its only partially awd. its the same system from the crv. meaning its fwd until there's wheel spin. then i t can send some of the power to the rear. even if it was locked (or welded) in the center. both front and rear diffs are open. thus under extreme conditions its only 2wd. but this is the world of awd vs 4wd vs 4x4 vs realtime awd
Johnny Salvattore well the way the crv one works is that it has an output shaft going rearward out of the transmission, then at the the rear diff theres a viscous coupler. when both front and rear are moving at the same rate, the viscous coupler isnt actually sending power to the rear diff. but when theres slip in the front, the coupler binds and sends power to the rear diff. im not sure how this one is done. but most awd civics ive seen make use of the oem awd parts from the crv's awd system. if you find out more info on it id love to hear it. thanks man.
There are plenty of Honda's running 8s... The holes in the bumper help promote airflow on the drag strip, the bumper is a huge air-trap when going down the quarter mile. Evos and STI's are excellent cars as well, but you have to admire the hard work and customization that went into this beast. Honestly, I don't care what make a car is, as long as it's fun to work on and drive.
Thank you. Just to add some info, theres not an adapter plate in this build. U mention your self, Honda does have some AWD cars so we used what honda had already done. I cant imagine us trying to re-invent the wheel. That would of brought us a BIG pain in the ( I ). Hopefully we can finish a Plug and play kit for all of friends who share the same pasion for tuning...
you shift not at the rpm level, but when your tires have spun thru the gear at highest mph for the gear. if we all started shifting when our wheels spun at hit rev limiter, id be in 5th going 60mph lol. dont be a dweeb and learn to drive. rev limiter is your friend, especially in circuit racing when you dont wanna up shift because a corner is coming, stay pinned and then downshift. every raced a motorcross bike? same thing
omg i went from honda to evo cause i thought they were better looking and now i want this honda!! hondas are truely the canvas of the honda world you can do absolutely whatever you want!! this proves it, iv seen rwd civics, awd civics, 1000hp civics!! honda did not expect civics to go this far...
The crv is FWD until the diff senses that the front wheel speed is different to that of the rear. It then engages the clutch pack in the diff to run 4WD. Its done by oil pressure and is similar to that of a clutch pack in a CVT gearbox :)
This is by far my favorite video on youtube. Your car is fucking gorgeous, and the music is awesome, but I don't know the name of it. I've been replaying the video for hours to hear the song, and as well to hear your car. Sweet video.
yes. Luckily other than time there wasnt much we had to spend. We are a local auto shop and that made it easier. We've done K, B, and D series AWD but this one is our baby.
You did good sir well built. And for those who don't understand saying similar hp rated cars getting better than 10's - ever think that gear ratio is ALSO another factor in the whole equation? (Not just motor output)
a dude wanted to own an sti or an evo, couldnt have modded one so went on this way, put awd and turbo on then put some stickers on to convince himself that he is living his dream. nice work tho
Just like i said before, under 10 is not a problem for this car. it's not running any close to full potential. You gotta understand that this is daily, full interior and whole nine yards. Another thing is, elevation. Our town is way up in the sky compared to sea level cities which makes it much easier to blow a motor due to lack of oxygen...
Every single Type R from Honda is a track oriented car... Their FF platforms are some of the most fun you can have with an FF on a track because they are well balanced and not just loads of excessive power. Think before you write.
I can give a shit how much HP a car has, so long as the suspension is immaculate and the car handles like its on rails... Seen too many "fast" cars in the twisties lose it in the first turn while the tortise stayed the course...
I ran with my EK 1997 b20 vtec, ebay turbo kit ,fwd with 325hp... 11.56 @ 119 mph 1/4 mile ! That EG is a milk truck ! Haha ! I forgot to write! Is a 1997 EK coupe ex !! Full chassis,full power, a/c, p/s,stereo!
under 10 is not a problem for this car, the way is setup it's not runing at full potential. You gotta understand that this is daily, full interior and whole nine yards. Another thing is, elevation. Our town is way up in the sky compared to sea level cities...
Man you nailed it. I wish i could keep this comment at the top. Everyone thinks we invested a lot of money on this when in reality it was more research than anything. It's all logic and im not sure why people dont use it. Great comment my friend, you know your shit..
i love all the hater comments.... whoever is that worthless obviously drives a stock thunderbird that was giving to them by their uncle.. or mommy and daddy gave them eveything they have ever wanted so they cant learn to respect such a masterpiece of a car. this vehicle is a small step for the haters and a huge step for all honda fans.
