Eric,
Please submit clear, concise, enforceable wording that will speel out what
you suggest (u/b yes, but no drivetrain). We've tried. You participate in
the StreetTouring Yahoo group so you know how many folks have tried and
failed.
To wit, eliminate drivetrain swaps and I can still take an 89 Civic Si, and
ud/bd every piece of lightweight trim from the base model Civic to get
almost the same result as starting with the base car and changing the
drivetrain.
I suggest that anyone who wishes to comment on this proposal spend a bit of
time looking through the recent threads on that Yahoo group (StreetTouring)
to follow some of the thought process.
