So someone told me today that it's a fairly straightforward project to convert my FWD 94 GT to and AWD. He said the chassis is the same, just need the drive train, differential and axles. Is this true? And if so, is it really that easy? I'm sure there is some info on the forums already, but couldn't easily find it.

Thats me... yep nothing bolts up, all custom. Didn't cost much though if you do everything yourself.
Also, I hate to talk bad about other member especially someone who i guess pioneered the AWD swap, but after doing it and seeing his build it's not done correctly. I would not recommend buying pipes car. The driveline angles are all incorrect, welds are more than questionable. It's one thing for him it's his car knows the ins and outs of it. Something breaks he can fix it. It's another to inherit the car. Like I said I really don't want to put down anyones work, he put a ton of work into the car, but I also don't want someone to buy something and not know what they're getting. -------------------- -93 Rx7, Turbo 6.1L v8, 725rwhp/760rwtq
