I was thinking of things to do with my gsl-se today, and i thought it might be cool to turn it into a rally car.

But just out of curiosity, how would one go about changing it to an awd. It seems like i would have to swap alot of things.

it was rod millen that had the 1st gen rally cars.

rod millen had 3 of them

i believe there were a total of 10 built, i dont know who they were built by though

rod also built, and still has a 20B powered 2nd gen AWD pikes peak car.

do a search on rx7club.com there is like a 5 page thread on the topic where i posted pics of several first and second gen AWD cars.
