K24A1 engine with AWD manual transmission and rear driveline (K-swap AWD)
into Civic EG (from CR-V)
Yes: the K24A1 engine with AWD manual transmission and rear driveline (K-swap AWD) from the CR-V (2002-2006) fits the Civic EG (1992-1995) — difficult difficulty, modifications required.
Installation notes
Required modifications
Engine mounts: Hasport EGKAWD version of the EGK kit (works with the K-series CR-V and Element AWD or FWD manual transmissions). Hasport also sells an AWD K-series rear engine bracket, described as 'for use with Hasport EGK2 and EKK2 mount kits' (listed for the 92-95 Civic, 93-97 del Sol and 94-01 Integra); confirm with Hasport whether your build needs the EGKAWD kit or an EGK2 kit with this bracket. Hasport says the stock transmission bracket has to be cut off the frame rail. Rear differential: Innovative Mounts AWD rear diff mount kit 103360 for the 92-95 Civic and 94-01 Integra, designed for the 88-91 Wagon or Element/CR-V rear differential (rear subframe notching and rivnuts). Also needs a K-swap harness/ECU, driveshaft, viscous coupler mounting and axles.
Important caveats
- Rear differential mounting needs the rear subframe notched and rivnuts installed (Innovative), plus a driveshaft and viscous coupler mounting.
- The donor gearbox must be a K-series CR-V or Element AWD manual; automatic CR-Vs are far more common.
- Neither vendor page lists axle part numbers for a K-series AWD conversion; plan custom or confirmed-fitment axles.
- Hasport says the stock transmission bracket must be cut off the frame rail for the EGK kit.
