rwd swifts

i found this like on youtubehttp ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSV8h-9U-vk

It looks like it could be fun but how would i block where my front drive shafts fit.. Any ideas?

engine is probably in the back now.... or it is a justy with modified gearbox.

not sure on last as i dont know wether u can modify the gearboxes on them to make them RWD only?

Hi,

I was thinking of Justy, welded VC and take drive shafts out of front.
That will make RWD Swift looking car.

You look at this one.

seen that thread before epic rebuild, not much of the swift left really tho lol
still ace and wot a commitment.

I actully have a justy, and thats what i was thinking of doing but what could i put in place of the driveshaft to stop it p**sing oil everywhere.. thats the problem at the moment, thanks for all your input by the way.

Hi,

You have pot joints there.
FWD has inner CVs and outer CVs and in between them, you have drive shafts.
So if you take drive shafts out from both side and keep inner CVs you will have oil tight gearbox.
You will need to have VC welded as Justy box is not a permanent AWD.

I think that you would also need to weld the front diff as the spider gears 'may' explode.

This is untested, let me know how it goes lol

Haha youve just put me RIGHT off, i'll try when i have funds to buy a new box...then i'll let you know.

dont be put off, just weld the front diff

I'd try a suzuki carry gearbox it's rear wheel drive and it's a van so I think it would be heavy duty. It's a g13 bb engine in it so the bell houseing should fit the gti engine nicely

surely the suzuki carry has'nt got a transverse engine has it?

No sadly it hasn't so you'd need to move the engine round and proberly build a transmisson tunnel for the gearbox . that'll be fun

i think it would be easier to put a gti engine into a carry then make a rwd swift, carries can be fun

I'll agree on that one. that looks well fun, I bet you could piss one or two people off at the traffic lights with it too lol

I read about that in bazai not so long ago.. kei truck drifting, they use the suzuki cappacino engine in them...
