hey everyone i dont kno why but im starting a godzilla project yea the one everyone talks about doin but only few have except with this project i want to make the 240sx AWD thats right i wanna keep the rb26 trans and modify the car to fit has anyone ever heard of this bein done--- and before anyone starts sayin that the idea is stupid or that its gonnna be outrageously expensive i kinda already kno that lol im tryin to create a drag car i already have a 180sx for the drifting now i need somethin for drag--i pretty much want the launch that they skyline has when it takes off. if anyone has annyyyy info please let me kno ---also ill take opinions good or bad.

Be prepared to cut the front end up and sourcing R-chassis front suspension parts to work with the front axles and all that.

It is so impractical to do this, that this is pretty much a ridiculous idea.

That's why no one has done it.

If you want AWD, pick up a 1g DSM for like $2000 and drop the clutch at 6000rpm all you want. They'll take it for a few runs, then break, then you just buy another transfer case for like $100 and put it on, and repeat.

Beats having to pretty much weld on a Skyline front chassis to an S-chassis just to have AWD.

so pretty much u dont think that doing this would create a quicker drag car at all---the welding part isnt a problem because --well i weld lol so thats not a issue i guess i need pictures of a cut r-chassis and a s-chassis to see just how different they are like a cross secton view to see what mods i have to do

skyline is way tooo expensive and its normal--gotta go for whats rare and is done as much plus to buy a skyline in this area is hell all the thousand dollars worth of legalizing theres only 1 guy in md/dc that has one maybe 2

if your trying to build a drag car you already have the perfect setup a light weight RWD car. AWD is nice and all but can only get you so far. Look at John Shepard he has probably the baddest AWD drag car and hes only running mid 8s(8 secs is extremely fast dont take it out of context when I say only) What are the fastest cars in the 1320? RWD With good tires, proper suspension and.......you can get that AWD launch your looking for. If you go over to DRAG240SX.com theres people cutting 1.5 60 foots with street tires and EVOs have a hard time cutting 1.5s. Mickey Thompson E/T streets for example have taken some car to [email protected]ph in the 1/4 so something around a 1.1-1.2 60 foot. My point is if you want a purpose built drag car stay RWD and put the money you were going to spend on r-chassis parts and fabrication and put it towards tires, suspension, axles, diff, .....and get those sub 1.6 60 foots your looking for.

so your afraid that a skyline gtr will be expensive? But your trying to attempt and AWD RB26 240SX? That is not going to be cheap. I think i'm going to be answering the same questions, after 3F 3F.

Come on if you watch option video #34, the Jun 240sx have a quarter mile on 8.08 secs. Read the specs on that, and it uses an SR20DET with a 2.2 litre upgrade a T88, etc etc etc... No NOS....

yea for high end drag cars, AWD actually slows you down. To much driveline rotation.

I saw a Fastback on "EGay" a long time ago that supposedly had the AWD swap started. The front end of the car was about 3 feet off the ground to make room for the front drive shafts and such. I'm fairly certain, in this day and age, if it hasn't been done already, it's probably not worth it. Unless we are talking new technology, but we're not. The RB26 has been swapped into MANY s-chassis. There is a reason they went with RWD trannies.

You clearly aren't working from a knowledgable standpoint.

1. If maintaining a low budget is a concern, building an AWD 240sx is not feasible.
2. If this is going to be a track-only drag car (which it would have to be, due to the excessive modification required for a 240sx), the Skyline wouldn't have to be legalized, as it's a racecar.
3. What's the problem with what's normal? I thought the object of drag racing was to go fast, not to be unique. If unique is what you want, build a showcar.

Every so often a thread like this pops up.

And every thread that does, ends in jibberish.

awd + 240 = stupid.

Has it been done? Maby, But whoever did it must've had a shitload of money to waste on making a 240 wannabe skyline.

240's are ment to be rwd.

But then again, since you're the one with a 180sx, I could be wrong. :D

You dumb shit, it's easier taking something away that a car already has, then to add something that the car was never designed for.

If he has some dire need to drive an awd nissan, then he could buy a skyline.

