yes i said it s13.5 rhd awd gtr!!! i bought my 240 last summer in august for $150 but the car had nothing at all no interior wiring or interior pieces or anything at all..lol so i basically finsihed the interior new carpet, dash,etc. so now i just bought the r32 front end to do an awd swap on the 240 and should arrive in like 3 weeks or so. i will post pics soon of progress...

wow dude thats a big and expensive build. my i ask how you re gonna accomplish the awd? i think you'd have to have one of the skyline's rear ends(32,33,34) and the wiring for it all..sheesh!! this is at least a 15k build for it all, but hey i take it you have the money? anyhow GL bud, and pics of your parts?

Im gonna say that none of those performance parts are going matter at this point in the build...

Also, doesnt the GTR use some really complicated AWD system? ATTESA-ETSWTFBBQ!!!111!!one!eleven!

"The ATTESA-ETS layout is more advanced than the ATTESA system, and uses a 16bit microprocessor that monitors the cars movements at 100 times per second to sense traction loss by measuring the speed of each wheel via the ABS sensors. A three axis G-Sensor mounted underneath the center console feed lateral and longitudinal inputs into an ECU, which controls both the ATTESA-ETS 4WD system and the ABS system. The ECU can then direct up to and including 50% of the power to the front wheels. When slip is detected on one of the rear wheels (rear wheels turn 5% or more than the front wheels), the system directs torque to the front wheels which run a viscous LSD. Rather than locking the AWD in all the time or having a system that is "all or nothing", the ATTESA-ETS system can apportion different ratios of torque to the front wheels as it sees fit. This provides the driver with an AWD vehicle that performs like a rear wheel drive vehicle in perfect conditions and can recover control when conditions aren't as perfect. The advantage to a more traditional ATTESA (Viscous LSD) system is response in hundredths of a second."

Good luck with that one.

no i ordered an r32 front end. i was able to speak with the gentlemen that helped with that fullrace awd conversion and he gave me a full parts list for the conversion and he gave me all his insight on it. like the r32 almost bolts up perfect just some welding needs to be done and some drilling. after doing all the research it not that expensive nor that compicated. its just gonna take me alittle bit of time considering im still in school and on a budget..lol

acually they say that ATTESA system is s*** and some skyline owners found a way to trick the ecu but i havent decided if i want to keep it but i have a huge skyline factory service manual that i can use to wire it up. i know i can do it cause i had to re-wire my whole 240 cause i didnt get any wire harness with my 240.

I have the service manual for R32 GT-Rs if you need it to diagnose the wiring for the ECU and ATTESA system.

I've been through the whole attesa system, and I have figured out that it kind of sucks. There are aftermarket controllers that you can make work, or you can go simple and use an in car adjustable pressure regulator to get the job done (what full race does) I'll be keeping an eye on this in case you need some help.

He didn't say it would be done in three weeks I think he was saying that the r32 parts would be there in 3 weeks, but I say more power to you if you have the tools as well as the parts to make it happen, would definitely be a sight to see.
