Nick works around cars?!

God help us.....

He got the swap done (he took out about $15k for wheels($2k and not that good looking), paint and swap), he had them put in a stage 3 clutch, then asked he my friend if he could learn to drive stick on his car. Which, Nick, was bragging about being lightning quick.... it's a mostly stock 89prelude si.

i was still working there when this came in..... i didnt see the outcome of the swap/car..... doubt they even dyno'd it because that would have required going to keenan's

saw the guy at a meet in NN and he said his rear diff blew or something.....
So it was an SL with a TT swap? or blown TT motor for a TT replacement? or SL -> AWD TT swap? And if he only got the front clip, where did he get everything for the rear?

So what was the point of all of that? If it was AWD already then it was a VR-4 to begin with. Did he convert it to RHD or what?

It was FWD, and still is FWD, just with a TT swap.

-from what I've heard.
