I'm sure it's been done before by someone with a lot of time on their hands. It'd be real fun to drive tho thats for sure.

 

i knew what u were talking about with the engine being put back like the NSX but i'm still wondering about FWD and drifting for Civics. LOL

By definition, drifting is RWD-specific (or AWD if you know how to tune it). In a FWD car, all you can really do is powerslide. Anyone else ever seen a 4-door Skyline drifter? Holy crap...

 

technically you cant even powerslide, thats what the v8 A-holes do in parking lots to show off. like a burnout, but going in a circle. kind of a drift, but a good drift has all four wheels moving sideways. in a FF, the best thing i could think to call it is probably oversteering

 

haha. oversteering. that's funni. would there be any way to convert a FWD to RWD(even though that's stupid in my opinion and a waste of money...)?

not just a straight conversion. it'd be ALOT of custom work, but its been done a few times. hey Kappa, didnt you do a F20 in a civ?

 

I did indeed. My dad and I did all the engine/tranny/driveline installation, but the guy had to go somewhere else to get the underbody/frame/firewall modified (to fit the DS/Diff./tranny). He also got the rear suspension custom built and installed somewhere else (so the car showed up on blocks strapped to a flatbed). Then after that was all in, we had to re-fit completely custom exhaust pieces and weld out a system ourselves from other manufacturers' exhaust parts. We also got a gas tank off an S2k and had a machinist reform it to fit in under the car... It worked out nicely though. Overall, it's way too much work and money to put into a Civic... just go buy an S2k.

 

LOL.... man that's some work rite there. what kinda ride u drive now kappa?

Check the signiature...

I mostly drive the S14, but I'm building ANOTHER ZC 4G as well as resurrecting the DSM.

 

dude, does US sell S14s? I thought only Japan exports them? (just like everything else... 180SX, S13, Skyline, etc.)
