transmission questions

Ok I have officially come to terms with the fact that I need AWD. But the problem is Honda's AWD system sucks being passive and all. So I'm looking to convert my Prelude from FWD to AWD using DSM or EVO parts. If you guys could help me out and tell what parts are included in the AWD system for you guys that would be great. And also are DSM trannies hydraulic or cable? All this information would be very helpful. Thanks

Re: transmission questions

I have actually never heard of this kind of swap, I honestly think it would be cheaper just to buy a 1g awd then to fabricate DSM awd to honduh.

Re: transmission questions

No I'm actually planning on keeping my H motor just because I like it more at the moment plus I haven't seen this type of swap before. Also could you explain exactly what an adapter plate is? I'm still under the assumption that it's just a plate that allows the bolts to fit for both of them. Am I correct?

Re: transmission questions

umm, I have 10:1 odds saying its never going to happen. An adapter place is just that, it addapts one thing to another, in this case the bell housing to the block but I doubt you can get one for this swap. you are seriously better off just buying something AWD and not a Honduh
