    So! ya wanna turn your fwd car into 4wd?

    I only know about what it takes to make your 4wd stay a 4wd car, but I came across a fairly comprehensive build page by a guy who went and did it. This may be a repoast but I hain't come across it here, so for any and all that think they wanna take this route, here's how to do it, courtesy of Kevin who went and put a buncha GTX guts into a '91 Tracer. PROTIP: It ain't easy. Go find something that's awd already fercrissake.

    '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
    '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
