If you are going to do something that requires that much work at least do something cool. Try and make it awd using the engine / drivetrain from the tl or mdx/rdx (whichever had awd)

I do not think the engine compartment of the s is wide enough to fit a front wheel drive setup. It barely fits a longitudinally mounted engine, so it would be practically impossible to fit a horizontally mounted engine and a transmission without completely destroying the structural integrity of the front end.

Real talk though- A thread like this is going to piss off 90% of the people that read this, the other 10% are too drunk to realize what they are actually reading or assuming you are trolling (I vote trolling). This thread makes about as much sense as asking if a ridgeline or pilot suspension will fit on an s so you can lift it and put 26" rims on it. Who wouldn't want a donk2000.

I spent MY money on it so i can do with it what i want. There is no way I'm going to drive a rwd car in the winter because that would be dumb. Plus since my parents bought it i can use the money i have saved up myself to do the conversion. i have about 2,500 so I'm not that far away.

Wow, ignorance is bliss. Yes, please just keep ignoring everyone who is trying to teach you something.

Also, it will cost WAY more than 2,500 to do this correctly. Keep digging the hole deeper, where it goes, no one knows!

You want to convert it to FWD to be better in the winter, but want a convertible so you wont get a winter beater? How does that make any sense... you cannot use a convertible in the winter, and you would definitely f@#k up the car. $2500 is not going to cut it if you do this.

Thanks for twisting my words around. I got it as a birthday present. That way I would have something nice to drive for the rest of my senior year. The ladies love it!

You have no clue regarding the mechanics and work involved, let alone the changes to the car's dynamics and handling if you think this would just amount to a simple "engine-swap."

That'll be enough troll feeding for me.
