modify the justy? had to use a convo to add a new trany? Man what grade are you in?This lie has got to stop...........
that motor wouldn't fit tilted sideways let alone sitting flat...........now if you would've said an EVO8 motor and drivetrain than I would give ya a little credit, because I've seen it done with hatchbacks in Puerto Rico, Japan, and in the Phillipines. There are pics and videos out there.That is a crazy power to weight ratio, especially that they are all wheel drive................but with an WRX motor, you lost all credibility here......................yeah, on that H22 you can pull 1000 horspower with just a turbo like Steph, and pull an 11 like your friend yo...................don't forget the shopping cart wing.......gonna need somewhere to have the picnic.

ok so i have done some research and it seems to me that i can find a used B18C1 (GSR) for around $3000-$4000. i also found a price of $4500-$5000 for a B18C5 (Type R). Both prices are for VTEC Engine + Trans + ECU. i heard the B18c1 pushes out about 170Hp and i heard that the b18c5 type-r pushes out 210 Hp. anyone know any more about this? installation? actual test results? performance? anything?

I would like to see some pics of that civic myself. There are cheaper ways to make an AWD civic than to use the WRX. Best bet for an swap would be a B18c
