2wding An Awd R33

[nismad]

Everyone knows the R32 fuse trick to convert to 2WD, but i was reading the R33 service manual and it says;

2WD Setting, Remove air evacuation connector, depress the brake 5 times within 10 seconds after placing ignition to on

then follows by saying remove the front shaft,

just wondering if the 32 uses this air evacuation system and is that why u can just pull a fuse on a 33, and once the 33 is at this stage is it as 'safe' to run in 2wd as the 32 with the fuse pulled with the front shaft still connected, not that im planning on doing it.. i dont even have an AWD, just curious as im planning on getting one in the future.. i guess it might be handy to know for the odd dyno run..

Thanks.

No idea on the airevacuation system, but once the driveshaft is out yes it is safe to run like this. Many tuners tune GTR's on a RWD dyno only. But if your doing dyno runs at a comp lets face it AWD is cooler I wouldn't go to the hassle of pulling the driveshaft out....