I believe some honda crv's are all wheel drive with k20's but i'm really shooting in the dark on that info. You would need to make that subframe mate up to the shell of whatever you're going for. A lot of cutting and welding for sure. If you can do your own fab and have the money to blow go for it.
You said it man! Why can't people stop with the endless pissing contests and just appreciate cars?? I don't care what badge is on the hood!! If it's a fast car, it's a fast car!! It gets my respect! Done!
All these ass clowns saying he could've bought this or this car is better. You lose sight on being original and having something that is outrageously built. Props to the owner and the builder. In car sense it's a crazy civic. In any other forum this is a beautiful piece of art.
Damn all these people hating. Who cares what the name plate on the car is. At least you have a car guy doing some cool shit instead of talking about what they'd like to do. Good job artisticstop.
This car is a work of art anyway you look at it. Out of the normal everyday BS! Way better than an evo or sti. The only thing that separate an evo or sti from a civic is a turbo and awd. Hondas are better built and solid. Motor wise... not built for boost off the bat. But with 15-20K on top of a fairly new si or base civic... you have a monster that out performs an evo or sti in every way. Better built than bought. At least you know what to expect. Just a little 2 cent wisdom.
i get ya point.. yea turning decent long lasting fuel saving cars into fast ass light rockets that eat american muscle for half the price is pretty dope
I ran a turbo b20 with a perfect tune for a long time red-lining EVERYDAY till i sold it, the guy who bought though it would be cool to change the map i had and end up blowing the motor 2 weeks after i sold it to him...
2 years and car still runs strong, no problems whatsoever. I agree with you, OEM parts do wear much faster but i think sometimes OEM parts are better than any aftermarket part. Why do you think all this Vtec wannabe jockeys run their stock setup for days without problems? as long as you do it right thing (tune, parts, maintenance, etc...) and something very important you gotta know its limits car shouldnt give you any problems.
I mean not bashing on the car or anything, it's a badass car. But for an AWD build, I would love it more if there were shots of this car in action other than on a straight line. :D
i agree with u oem parts ate mostly better then aftermarket, but oem parts also can have a much lower weak point. well running a car with a stock setup while ok for some like u said a lot of variables come into play for reliability. not to criticize your setup but im over 400 hp on my evo took a lot of money to set her up right, and while her oem parts are strong oem parts are not invincible..
Ok enough teasing now get to posting the part list and what drive train you used...craddle...drive shaft...axle dimensions...how you fabricated mounts if even needed ect ect ect so We can start converting out civics as well ! Because Ive been dying for a bolt up set up with minor fabrication write up to be published !!!!! If i could fuse my DSM and my Civic Lord have mercey ! I think i Bronchitis ! Aint no body got time for that keeping secrets!
Video starts at 3:42 skip there. I just saved 3 minutes of your life.
seriously
Don't care what anyone has to say or how F'n fast it is 0-60 ext. . This thing is bad Ass!
Mad respect for who brought this beast alive
Its not every day you see a respectable Honda civic build, well done.
AWD K20? That's one bad ass civic.
Loving the AWD......
its only partially awd. its the same system from the crv. meaning its fwd until there's wheel spin. then i t can send some of the power to the rear. even if it was locked (or welded) in the center. both front and rear diffs are open. thus under extreme conditions its only 2wd. but this is the world of awd vs 4wd vs 4x4 vs realtime awd
neverknows best I don't think so.. it's true awd, I have talked to the B&C performance myself, they even sell an awd kit.
Johnny Salvattore well the way the crv one works is that it has an output shaft going rearward out of the transmission, then at the the rear diff theres a viscous coupler. when both front and rear are moving at the same rate, the viscous coupler isnt actually sending power to the rear diff. but when theres slip in the front, the coupler binds and sends power to the rear diff.
im not sure how this one is done. but most awd civics ive seen make use of the oem awd parts from the crv's awd system.
if you find out more info on it id love to hear it. thanks man.
neverknows best this isnt crv runninh gear. Stfu with crv stuff. Makes me wanna shit.
noobgamingok oh so what IS it from ?
You're not missing anything until 3:30 except for a quick shot of the underside and annoying music...and then it's done at 4:00.
There are plenty of Honda's running 8s... The holes in the bumper help promote airflow on the drag strip, the bumper is a huge air-trap when going down the quarter mile. Evos and STI's are excellent cars as well, but you have to admire the hard work and customization that went into this beast. Honestly, I don't care what make a car is, as long as it's fun to work on and drive.
Now thats how its done. I knew someone would eventually do it. Instant favorite
that dubstep was unbearable...i had to mute it then turn on my dubstep lol
Please get another editor next time.
