This guy does amazing work!

He rebuilt this CTR after it was totaled:

SWEEEEET! While I didn't do much research on the swap, I'm wondering why wouldn't he just adapt the AWD transmission?

Do you mean adapting the K20C to the CRV AWD Trans?

If so, he chose the K24 because of how cheap it is compared to the original FK8 engine and because the K24 is proven to be reliable with boost. He used the money from the sale of the K20C to fund this project.

Yes, adapting the trans.

But NVM, I get it. We older Californians are restricted by our mindset and gov't lol. That type of project voids registration here hahah
