hi,

im just very confused right now about tunning a GTR........the tuner i prefer does not have a 4wd dyno, and he is going to take the front drive shaft out and tune my car on RWD mode.

would this actually affect anything on my car??? or does it do anything to Attessa system at all??

any info would be greatly appreciated.

cheers

How come ur using someone to tune ur car when they dont own a 4wd dyno? Maybe take it to somewhere that has a 4wd dyno and then u dont have to buggerise around with removing the driveshaft.

P.S frank, was over at dan's picking up some parts last nite, and gotta say lovely car u've get there mate :rofl:

nothing to worry about. many tuners only have RWD dyno. 4WD would be prefferable, but if all he has is RWD then disconecting the front prop shaft and running the car in RWD is no problem at all.

Frank i got my GTR tuned 2wd mode.... Richo at Allstar done mine, and he's only up the road from where you are... drop in and have a chat with him.. couldn't hurt...

Noy, was gonna pm you for some advice...thanx man

i know Richo is a really good tuner( got things done by him before), but he hates Power FCs as anything........

i am gonna get Gavin Wood and Matty Spry to tune mine next week....

once i get Motec or HalTec with other mods, i will bring it down to Richo, and then he will be gald to do it.

why would it matter if it was on a 2wd dyno or on a 4wd dyno, they are not awd they only use the front wheel drive when the rear wheels brake traction so really they are a RWD car untill the rear whells spin

not true at all. do you own or have you driven a GTR? AWD is computer controlled and is engaged under lots of different circumstances. a lot of the time there is some amount of FWD being engaged.

further to this the 33 & 34 gtr's always have some amount of front wheel drive, hence why u have to pop the front drive shaft to put in constant rwd

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
