? I was thinking you could use the tranny from the awd civics thay made for awhile. Would this work or even be worth the time? Let me know what you think!

Absolutely not. Cool, yes, but way too much effort IMO. The Civic undercarriage/drivetrain is pretty different from an Accord so it would be a whole lot of custom fabrication. If you have all the parts lying around, a shop full of machining equipment and don't mind putting the car out of commission for a while, by all means go for it. It would be sick to see.
I don't think the coolness factor would outweigh the headaches though.
i dunno.... an AWD K24 powered accord with a CRV drivetrain would be pretty cool... hope to show you how it works in ten years hahaQuote:

that civic awd drivetrain didn't last long and had a lot of problems. I wouldn't swap it in a car. :nuts:
if you're gonna do an awd swap do it from a subi... honda's awd is lacking in every sense.
for that matter don't do an awd but a rwd from an s2k.
awd Toyota drive train maybe ?
S2K drivetrain..... *drool* my friend found one for about $7000 near me a couple of months ago (if only i could buy it)Quote:

hmmm that sounds pretty cool and I read up on the civic it also only put somewhere around 10% of the power to the back wheels, so that along with what you guys told me, makes it a real no go! Plus, I dont got alot of money
:uh:
