[DasPoop]

Those models civs are everywhere up here in MT

Wes has a RT4WD 1.7 Z6 with a Crower 2 NA cam and an Evo8 turbo, and his brother has a 2WD caged version with a sleeved LS/VTEC and 60-1.  The 2WD has Skank9 1000lb springs and a complete suspension under it that is the smoothest thing I have ever been in - full throttle or transitioning to closed throttle from power, in straights or in curves, it just feels smooth and stable.  Very nice.

[Gold DA9]

all the ones i find around here are FWD or autos. all the FWDs were speeds and the one auto was RT4WD which my friends sister uses.

Good luck in your search.

Epic Tuning 400HP D16Z6 powered Real Time 4WD EF hatch

even if its not a wagovan it still shows that hondas awd it strong as hell

[Joseph Davis]

Strong as hell?  Not really.  They are weaker than DSM boxes and shift similarly to a granny four speed from an 80s Ford truck.

idk i went through 3 dsm boxes breaking the 2-3 shift rail the 3-4 shift rail and the transfer case output shaft in one summer(and no i didnt have wheel hop) and i was only putting down 384whp. they cant be weaker than that. as far as shifting after seeing the shifter epic tuning had there is no argument there

Learn to adjust your shift cables, replace your cables when they stretch, and observe that the "DSM" gearbox was designed for a 2200lb car and not the 3200lb cars they came in.  You broke a T-case output shaft, Wes has dropped whole gears and broken two cases and isn't even making 300 whp at the moment in a 2400-2500lb chassis.

When you weld your center diff I found out that you need to run damn near solid motor mounts because the motor will cause the front wheels to spin just a bit different than the rears and i guess it put a bunch of stress on the t case output shaft. I have since sold the car and who the hell knows where it went. I sold it to some punk kid at my hs and from what i heard he blew it up seeing how fast he could get it to go

I passed up a rt4wd wagon the other day for 400. Pretty dam rusty though, I had thoughts of tprc2 so I ran away quick

stronger than you think...than even I thought!

Nothing like a RWD wagon, front axle openings were JB/devcon closed up.

[Joseph Davis]

Hah!  I need to see that, sounds like a veeeery interesting setup.

Did they keep or delete the viscous coupling?

Sounds perfect for getting abused.  Waiting to spot a deal like that in my area.  I'm probably going to roll it at least once if I get one, so rust isn't a big concern.

[highroller54]

If I could find a solid one I'd rock it anyday. If I had more room at my house I would stock pile shit like that for futer use.

custom 4" driveshaft IIRC.
