Looks like RWD to me. Look at that tranny tunnel.

Everything looks legit, but Hona-Tech had a big discussion, actually speculation on that vehicle actually being a non-operating trailer queen. Who knows? If it is real then no matter how the car looks outside ( it isn't as bad as some of the stuff I've seen lately ) I still give the person who made that swap possible, if they could actually drive it.

I think that's an incredibly cool build. Take an econo-box and make a legitimate performer out of it. Hopefully he also installed quality suspension components so it can handle well... Someone recently did something similar with a Focus - taking the mechanicals from an '03 Cobra and dropping them in, well, dropping a Focus body on them. Of course, the base Cobra engine wasn't powerful enough so they bumped it up to 500/500... Talk about a sleeper! This one isn't quite so stealth, what with all those graphics, but still. A fast, rwd Civic! That's awesome.

you can throw all the suspension components you want on it, but that commuter car chassis going to do the twist more than chubby checker ever did on stage

As long as your completely stripping the car, what's a few more welds and braces? The Lancer is pretty flexy, but the Evo isn't...

from the info on the sign, it is a RWD, with an S2000 OEM rear diff. The tranny, engine, dash are also OEM S2000
