I bet that Civic is quite nose heavy, and understeers like a bitch. Just because you can, doesn't make it a good idea.

The key to a successful l67 swap lies in these instructions.

The bad thing is really the brakes. But he is still able to drive it everyday. And every good ideal always started as a bad ideal.

At least make the bitch RWD. That way there, the weight distribution can be more even, and NOT be nose heavy, and rid the Civic of the wrong wheel drive syndrome.

Swapping to a manual isn't that hard. But RWD.... yeah, not worth it at all.
