Its not the first time this idea has been toyed with. Just wondering if anyone has put any serious thought into going 4WD with their VLT. Being a manual VLT, just having a few traction probs at the moment and this thought crossed my mind a few times. Anyone know how much more traction im gunna get with a 4WD setup? Dowsides and tradeoffs? Viable or not?

im no expert, but wouldnt less power be delivered to all 4 wheels, and traction can always be a problem even with 4wd, u just have to do the rite thing. i have heard it can be done, but is a bit of an arse todo, perhaps modify a few sklyine parts ?? i dont know, i have thought about this myself a new gearbox would be needed also ??

Been done before and was a feature car in an old issue of Street Machine magazine a guy used just about everything off a GTR Skyline it was AWD and had everything big GTR brakes oil coolers for the diffs and I think he used an Autronic ECU, the VL Calais was silver in colour and had a mild body kit. Unless you did all the work yourself and got hold of a cheap damaged Skyline GTR the costs would make it unworthy of doing the conversion. I reckon if you want a AWD car then go buy a WRX, GSR or the Skyline GTR that's allso if you have the money too. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah rang around a few places today.... and well yeah I think ill put a rain check on that thought for a while yet Thanks doodz for lettin me know what's involved in doing it, but i dont think ive got the time or the expertise at the moment.. but cheers anyway.
