Convert Starion to front drive?

Post by MrBishi »

Can anyone tell me how to convert my Starion to front wheel drive? I want more power and economy.
Ideally I want Honda power (There are some damn good boosted VTEC Civics out there!), but I suppose I could use Cordia power.
Is there a kit available?

Your best bet would be to buy a complete cordia for $1 and buy a JB front bar for $600 and bolt it on.
Just tell everyone that it is a Starion with a FWD conversion... JPC can hook you up with some Starion stickers for that genuine look.

As for the honda power jump on eBay for a couple of V-TEC badges...

It should be a sweet ride when your finished... Let me know how you go. :wtf:

I'd also like 500hp in 8 weeks. Is this possible with nitro-methane or direct LPG injection? I am planning to port the stock inlet manifold and fit a T88.

Do Honda Vtecs come in SOHC? SOHC is teh best!!
Thanks for your help guys. I'll start work tomorrow. Does anyone have a gas-axe I can borrow?

I'm sure all the front-runners in their relative motorsports field, are those that think within the square :roll:

If I change my mind with what I'm doing, so be it, build a bridge and get over it :wink:

If you only knew that this joke of yours actually cuts right back at you without you knowing :wink:

Till next time :beer
