CR-V AWD Swap?

[Yangg]

Just out of curiosity, will the CR-V AWD drivetrain fit in the Civic 2019 Si? Couldn't find answers via google so I decide to ask here.

As long as you don’t mind a CVT.
The driveshat runs right out of the transmission, so it’s your only choice.
Then there’s the issue of adequate space for the driveshaft, fabricating mounts for the rear diff if it will even properly fit under the car, rear axle/hub interchange to sort out, rewiring the body harness & reprogramming ECM to run the transmission, reworking the exhaust to fit around all the crap you’ve added and probably a lot I’ve missed.
It’s nice to dream, but really expensive and complicated to actually make it all function together.

You'd be better off buying a crv and modding it.

so you want a slower, less fuel efficient, less reliable, unbalanced Si?

A lot of great sporty AWD cars available on the market right now.

Don't know what's wrong with Honda. We have Mazda 3, corolla, WRX and golf all available with AWD.

Idk man, Honda's FWD is almost as good, if not better, in snow or mild offroading than other awd cars in the segment. People who say its not, can't drive in the snow.

Completely agree.
Just because others in the segment have available AWD doesn’t mean it’s even necessary, just more expensive, complicated and harder on fuel.

AWD is far superior in getting the power down. A stock golf r can do 0-60 in 4 seconds flat! 1/4 mile in low 12s. Yes, the type r is better around a track. But I use my car as a daily driver, not the track.

Um no, high 12's is what all the car outlets tested it at.

Carwow did it in 12.3, car and driver did it in 12.5, motorweek did it in 12.5. So my reply to that is, "um no", low to mid 12's is what it's testing at. I am sure you'll see many different times out there, but the one thing for certain is the times it is capable of laying down is very impressive.

Carwow did not test the US spec golf R so try again. Motor trend got 12.8.

Go by whatever source suits your opinion. It's very capable. And, what's with the attitude? They're just cars, relax.

LOL it's not an attitude, it's helping the forum not get filled with a bunch of misinformation. The people that get corrected are the ones that usually need to relax.
