OK, I've searched the board, the faq, and google and come up with nothing (at least not in English). Is there an AWD 3rd gen Familia or 323 (BJ chassis, I guess the generation is different)? If so, how much of the drivetrain/floor pan does it share with the US 3rd gen? Basically, how possible is an AWD conversion?

They made an AWD Sport20 for sure. Caretaker on this forum has one IIRC.
From just seeing the pictures of the rear suspension, you'd need a whole lotta new stuff. I'm assuming the floorpans are the same. Correct me if I'm wrong here.Clint/1999 "Sport20"

Also, check out this thread for a lot of information from someone who's already working on it.

Yes, the Sport20 was only in wagon form. As far as putting it on a sedan, there shouldn't be any forseen problems. The suspensions are the same.Clint/1999 "Sport20"

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he how in the name of charity and good will shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper, and the father of lost children. And I will strike down thee with great vengeance and furious anger, those who attempt to destroy my brother. And they shall know my name is the lord when I raise my vengeance upon them."
