Is it possible to take the AWD from the CR-V and put it on a CRX? If so, what all would be needed?

entire swap including all axles, transfer case, rear diff, etc. would not be manual though.

you cant use the crv drive train at all it wont work you would need to take the entire drivetrain from a honda civic wagon 4wd do more research it can be done but buying a 4wd civic wagon is the only way to do this swap

here is one for sale

Actually it can, why do you say it can't?

Will be looking into both options. I'm guessing the wagon will be harder to find than the crv.

there was a back issue of honda tuning where they did this years ago with a white DC. it didnt work out so good even though they put lots of money time and parts into the car. good luck. i would guess you would be better off using DSM parts or something.

this is why. i haven't heard of a manual CRV and finding a manual tranny from one if they existed may be more trouble than its worth.

invest in something else
convert a old car into something else, is it really worth it? maybe 1k more on the value?
