    So, do they dissable the awd for the burnout then enable it again? Or is he just running rwd on this beast?

    ^^^figure those equally sized slicks up front should give it away.:hit newb:

    RWD for burnout...AWD for launch.

    Those aren't slicks, those are MT ET Street Radials, so they're still a drag radials

    The only thing I hate about GTR's is how damned much money you have to sink into a trans to get it to hold those kind of times. Why can't we be like MKIV guys, throw a good clutch in front of the V160 and have it take tons of power.

    the gtr tranny isn't all that weak, you have to figure in all that additional stress due to AWD.

    Sorry for the dumb question - How do you make ur gtr 2wd ? All i can think of is take the awd fuse out. Is there another way?????

    Then it obviously is weak if it can't handle the stress placed on it by the AWD system.

    Mark is running a 20000 dollar liberty clutchless box set up.

    and the v160 is just as weak in a GTR as it is in a supra....if you have traction.
    people destroy their v160's in r34's all the time.
