Not really because theoretically all you would need to do is remove the cv axles. and you'd have a rwd evo.

but realistically
WTF would make an AWD a RWD
thats stupid, and it makes u lose acceleration
its all about the real street races, not some doll'd up Hollywood version

oh. Didn't even realize an evo was awd, figured fwd. shows how much I know about these cars. I know with bimmers, the transfer case is setup as 70% power inback, 30% infront, and if you take out the 2 halfshafts in the front, you still only get 70%. Still, that's pretty easy to replace a transfer case and halfshafts.

You know, personally, I didn't think it was that bad of a movie. I mean, the story was you know, kind of predictable at points but other points were like. Holy ****. The driving that they did was pretty insane, I mean, going through traffic sideways is pretty nuts in itself. Has some comical anecdotes in it. Um, let's see. Obviously Bow Wow isn't a very good actor but hey, name a rapper that is. Not much more that I can say, the cars were pretty sick. I think I spied an rx-8 a handful of skylines, an rx-7 three different 350Z's I think all were veilside. A '05 or '06 Viper, Chevelle. That Mustang, well, it was pretty rad except for the exhaust pipe hanging out the back of it.
