Making 32 Gtr Rear Wheel Drive Only

[747.GTR]

no im not doing this to street car but im putting my 2j halfcut to use.

ive found a 32 gtr roller and im pickin it up monday, and starting my drift project

what i wanna kno is do i need to change the suspension setup/c.v's etc to 32 gtst

or is it just a matter of removing the gtr driveshafts?

thanks

just use an supra box (if you can) or an RB25 box, then run the GTR rear end as is. once the engine is gone you don't have to worry about sump mods or anything, and of course the front driveshafts need to do too. if you are planning to run ABS you will need to ensure you keep the wheel speed sensors, but if you are going an engine swap etc, and just for drift I say chuck the ABS anyway.

the suspension doesn't need to be changed at all.

Is using a GTR a wise idea for drift?

A mates R32 GTS4 has a very limited steering lock compared to my GTST.

without any front driveshafts to worry about you can do some mods and get as much or more steering angle from a GTR chassis as a GTST

the prescence of front driveshafts and CVs is the only thing that required nissan to limit the amount of steering angle in GTRs compared to GTSTs.

all good! sussed it all out n its pretty simple, jus remove the driveshaft n plug up where they used to be.. i was confusing myself with thinking it was constant 4wd for some reason lol all sorted

I think it would be harder to put the 2j in and keep AWD!

Just use an R32 GTS and fit GTR guards for the GTR look, especially if you want to drift it. Don't waste a good GTR shell for such a project....Just give it to me to turn it into an all out drag GTR
