3rd Generation Gen3 RWD conversion

Hey guys, I'm relatively new here
so excuse me if this question sounds stupid
but I was wondering if it would be feasible to convert my Gen3 to rwd/awd?
I've got the 3vz and 5-speed stick, if it helps

rwd would take some serious re-engineering and a huge budget
better to just go get a rwd car
awd im not to sure about but think it would be the same way

Why would you want RWD for winter driving?

you can go AWD. they actually had an AWD gen3 in japan, but no one i know has built one in north america. theres also possibilites using some of the camry's siblings like the RX300 and highlander. but again...no one has done it.

^ Indeed. I've researched it in depth. If you actually have $3k or more, we can talk about it.
