TRD Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Just wondering on how difficult it would be to convert a glanza to RWD, If i were to get an EP95 do abit of custom fabrication, do you think its possible??Enzo is the one who will clarify you on this topic. He actually owns an EP 95 with a 4EFTE lump in:) Everything can be made possible provided you have the funds and know how I guess Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 It's been done before, 4WD Starlet with the front driveshafts removed or something like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 going to say hasnt someone done this before lolwhy RWD it when you can have 4wd ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 ^^4WD car's bog down abit.. when setting off the line .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Geo is in the midst of doing just that too - I would prefer a longtiudinal engine/gearbox setup for RWD rather than having to go through a transfer case and its resultant losses Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Would be better with the engine in the back me thinks but i am biased Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sparky Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 haha need two engines in an R5 incase one breaks which it most likely willthey have bottom ends made out of cheese in them things hahaAs Riko said, best way would be to get a longitudinal mounted engine and RWD gearbox, prop and axle etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Indeed, I'm PRETTY sure a guy in New Zealand was doing just that a couple of years ago in a GT..I've seen a longitudunally mounted 4E-FTE before anyway, once in an Offroader (guy on AUSC), and in a KP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
