Also fun mazdas like mx3 and 323

>>14803220

In the same vein, the Tiburon and latest gen Celica should also have been RWD

The 323 came in AWD on a few variants though, right?

Which makes me wonder, since they share a lot of parts, would that AWD drivetrain fit an MX-3..?

Interesting thought mate, wanna look into it?

>>14803309
Not a fan of korean cars, but agreed. Tiburon looks sick as hell

>>14803652
there's enough of those around already

the downside would be
>less interior room
>less trunk space
>more heat
>less efficient
>no significant improvement in handling

it's an econobox and should stay that way.

>>14803659
I think the GTX and GTR versions were AWD.
Don't know if the GTR/GTX drivetrain will fit the MX-3 floor pan though.

>>14803165
yes
>riced
no

>>14803659
Well what do you know, someone actually managed to convert his MX-3 to AWD. Supposedly used a Familia AWD rear end and a GTR trans.

CRX Del Sol. Should've been transverse mid engined.

>>14803279
MX3 in RWD form would've just been that 1.8 K-series V6 slotted into a hardtop Miata. Which would've been amazing.

Interceptor model came in AWD. Its not RWD, but close enough

The SHO model comes in AWD too. Too bad it's auto only though.

>>14803652
it would probably be a solid rear axle if it was rwd so it wouldnt be cheap to make a missile

Because it's a rally concept. That's what RSX stands for. There are plenty of FWD rally cars.

I love MX-3's, I looked into an AWD swap and could only find some A-rabs who had done it. Couldnt find any decent info on it. That car handles so fucking well though, I learned to drive in one and nothing has ever been the same.

>>14805621
There's a couple for sale near where I live, I honestly want one more and more.

>>14805649
The only ones I've seen around aren't in great shape and they only pop up on CL once in a while. I got mine when I was 16 for 900 bucks. The dick who owned it before me had the clutch worn all the way down, the flywheel had been incorrectly resurfaced, and my rear axle was broken. Made the mistake of having my parents title it and they wouldnt let me keep it when i moved out. It's in a scrapyard somewhere now

>>14805668
That sucks, man. If I ever manage to get my hands on one, V6 of course, I'll make sure to post here.

>>14805684
I'll look forward to it, I still want to mod the shit out of one someday.

The del sol really should have been mid-engine rear drive, especially with the B16A.

>>14804750
The gtr is awd and has like a million miles worth of wiring to run just the awd.

Bruh no. Go look up RSX.

You always got the CTS and ATS.

>>14804815
Basically an IS300. More fun and more weight. Needs a larger engine and still understeers. It's not all roses as RWD. Especially when you want a functional vehicle.

There's significant advantages to FWD, especially for vehicles like the RSX and Celica.

Not that I'd own any of these cars but I wish the designers wouldn't have been retarded and put a fucking v8 in a FWD car.

>>14804983
Sold rear axle cars can easily drift. See: AE86.

>>14807224
FWD V8's are bitching though.

Cobalt SS.

better question is what car should justifiably be FWD

>>14807224
The entire W-platform should have been RWD. FWD in a car that's the size of a damn house is stupid as shit no matter if it's a V8 or not.

The set up of this car was all wrong. You and I and anyone with any sense looks at that chassis and thinks MR or at LEAST FR, but somehow Lotus ended up with a FF. It got it's lunch eaten by the Miata, a car much more similar in style and layout to the original Elan.

>>14803139
just face it. all fwd should be rwd

Too bad real Kadetts are RWD. FWD Kadett a shit

Toronado is cool because its a FWD

>>14803139
Second gen Prelude
Volvo 850

>>14804829
Pretty popular swap over Sweden. They put the T5 engine into a 200, 700, or 900 series Volvo.>>14804891

>>14809146
>It got it's lunch eaten by the Miata
That was because the Miata was cheaper, better built and more reliable. Most people who buy small convertibles actually care about FWD Vs RWD

Accord
Lexus ES
Some Audis should have a RWD option
Civic
Taurus SHO

It's amazing how wrong they got these cars.

>>14804829

Although I agree it would be nice as RWD, the 850 is one of the better handling FWD. Would have actually rather saw it with a reliable AWD system.
