Default A Honda Civic Yall Might Like...

My friend up in GA has been building this for a little while...

Said he had seen enough lowered..

It's a 1988 Honda Civic Wagon RT4WD

Yeah.. Real Time 4 Wheel Drive!

7" Lifted so far.. he has 29x8 All-Terrains Tires on it.. Not tall in truck world.. Huge in Honda Civic World..
Powered by a Supercharged SOHC 1.6 Vtec w/6 speed manual trans.




Thought you guys would get a kick out of it..

Mine is also in the works and is getting a 3 inch lift and 26 All-Terrain Tires

Pretty neat! How did he lift it that much? Alignment problems? Can he turn them tires with such high gearing and no torque? I doubt that supercharger is helping put out more then 200whp.

high gearing? i would imagine the 6speed awd ish would be considerable closer ratio compared to your normal long single cam tranny.
& @ 200whp its more hp then some small sized trucks & it prolly weighs a decent amount less. Im sure its fun to drive nothing crazy.

I was referring to the gears in the diffs.

The wagons only have a rear diff. Matched to the tranny. The trans. Has cv axles with a tail shaft. You can only suspension lift about 3 inches. He had to make a big body lift. As far as gearing it won't be super fast off the light, but he'll be able to turn them. With his mildly built z6 with supercharger.
