    hahaha, the EP has zero clearance for a drive shaft, or transfer case. I'm sure it can be done, but would cost way to much money. I've never herd of anyone doing it. Just people dreaming.

    Sorry guys, this isn't forza 2.

    how about just buying a decent CRV with rediculous milage on it.
    junk the body and transplant the EP3 body on it.

    it's a thought....

    there was something to do with the mounts i think...

    this is a major fab project any way you look at it, no bolt in here...

    if it were me, id pick a transmission that bolted up and did awd and then custom fab up some mounts and then do an all custom drive train back to a racing rear end...something heavy duty that i can fab up to...but then at that point id be considering doing a tube frame front end and tube frame rear subframe and just making my life easier than fighting with the structure honda gave me...but then again, i am crazy

    If I ever win the lottery I am going to make this happen. Otherwise, it's just a dream... but you know what they say, the power of dreams
