    A missing brain. and thats not a joke.

    Get a 240 with a SR20 if you want to skid around.

    Making a EVO RWD would be like cutting its nuts off


    OR if you must know

    I sold a bunch of stuff to Thomas Griffith who built the Tool Racing/Cosworth Drift EVO

    He did it the right way.

    Haha, how bout some locking hubs :)

    "So using a kit developed by Rhys Millen Racing (RMR), eight of the 10 brand-new Japanese-market Evo IXs donated to the Tokyo Drift production by Mitsubishi were converted to rear-drive drift cars by replacing the differential's output assembly with one that leaves out the splines to drive the front wheels and capping the output holes in the transfer case. The stock transverse-mounted six-speed transmission is left alone, as is the rest of the drivetrain. Converting an Evo IX back to all-wheel drive should be just as straightforward."[/img]

    You can contact RMR and try to get their kit they used to make the FF3TD cars... or possibly get a spool type or just weld the center diff solid and disconnect the front axles. depending on which year you will probably end of with some electronic problems, but that's par for the game. You would probably have to beef up the driveshaft and rear axles to handle the extra stress.

    that would completely defeat the purpose of the active center diff if converted.
