im not sure on the RWD comment, but i meant fab vs kit. you could go buy the kit. or you could fabricate your own. thats a decison you must make.

arospeed22x: as silviadriver said, the kit is made by West Yokohama. i found a japanese geocities that someone posted S13s with 14 and 15 front end conversions, but i couldnt find a link to west yokohama's page.


cowboy: ah, not a drivetrain conversion but "car" conversion.

convert... not conversion. Meaning switching, or "converting" from driving a fwd car (the SRT-4), to the rwd 240... does that make more sense?

ok, wtf... who's crashing on the SRT-4? my comment on being a rwd convert is just a comment about a fellow driver switching to a rwd car. Seeing as the majority of race cars ever built are rwd I think here we can reach a consensus that rwd is the way to go if you want a dynamic race car with the exciting driving experience that is innate in a rwd car. I have nothing but respect for the SRT-4 'cuz face it, the thing's a f-ing monster. Can you name a faster car out of the box (no mods, 2003 or higher model year) than the SRT-4 for under 20K? I'm not crashing or flaming on ANYBODY here, read my posts carfeully. Sh*t I've never even BEEN IN an 11 second car, but really does that make me somehow less qualified to comment? I, like every other car guy out there, love the speed. I respect speed~ anything that goes fast. The closest I've ever gotten to 11 seconds was on a bike, my S14 isn't going to be running 11's ANYTIME soon. I got nothing but love 'n' props for ur Neon, especially if you've been able to make it even faster. In fact do me a favor before parting it out. Grab a camera and shoot a vid of the car smoking an Sti, 'cuz I can't think of anything more satisfying than watching a Neon beat the crap out of a WRX (I don't like Subeyz if u can't tell). Good luck on ur new project, have fun...

PHILLY.. hate our cars i guess cause no one can keep up you kno.. and on the rear wheel drive.. no question if they made my car in RWD i would buy it i would actually pay 10,000 more for it.. cause less mods then a sti takes to get power and also i can take it in still under warrenty haha. but i mean im running out..
