i was skimming through the forums and saw a topic on converting US spec celicas to all wheel drive using the all-trac drivetrain. i read that the possibility of the conversion working was slim to none. i thought it would be easier to convert it to rear wheel drive using the old jdm corolla(AE86) drivetrain. i was wondering if this was more feasible than all wheel drive.

Only there are little things called weight balance and structural integrity... which can be seriously compromised. C'mon people... wake up and smell reality. FWD is much better for driving around that is RWD... if you want something RWD... go buy one that already is. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
