Will take some and post up when the weather gets better, its been lashing rain for the last two days!!

As for the wheel hubs they are from an R33 Gts-t Type M!!

Lum I recognise you too, If i remember correctly ur driving an AWD Cefiro!?

[Lum]

That's the one yes. As far as I can tell it's the only 4WD Ceffy in the UK. Short of getting access to the DVLA database I have no way of knowing for sure though.

U not gagging to make it just RWD, some yoke for drifting like!!

[Lum]

Nope. I bought it to be a daily driver. Specifically went for 4WD and Auto to avoid one that had been used for drifting. It's in good nick and I want to keep it that way. I can use my Volvo 940 for drifting instead

I believe it's a pain in the arse to convert them to RWD, hence why the Skyline people would rather get a GTSt and swap in an RB26 than get a GTR and make it RWD. I guess in the meantime I could just pull the 4WD controller fuse though

[Nic_A31]

^^ I believe otherwise

ATTESTA is basically RWD until it detects a slip, then it becomes AWD, and simply pulling the fuse gives you RWD.

It is somewhat difficult to convert them to RWD but can be done without too many drama's - keep it AWD though
