Hey guys, I love my 6th gen.. I also love rwd. I think it would be cool to transform my 7a into a rwd monster. Has anyone ever attempted to do this. My plan is to convert it and swap a 4agzte in there with a goal of 275 rwhp. This is a plan I am doing to start working on in about a year so I'm preparing my drawing board. As of now, I am swapping in a 4agze over the fall and winter for next spring.

QUOTE (cjh4l22 @ Aug 9, 2009 - 11:39 AM)  playr158, what about a mid/rear engine swap...? pretty sure with a hatchback there's enough room, you'd need to fab a new firewall, move the gastank (fuel cell up front?) and probably use gt4 rear suspension pieces but i'm thinking its possible... There probably is enough room, but like you said a new firewall to seal the front of the car off from the rear would be needed. and the GT4 rear would not work. The most probable way of doing a mid engine swap is taking the entire front suspension/kframe/control arms ect. and fabricating them to the rear. this is how the honda peeps do it. http://www.team-integra.net/forum/display_...;TopicID=106670 |
