[@F3ST3Rfilms]

Makes me regret selling my mine. I was the first person in my area to slam a CR-V, '00 5MT AWD. First ever big project, had to learn all the quirks of the platform on my own, definitely a smiles per gallon car! I was actually getting ready and building up parts for a turbo build before someone offered me twice what i had in it. Need to snatch another one up before they get more popular as a platform. Amazing video as always David!

[@engineerisengihere44]

Fake patina is stupid though

[@Ogd5O5LO]

I think as unique ICE platforms get more and more scarce, first generation crossovers (CRV's Foresters, Suzuki Sidekicks, etc.) will become increasingly popular for tuners. AWD is tried and true, plus it was a standard feature. A lot of people have discounted that but I'm sure that's coming to an end.

[@Thinginator]

I've been thinking crossovers in general will be the next tuner platforms for a while now also. Same drivetrains as tuner cars in a lot of cases, and a lot of older car enthusiasts don't want them, so they're cheap and not in high demand. I could see a lot of young car enthusiasts starting out modifying crossovers in the future.

[@tarsan894]

I'll take a suzuki SX4 over the sidekick

[@bestmillimeter1858]

The AWD system on these are weak AF. Most people who made big power with these back in the day would remove the driveshaft so they wouldn’t blow the rear diff up.

[@swanginfleet]

​@@bestmillimeter1858That's the thing, you don't need big power. A turbo crv is not meant to be the fastest car on the road. It's different and fun as heck to drive.

[@engineerisengihere44]

​@swanginfleet thats funny you say that, because literally the only thing i ever hear honda guys say is "yeah bro if I awd swap and turbo mine i can beat anything on the road"

[@josephfranzen9196]

After blowing through countless piles of money on two STi builds, a guy in my car club brought me into the world of AWD Civics. It took me 5 years but we built an AWD EM1 Si (my favorite generation), at the moment we’re still fine tuning more or less everything as we literally finished it last weekend. I’ve always liked the B16, so for the time being I’m going to keep it, I don’t want to be one of those guys who puts his whole build sheet in a comment but even at 7PSI it’s a genuinely good time!

I’m a Honda guy from way back and since I sold my CRX I’ve been into building classic C10 pickups. I found a 99 CRV at a garage sale a few years ago with a blown engine and I bought it cheap and put a low mileage JDM b20 in it and it’s bone stock. It’s been my daily driver for 3yrs now. Unless I need to haul my big trailer my trucks just sit in the shop. You’d be blown away with all he stuff I’ve hauled with my CRV especially with the roof rack.

[@johnconstantine2754]

Those CRV's also had a folding table in the rear where the spare tire would normally go if it was not mounted on the tail gate.

[@ImWithSmeghead]

I regrettably sold my 1st gen CRV years ago, but I kept the table and still have it! 😂

[@fridayworm3898]

CRVs are getting more popular recently it feels like, super good to hear, I have a '99 with the 5MT at 300K miles on original motor and trans, thing is a trooper. Perfect 2nd car.

[@lordraiden5398]

Another point is the space. I have a 09 Forester X thats lowered with full suspension. We got snow today and I threw my snowblower in the back and did some of my friends driveways. Cant do that in most cars. This CRV looks good. Personally I would bless it with a good paint job.

always wanted to see one of these. i knew a girl that had one and after getting hooked on k swaps from the boosted boiz i always wondered why someone doesnt have a 1k hp awd crv. but really 400-500hp woudl be a good daily

[@972CHENZO]

I remember having a 100% stock looking 98 civic sedan and i stuffed in a b20b and s80 gsr trans. Still ran hubcaps n all lol. Bad thing about boosted b20's are they have thin cylinder walls so no high boost unless the walls are strengthened Also that crv has a really long arm throw because its not an upgraded shifter. Its just an extension. If you look at it, it just has a shifter lever with the cnc'd piece of aluminum with another shaft and shiftknob on top thats tightened down to the length they wanted it at. I used to have one in my old 2015 civic si

[@EastsideBodega_]

[@edwardcokley9224]

Gotta pay homage to where the awd drive phase actually started not with the Honda CRVs but a few years prior to the rt4wd wagon from the 88-91 bodies

[@swanginfleet]

Yeah and the original awd was much better as I'm sure you know.

[@TheFluffyWendigo]

I daily a bone stock 1991 Honda Accord with the F22A1 and a 4 speed automatic (no rust) she's not the fastest car I've ever owned but she's got a decent suspension. No ABS, traction control, or any drivers aides, but I enjoy driving this thing to its limits. Got a Stage II brake pads and rotors (drums in the rear) because I need to stop before I get to any power adders. It does have the electronic seat belts (with lap belt) and I've no intention of getting rid of this little tank. 84,000 miles and she's not going anywhere.

Had one for four years with a Orthia head and a bunch of other stuff. It was slow and the rear differential was sooooo weak and left me on the side of the road (temporarily) 3 times while having to take off the damn driveshaft because the U-joints snapped. Finally got tired of it and drove it around exclusively fwd until I sold it. Kept the driveshaft for my EG hatch 😂

Honestly a B16 head on your B20 is a great first step. You just have to run premium after but you get a noticeable boost in power. I off-road mine.

B20VTEC is a fool's errand, you need to build bottom end to rev past 7500 safely on a B20. It's 80% the cost of doing a K24 swap. B18b rods/pistons/turbo build 400 whp makes more sense.

David threw an Easter egg in this video, 5:17 is the sound clip in the intro.

[@ThatGuyinAnotherHatch]

Technically the holy grail is the civic 4wd wagon that came with a viscous coupler in the driveshaft, and a pretty much indestructible rear diff up to about 700whp. The crv awd system is actually kinda trash unless you upgrade them. S1 built makes lots of awd parts for them. To get the crv drivetrain to hold any power you need to upgrade and or lock the clutch packs in the rear diff and you need to run a coupler if you lock the rear diff. Which you get from the wagon or a freelander.
