This thing is actually kind of neat.

Sure it has a KA, but let's assume it's healthy and slightly modded and makes an honest 135-140 wheel.

If the EG is a CX - it weighs all of 1800-1900lbs, it's pretty much got the same power to weight as an S13 with a stock SR. That's plenty fast enough to get into trouble and have some fun.

As far as Miata rear ends go, a good friend of mine has been BEATING the crap out of his car for as long as I've known him. Never had an issue with the rear end. Inversely, there was another kid I knew, 1.8 swapped, went to launch and broke something in the diff. My understanding is that those rears can hold 'reasonable' power if you don't launch/have traction....

Even if this Civic had a Veyron engine in it would still be a piece of shit Honda that would promptly need to be burnt to the ground.

this guy.....

zilvia, what do we do with him?
The 1.8 uses the same design as the fc rx7 but weaker housing. You can actually put the rx7 housing on the torsen to keep it brom breaking

Once I break mine again, for 8.8 is going in, fuck it

Plus I want a 3.03 gear

An F20c setup would easily cost 10x more than an average KA.. There is a good chance he even got the KA for free..
Expensive is an understatement, and the amount of work is unreal. It's not even almost as hard to do a rwd ka swap.

Power, reliability, ease of maintenance, and cost.

There is a reason why people choose to go that way.

If you don't understand why, then you are a fucking idiot.

But then again, we have one person named, fyneyoungstunna, and another named BoostSlideWayz.

Never have and never will bother..

Sure it may be more reliable

Sure its easier on maintenance cost.

But there is a reason i don't like it.... It's still just too common.... maybe im an idiot for not liking the same thing as you do.. Or maybe you'll be an idiot if you don't like something i do.

Regardless.. the fact your calling other users idiots for not liking V8 swaps doesn't exactly make you look to smart your self.

This is where you insert your smart comeback and we throw our smart ass remarks back n forth
