AWD crx question

[Honda_Road_Raptor]

I have been thinking it would be cool to make a Awd crx. Here is the question I have heard talk that there was a 80's civic wagon with awd and maybe you could make the 4 wheel drive system work on a crx body anyone know if it's true?? need 2 know asap

As in a direct bolt in? I hardly think so.

Third generation (1984-1987) Civic

A 3-door hatchback, 4-door sedan, 4-door "Shuttle" wagon, and CRX coupe shared common underpinnings. This included independent front control arms with torsion bar springs and a semi-independent rear beam with coil springs. However, the body panels were completely different for each bodystyle, with nothing interchangeable beyond the front bumper and headlights. Sounds 50/50 to me I have not clue if it can be done. That's why I want to try it. I know it will not be a direct bolt on 5 to 1 alot of cutting to make it work if it can be done

so I'm not seeing what your question is

[Honda_Road_Raptor]

Can it be done ?? Can a crx be maked into a awd useing a civic from the 80's ???

Better question then f20 or h23 motor for a crx?

[Pyrorocketeer]

yeah it could be made to have a subaru engine if you wanted to..... you can make anything work with time, and fab skills, and a little bit of money

IIRC the Civic wagon that was AWD was an 88-91 model.
