One of the chaps from the FCKP has completed RWD conversion. He used an engine from E36 325. Here you can see it drifting. Enjoy

Hmm saw the you tube vid... Very nice...

Can't seem to find the project thread..
help?

The thread is here. You'll need to scroll to page 4/5 but there is not many pics of the work he had done

Well...

That's interesting.,,
Where's google translate

The only photo i needed to see.

Oh, and he's on 19" alloys with 215/35 profile tyres.

I like it. I wonder who will be the first to do it in the UK? There have to be more than a few condemed shells that this could be done to.

If only he'd posted a few more pics.

Very cool, nice looking Coupe as well. Always have a soft spot for OZ wheels.

Would it not be best to just use a Lancia transfer box and keep the proper noise and power? Seems a bit of a waste

Don't be a hater mate after all it's a RWD Coupe I am not 100% certain as to what he's planning in terms of future modifications but I dare to guess it will have a turbo.

No, I'm not a hater - I love the idea. Just think it should have kept an Italian heart. I guess you work with what you have (would have liked to have seen a Mas motor in there)

And the fact that externally it is still true coup is teh best bit!

E36?

no longer a FIAT then.

What's the point? Someone who wanted the look but wanted rear wheel drive?

That would be ANOTHER car.

Waste of a good shell IMHO.

Does there really need to be a point as such?

Surely doing is just for the sheer hell/fun of it is reason enough!

Nice to see something truly different being done, far more interesting than the usual LE kit and a re-map.

Wow that's pretty cool and very different!

Hmmm now if only that was an Audi 5cyl 20V Turbo running about 600hp

RWD is great.....that's the only cons i see in italian cars....doing my RWD conversion on my Alfa 156's V6......
And was considering using BMW's engine and diff for a while as well.....
