Nice! I've always wanted to see an 80's Nissan z31 300zx converted to mid/rear engine, would be slick seeing a nice done up engine thru the hatch glass
i love you! i´ve passed YEARS searching answers to my questions about this transformation and All Of Them you guys answered at 100 percent, plus in video, so we can see with our own eyes, wish you success in all your projects, good vibes and hugs from México
@@Ruined4banger @Ruined4banger hi sir my name is ali I want to ask you one question that the engine Block like 4 cylinder, V6,V8 or V12 build for front engine front wheel drive can also be used for mid engine rear wheel drive sir because you used front engine wheel setup chopped it of and installed in the mid engine configuration in Honda Civic but does it has all the subframe and shafts just like front engine to mid engine conversion well waiting for your humble reply thanks indeed
In the future, I really want to do this to my third gen Honda fit. You may be thinking “why the heck would anyone ever do that”. That is indeed the exact reaction that I’m looking for.
@@operator8014 honestly, out of all the cars I’ve driven, the fit is probably the most enjoyable drive. Handles like an absolute champ. Most people just can’t get over the looks and I don’t blame them.
This is like the most professional trailer park honda civic build ever. You know your shit yet the fab work is janky as fuck lol. I still give it 10 thumbs up.
Would this work for a 1985 prelude ex got it a while back and want to document the build it's super fresh and just want it to become a daily but would love to one day make it rear wheel rear engine with a barrar straight six I. The back but not to sure if that would work givin the fwd east to west seat up to inline rwd north to south love your videos btw from Australia so would love to make it 4x4 to hehe and make the front a sort of ute bay lol to have tools and storage
I’m not worried about someone stealing my car, but if you can steal my car, but if I teach you how the ignition works, you can steal any 90s model civic.
It’s hard to put a number on it but if you bought a running and driving car at $x and you had a hatchback shell at $x. There isn’t to much extra added in. Just the metal used to brace the subframe back in is the only real added expense
I honestly didn’t know that any honda offered that. I knew one of the Chevy/ford pickups offered it but had no idea. I don’t have the clearance for the turning with tractor tires but I have the rear rack incase I change my mind
It's super tempting to just move the entire front subframe to the rear, but that isn't going to work as you imagine. I could regurgitate what I learned, but just take the time to watch this video; th-cam.com/video/BRY2yi2Rcso/w-d-xo.html. I'm not trying to discourage this guy or anyone else from thinking outside the box, I want to do the same thing to a Focus, but we might as well know what we are getting into.
@@Ruined4banger I'll definitely subscribe for that lmao, I've got a suuuuper clean eg coupe that will either be mid engine or fwd LS V8 swap sometime soon. Almost made it into a Ute. I help build fully custom/restored hotrods
@@SuperDjwasabi hell yeah, I’ve been waiting on the dual LSX RSX. I don’t think he’s touched it in years tbh. Everyone thought it was photoshopped with just the front motor
you win the most janky build on youtube bro nice, its so terrible i love it
Cheers to that
@@Titantitan001 Triple cheers. Worst ever. As if designed to convince you to never do it.
Yes. I agree with this statement.
looking forward to a video driving a mid- engine car and explain the deference in handling after the engine swap
Nice!

Amazing proof of concept. Hats to you man. Screw everyone and there negative comments. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Twin engine civic should be your next build
I’ll spill the beans early, I have plans of running 2 motors, but I’m trying to enjoy it while it’s in this phase
4 wheel steering haha

"How much horsepower"
Owner. "Yes horsepower
The steering rack locked by welding to the frame made me so happy
Civic people are a different breed 😂
In the future, I really want to do this to my third gen Honda fit. You may be thinking “why the heck would anyone ever do that”. That is indeed the exact reaction that I’m looking for.
There's no logical reason to do a mid engine fit but why not? That's the reason I want to convert a civic ef in a mid engine rocket.
Well, a stock fit drives like balls, so it could only get better.

