its going to be a very expensive procedure.
so to answer your question completely correctly. Yes you can convert to AWD, but you need a very experienced shop, you have to cut away the floor pan in the rear, you have to fabricate a rear subframe in part. It is by no means bolt on. 10/10 on the difficulty scale It would be more cost efficient to find a GT-4 and put a curren front on it. Or 3sgte swap the curren in FWD. |

It cost a lot here in the US as well. A few attempts have failed here. > please guide There is a search button available to search for information. There have been several 2-3 conversion that have been completed. AWD, conversion; ST205.... > looking for all the info and help i can get.thank you. Look for "Celicaman05" He completed a swap. Several others are following in his example. http://www.6gc.net/members/3517 (He sold the car, but his info is still on the board, don't know if he will answer questions ? ) Plenty of information on this board. But no one is going to do All the work for you. A lot of dreamers come on the board too and think it is easy. They give up after they see how hard it is. I wish you luck ! Regards; |