LMAO at the AEM fuel rail that has "AEM Fuel Rail" etched into it. Branding cracks me up sometimes.
Thank you. Just to add some info, theres not an adapter plate in this build. U mention your self, Honda does have some AWD cars so we used what honda had already done. I cant imagine us trying to re-invent the wheel. That would of brought us a BIG pain in the ( I ).

Is it a rule that all civic drivers must bounce off the rev limiter?
I always ask myself this. Lol! Maybe it's to get more speed? Or something. Idk
In this case (rare exception) Its activating the antilag system.
all vtec motors get their power off high revving
Well most motors in general do. But when you're bouncing off the rev limiter you're no longer accelerating. Respect on the build though
you shift not at the rpm level, but when your tires have spun thru the gear at highest mph for the gear. if we all started shifting when our wheels spun at hit rev limiter, id be in 5th going 60mph lol. dont be a dweeb and learn to drive. rev limiter is your friend, especially in circuit racing when you dont wanna up shift because a corner is coming, stay pinned and then downshift. every raced a motorcross bike? same thing
why is everyone complaining about the audio?....must have some shitty speakers or sum....lol
i agreee though..intro is way too long...edit the pulls into the video a little better and it wouldve been a solid mini clip
M-Audio BX8s . . . doesn't matter how good the speakers are if it's a "Chopped and Fucked" Remix of some top 40 crap.
ikr, i think the audio was great. i love this song
jmialma09 what song is this I heard it somewhere
Darryl MN song is by Frente
I watched the launch 20 times, I need this in my life
omg i went from honda to evo cause i thought they were better looking and now i want this honda!! hondas are truely the canvas of the honda world you can do absolutely whatever you want!! this proves it, iv seen rwd civics, awd civics, 1000hp civics!! honda did not expect civics to go this far...
But in the end, it's still a Honda.
but in the end , still gonna have more hp then your car will have
Hahaha so fucking true!
but in the end, bananas.
But in the end, where's your built car?????
In my garage...
Might not be the best thing in the world or cost the most money but dosent matter
@camrsaro a stock K with a tune is about 220 hp, 250 with bolt-ons & about 300 mildly built. so a 530 turbo k sounds about right.
Video is awesome everything goes very well wouldn't have presented that beast in any other way .
The crv is FWD until the diff senses that the front wheel speed is different to that of the rear. It then engages the clutch pack in the diff to run 4WD. Its done by oil pressure and is similar to that of a clutch pack in a CVT gearbox :)

crazy build yeat at 3:44 I geeked out about the clock
I would love to build this exact car but in a sedan with a J35 TT setup, but this is amazing as well, props on your build.
yes. Luckily other than time there wasnt much we had to spend. We are a local auto shop and that made it easier. We've done K, B, and D series AWD but this one is our baby.
You did good sir well built.

a dude wanted to own an sti or an evo, couldnt have modded one so went on this way, put awd and turbo on then put some stickers on to convince himself that he is living his dream.
nice work tho
That just blew my mind... probably one of my favorite eg's i have seen man!!
I THINK I JUST FELL IN LOVE
Holy shit balls! I would love to have this setup in my '89 Civic Wagon!!! Beastin!!!
Just like i said before, under 10 is not a problem for this car. it's not running any close to full potential. You gotta understand that this is daily, full interior and whole nine yards. Another thing is, elevation. Our town is way up in the sky compared to sea level cities which makes it much easier to blow a motor due to lack of oxygen...
Got to see this thing at winters warm up. Real legit.
sounds sick it sounds like a wrx and a rsx at the sametime
rear diffuser keeps air from getting trapped in the bumper so you can go fast faster. and the other is a tow hook
Every single Type R from Honda is a track oriented car... Their FF platforms are some of the most fun you can have with an FF on a track because they are well balanced and not just loads of excessive power. Think before you write.
@artisticstop Major props! Keep up the good work! One of the best I have seen yet!
I can give a shit how much HP a car has, so long as the suspension is immaculate and the car handles like its on rails... Seen too many "fast" cars in the twisties lose it in the first turn while the tortise stayed the course...
I ran with my EK 1997 b20 vtec, ebay turbo kit ,fwd with 325hp... 11.56 @ 119 mph 1/4 mile !
That EG is a milk truck ! Haha !
I forgot to write!
Is a 1997 EK coupe ex !! Full chassis,full power, a/c, p/s,stereo!
David Mendoza my ass.
Run my fwd 98 pontiac grand prix gtp with upgraded pullies bored out supercharger cams and injectors? lol makes 432hp on dyno with 240 fp of torch.
