there is a couple of people around here said it easy but i dont know them well and they act like they know every thing in the world so i would see if any one else would know about it ? if it is hard im not going to mess with it . the whole reason i want to do it is becouse my younger brother drives a awd dsm and thinks that dsms are the fastest cars so thats why i want to do the awd civic.

well I doubt a AWD civic wagon setup is gonna hold 400whp. If your looking to do an AWD setup looks mostly like your gonna have to customize your own setup and custom make everything. My suggestion is get a 4g63, put it in the civic, bolt up the tranny and tranfser case, get a CRV rear end, fab it up, get you a custom drive shaft, and get everything else (brakes, suspension, etc, etc) and wham you have an AWD civic. But me personally If it was me on this project, i would build a RWD, that civic on ebay had a legend motor in it, with the transaxle mounted in the back like a porsche. And it was turbo too.

well its a good idea, i think better than going AWD. Vicous couplings love to burn up over heavy load.