This is 💯 👍 great. Just get it done and have fun. Good work.
I am currently putting a 5.3 ls4 in the back of a Celica.
Love the build videos man looks sick
Probably my favorite build
I'm here I seen ur Facebook reel and I decided huh that does look like fun hahahaha
100% one of my favorite builds so far
Was there a mudslide through your shop?
Hi can you help me out please! I’m building a mid engine crx but I can’t bleed the clutch!! Was yours complicated to bleed?? Thanks
You just made the first golf rwd I’m Ireland thank you bro 👌🏻😂😂give me a year
this is unique i like it
This build makes me want to brush my teeth. And then take my car to a carwash
Rating: 9.5/10
Looks something Roadkill would have done, i loved it

My mind: Can it be 4 wheel steering some how?
"common knowledge" this shit is sick man!
Holy shit im first!!! Boss you gotta throw an engine in the front. It just needs to happen itd be a fucking unit
I’ll spill the beans early, I have plans of running 2 motors, but I’m trying to enjoy it while it’s in this phase
@@Ruined4banger sweeeeeet
I am actually thinking of mid engining a k20 honda accord for some sweet sweet one wheel burnouts thx for the info
im doing a project like this but ive decided to use an mr2 as the donner car.
so its basically a fwd but extended everything. ive been thinking all night long for my civic fd to be converted to ferarri kit car
Very good information
i want to put a honda v6 with a manual trans in the rear of my 99 celica. i think that would be sick.
Do you have or plan to Twin Charge one of ya cars ?? Could be pretty dope
Make one of these but with the integra🙏
Why dont you run power steering lines and a double size bajo bolt. Get that other rack going moster truck style
I want to do something similar but with 92 accord rip the back seats out and drop a V8 or I6 back there
4wsteering from prelude would be neat
Perfect thanks man
made to lift up front tires at start if engine behind rear wheels l wanna see that done on youtube. j
I wanna do this to my integra so bad
clean show car
You welded the rack and pinpoint!??
Steering rack - welded - not needed for RWD
Any plans of washing it?
I actually washed it for the first time a week ago. My most recent video shows that but I assume you were here primarily for the how too video
How can I do that and keep the AWD*?
Mad scientist
Bro worried about somebody stealing this lmao
I’m not worried about someone stealing my car, but if you can steal my car, but if I teach you how the ignition works, you can steal any 90s model civic.
Cool asf
V6 accord?
Your hose clamp buddy
👍👍👍👍
How much did this set up cost you?
It’s hard to put a number on it but if you bought a running and driving car at $x and you had a hatchback shell at $x. There isn’t to much extra added in. Just the metal used to brace the subframe back in is the only real added expense
@@Ruined4banger golden work bro 👌
Give it rear wheel steering prelude style
I honestly didn’t know that any honda offered that. I knew one of the Chevy/ford pickups offered it but had no idea. I don’t have the clearance for the turning with tractor tires but I have the rear rack incase I change my mind
@@Ruined4banger Yyup the old preludes were mechanical rear steering and the generation after that was hydraulic I believe
this is rear engine, mid engine should be in front of the rear axle
Everything is in front of the axles except the intake manifold. Considered mid engine
@@Ruined4banger any update on this project so we can see how the engine is mounted, and what is the change in handling after this swap?
Imago doing that with a Subaru wrx 💀
Is there any way to do this while keeping rear seats in a ek coupe?
But how does the tranny work?
🏋️♂️🛠🤟❤
Kswap??
I mean, you definitely could. But this is a b18b1
@@Ruined4banger lol I know I was asking if ur going to kswap it? Great video btw
Cam moves way to much for me.

I really dig it, but man is it sketch 😅
If you think just the build is sketchy, watch the next videos I post of it 🤣 I felt like I was 5’ in the air

O___O so... Creaky... And crusty
😂😂😂😂
This is the cringiest rat Honda I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen em all. 🏆
That thing is terrible