Quarter mile please..!
Not bad!! Would definitely like to see how it handles in the snow...
it allows the air to flow for their wont be any drag. its basically for aerodynamics
good shit! props to the builder... my boy is trying to do this to his eg6 but on a LSV he is going to use a cr-v set up.
If Civics were AWD from the factory I would totally get one of these. I love my V8's but god damn, an AWD civic is just bad ass. I do like.
Lol at the guy dissing the 10.7. For a civic hatch on a 1/4 mile, thats badass.
It's fast enough to have whatever title it wants.
Epic "budget Gallardo"!!!
I salute you good sir, because you are a gangstER!
we've done EKs before and actually we have one for sale ready to go at our shop.
BRING ON THE EVOs and SUBIES! Don't know if your AWD systems are perfected enough to compete but I'd love to see what it could do vs them.
This is the baddest fucken Eg in the whole bloody world. Hat's off to you sir!
under 10 is not a problem for this car, the way is setup it's not runing at full potential. You gotta understand that this is daily, full interior and whole nine yards. Another thing is, elevation. Our town is way up in the sky compared to sea level cities...
10.1 so far, check more recent videos. This car is very much still alive and making it happen.
Man you nailed it. I wish i could keep this comment at the top. Everyone thinks we invested a lot of money on this when in reality it was more research than anything. It's all logic and im not sure why people dont use it. Great comment my friend, you know your shit..
Nice setup! I want my del sol like this.
its either a crv rear frame or ef rear frame the crv is a civic just streched out to look like a suv but its all based on the civic
Reno. That Komatsu dealer is in Sparks near Glendale ave.
song is awolnation - sail (omega dubstep) version. thumb it up so people don't have to ask.
This car is a MONSTER!
Nice, respect from the other side of the honda vw rivalry.
Awsome car, awesome song I give a 5 out of 5. Plz keep new videos on it.
Anymore videos?? everyone is dying to see more of this hatch!! :)
i love all the hater comments.... whoever is that worthless obviously drives a stock thunderbird that was giving to them by their uncle.. or mommy and daddy gave them eveything they have ever wanted so they cant learn to respect such a masterpiece of a car. this vehicle is a small step for the haters and a huge step for all honda fans.

Very nice car, looks insanely fast.
Nice build brother no criticism on my end beautiful daily with a smart tune :D no one is gonna be able to roll up next to you disrespecting!
depends on what setup you're trying to go for.
song is awolnation - sail (omega dubstep) version.
love the sleeve adjuster on the tow hook lol
You said it man! Why can't people stop with the endless pissing contests and just appreciate cars?? I don't care what badge is on the hood!! If it's a fast car, it's a fast car!! It gets my respect! Done!
Amazing i love the originality. Good job guys
i am by no means a honda guy but finally someone AWD one!
Good job I'm thinking of the same conversion from the old wagon but w a b18c
Clean set up .ride height is perfect to
mad respect. that civic is badass.
All these ass clowns saying he could've bought this or this car is better. You lose sight on being original and having something that is outrageously built. Props to the owner and the builder. In car sense it's a crazy civic. In any other forum this is a beautiful piece of art.
Damn all these people hating. Who cares what the name plate on the car is. At least you have a car guy doing some cool shit instead of talking about what they'd like to do. Good job artisticstop.
Damn! That thing must be a blast to drive!

Saw this at the track runs like a beast
Wow edited out the launch. Great job.
song title is, AWOLnation - Sail (Omega Dubstep)
yes sir, combination of parts from the Honda SUV family.
about the only way to really put the power down with a civic! Nice vid
Lucky guy! I want one so bad! They definitely don't grow in trees where I live though. Hard to find classic soccer mom racewagovan.
it's called sail, can't remember the band, but their on red bull records
Nicely done. I wish my acura was all wheel drive
sigue siendo una verguilla con todo y el awd..
I ran a turbo b20 with a perfect tune for a long time red-lining EVERYDAY till i sold it, the guy who bought though it would be cool to change the map i had and end up blowing the motor 2 weeks after i sold it to him...
the original song is sail by awolnation
whats song title? this car is a work of art. i cant begin to imagine how many hours of labor, the imagination of it. Insane!
depends what kind of set up you're trying to go with. b series turbo can get you those numbers without breaking the piggy bank...
DAME THATS A FAST CAR MAN CONGRATS BRO
Dear Honda, I hope you're seeing this because, WE WANT!!!
I like how the jumps to 40 right the way

Well at least you did one thing right in this video. The music.
Thanks this song is BEAST
