I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

crx with a mid engine and awd

Post by badass88gt » July 26, 2005

I know this guy through a friend of a friend. He took his 88 CRX, made a totally custom tube chassis, mounted his engine in the middle of the car, and made it all wheel drive. has a custom koni suspension setup where every little thing is adjustable. its insane. check out the fabrication:

looks crazy, Ive seen the one with the NSX motor in the back and the guy said it is impossible to keep on the road. Hopefully all this guys suspension work will pay off.

Uh..sorry, the CRX is rear-wheel drive only. Believe it or not, as it sits the car has almost perfect 50/50 weight distribution (using very primative testing techniques). Yes, that is an intercooler in the back glass. Setup might change to include twin turbos. Head work is being done by Endyne. Everything else is being done by us.
