i'm working on something cheaper for the teg, lude and sol, we converted an MX-6 to AWD a little while ago... its a matter of finding the right parts for the right price and its a ton of time, money and :bh (frustration)

not something for the average driver, or even racer, but something that i think would be sweeeeeeeet, since i'm a RWD freak...

but if you really want RWD, seriously consider getting a car that is already RWD

this is why i purchased a miata

It would be different but definately not worth the money you would be throwing down.

if i had a shit load of money id make a RWD teg for the hell of it. if u have the money why the fuck not??? ive heard of ZERO rwd tegs and a project like that would be sick to see how it turned out, given ure loaded and have money pouring out of ur ass. its honestly something id think about IF i had a grip of money and wasnt a party time server at a restaurant . thatd be pretty sick to see how it turned out

that is true

weren't you the one who said if you really want RWD, seriously consider getting a car that is already RWD?

It would be cool to have a rwd teg though.
