Gts-4 Full Time? Or Part Time?

[markdem]

i was talking to my friend the other day and he said something about the r32 gts-4's having a full time 4wd drivetrain, not part time like the gtr that only usues the front wheels when it has to. is this true?

[mŮk]

no its not true

[Moodles2]

100% untrue, they have the same AWD system, if you ran ATTESSA full time on the GTS-4, the transfer case gear oil would boil and the transfer case's clutch pack would be farked in no time.

cheers guys always appreciated

Yeah, there are no part time $WD skylines in production. However I have heard of a front drive disconnect?

It sounds unfeasable, however I would be VERY interested to know more! Anyone else heard this?

All 4WD Stageas and Skylines are like a part time AWD..

R32 GTS4/GTR runs 100% torque to the rear until it needs to feed torque to the front, up to 50% split (also feeds torque to the front under braking).

R33 onwards run a 5% split to the front then more when needed.

With R32's, you can just pull the fuse to make it RWD.

R33 onwards you need to either drop the front prop shaft or pull the bleed plug and hit the brake pedal 5 times after you start the car.

Wow... That's a handy piece of knowledge. Thanks heaps.

Only wanted to find out cos I wanna build a fun bit of gear... AWD for track and street, but 2WD for ... ahem. fun?

get a R32GTR or GTS4 then, i run a torque split controller which lets me adjust how quickly (sensitivity) the front wheels engage when needed,

and also has a switch to turn off the attessa pump which means RWD for drifting

+1 all this is yours with a torque split controller.

I have just installed a TSC torque split controller last weekend, easy as pie. Just follow the instructions.

All i need to know is from the people that have used these units for sometime - what is the best setting to have the dial placed at for drivability, and having the dial set to 10 - does this stuff your front transfer case up?

Transfer will be fine

I change mine depending on driving. If its wet its up pretty high , freeway driving i turn it right down cause i notice the front torque kicks in too easily.

normal dry driving i like having the setting around 5 ish. Feels nocer accellerating out of a corner
