Thinking Of Puting Awd In My R34 25Gt Sedan

[thejedilestat]

Well title says it all but the reason for me wanting an AWD system in my car is my drive way is 1k of dirt. As you would guess my car likes to slide around a bit when it is wet even with traction control/snow on. The dream is to slap a RB26 in my Skyline one day but as my car handels great stock I was also wondering how much better the AWD system would be.

I am in no rush to do anything to my car but I just had to ask your thoughts.

Sell it. Buy something AWD. Anything else can only be considered to be massive overcapitalisation.

Yea I thought of that but idk I am attached to my car. Selling is an option for sure but when I think of it I cry inside a little lol. I have Been thinking of getting a gt4 but if I am going to buy I may as well just get a GTR. I'm leaning to the R33 GTR but a R32 could be nice.

As much as I hate to say it, EVO or WRX make 10x the sense of an AWD Skyline for what you're wanting.

Do you live on a farm or something? When I lived on one, we put gravel down in problematic areas. The driveway was probably 400m tops though. No idea of the cost, we lived near a quarry which was handy.

Problem areas includes things like washout areas where fine mud just gets stripped away by rain leaving deep grooves, or simple gradients which are too slippery in the wet.

haha fair enough i dont need a full on 4X4 to get out of the drive way... well i do but the wife has a Hilux so no big deal. my car handels the mud just fine(as long as we get below 10mm of rain) i was just thinking if 2 more spining wheels would be a bit better thats all. like i said the dream is full GTR guts in my car but it may jus stay a dream but its still nice to have one.

yea ZoomZoom i live on a 226acr farm and the driveway has one hill that cant be a bit hairy at times on the way up but not to bad. if its too wet for my car to get out then the wife will just have to take me where i need to go... she has ben at me to sell the car for about a year now cuz of the drive way.

I would but i wouldent want to sell it really this is my dream car maybe not the sedan but still i am happy with it so happy i dont really think i need a turbo in it.

WRX wouldent be a bad idea but i will stick with Skyline
