ok i know there is no way i have the funds or the patience to get it done but i was wondering what it would take to swap the trassmission and rear end from my grandmothers old awd civic into my 97 civic 2dr? or is even possible

A pain in the ass. And I doubt the drivetrain would hold up to too much more power over the stock engine.

Yeah, i have heard taht the drivetrains off the old school AWD civics cant handle much at all in the ways of hp.
