Who said AWD? Tongue
Just cut of the front driveshafts and make it a RWD, just like they do in the D1. Wink

Anyway, that's why I asked: it did not really sound like you would go for the EJ while STi always be connected to the EJ in my memory... Must have played too much Sega GT I think. Wink

But I meant to illustrate that swapping AWD drivetrain doesn't mean you have to install it as AWD. Wink

update. my friend just totaled his s2k and has offered me the swap. I can get a great deal on it we are just waiting on the insurance company but that may be in soon. Just have to decide if that is the motor that was pre destined for this monster. maybe.

If the engine and tranny are still intact it sound like an offer you can't refuse. Wink

Seeing this steering wheel brought back memories of my first car! a Mk 2 Escort Wink unfortuately it was stolen and found torched... all that remained of the wheel was a blob of molten aluminium on the floor!

Nice base for a project - any updates?