Actually its been done in the states. Remember back bout 5-6 yrs ago, there was a guy from Wisconsin or MN who had a S14 w/ AWD RB26DETT swap. Guy goes by the SN of "LilGTR" Cant remember which board tho, i wanna say NICO when NICO was koo. Anyways, the car was one of the cleanest S14 ive ever seen (It was a show car). He was putting down 550 whp on 4 wheels. I loved that car, then it broke my heart. The guy was coming back from a car show, car was being trailered when they hit a patch of black ice. Lost control of the truck and the trailer flipped, completely destroying the car. This was back then when nobody has done RB swaps in the states, people were just starting on the SR bandwagon.

hmmm that is a dumb idea, however r32 suspension works in a s13 correct??? if thats so it should be easy if you can find the parts

if that is true you might have to fab up tie rods and the lower control arm... i'm pretty sure the cars are about the same width so the axles should work fine... basically if you want a drag car go rwd, if you want something to brag about to the local ricers awd is within your reach

This has nothing to do with building a fast "drag car". It one of those "I'm cool because I'm going to build an AWD 240" things. So instead of harping I'm going to be supportive...

You can do it man! It's not hard and it won't be expensive at all. It's not a total waste of money. Especially when you take into consideration the fact that you can spend half of what a swap like this would cost and build a RWD RB26 powered 240 with more power and a hell of alot faster.

Oh and sciamop, that was the funniest shite I've seen in a while.

I seriously looked into doing an RB26DET AWD in an S14 a few months back. I am an automotive fabricator by trade and wanted to do something a little different. In the end it wasn't the cost that diswaded me, but more the time to fab up a bunch of new stuff. The frame needed modification for the axles to pass through, new frame needed to be made for the R33/R34 front suspension, and mounts for the engine and transmission.
The idea is good if you are wanting a VERY serious project to show off your cutting and welding skills, but even if you were to include only half the time you spend to do it correctly, it would be more ecconomical to puchase an R32 or R33 or Evo or STI or .... An Awd S14 would be sweet though.

BoostinGST
06-06-2006, 01:25 AM
you dont need an r33 subframe... especially if your doing an s13... i also forgot to mention in my last post that you would need a custom driveshaft... if you have a decent amount of cash i can get you a r32 gtr for under $20k registered and all... it wouldnt be more cost effective than an s13 awd swap but it would be if you consider the time its going to take...

there was a site lilgtr.com...it was a RB26DETT swap, not AWD.

The guy had about $60k into it.

Unless one has about $100k to blow (I don't see how the chassis would be compatible though), I wouldn't even start the project.

A basic R32 could be had for $20k or so.

Being able to 'weld' and designing a chassis though are two different worlds. Sort of like someone saying they can do surgery because they can use a scalpel.

Good luck if you are serious though

I coulda sworn it was AWD...then again that was over 3 yrs ago. I know Mckinney was trying to make a kit but gave up on the idea almost 2 yrs ago. I think they figured that there wasnt enough interest in it to warrant them fabbing the stuff to make it possible. Also, they gave up on trying to drift with the RB after they figured that have GTR powered S-chassis was not the greatest setup for drifting. Mack said, it simply put down power to the wheels that it was hard to control it and made the car oversteer crazy *spinout* Back to SR20det it is...

thanks you all for all the input, with the exception of the two dipshits on the site (that guy & siI40sx) . ive still been doin the research and alot of people are right awd would give it that take off but wouldnt give me the times i want to see, especially if im going to be investing a large amount of money and time. Right now what i want is a drag car so i think i might stick with the rb26dett jus simply the rb25 trans. Oh and to the man with the welding comment (alkemyst) u are absolutly right but, i think that im full capable of welding a chassis lol i doubt i would just randomly attempt to weld a chassis together-that be a big saftey issue... ive done it before on a drag car that runs 9s it was at nopi in md and will be there again in august on top of that i also helped some guy weld together the frame for his chopper so yea i have the experience.

I seriously dont see the point of having AWD for a drag car. All thats gonna happen is more shiet for your car to potentially break with the more torque/power you have. I've personally seen a S13 with a RB26 RWD stock boost with OPEN DIFF run 11s. So with more boost and more traction, imagine the possibilities...

Wow no one in this thread even mentioned it... Just because it's Skyline AWD doesn't instantly make it somehow invincible to the problems of AWD such as breaking of transmissions and diffs. If the goal is a fast drag car and by fast I'll assume in the 10's. Then you better hope your skyline drivetrain is up for it. Just because the RB26 can make crazy power. Doesn't mean it can put it down every time. Maybe you've got the hook up for skyline trannys, transfer cases and front diffs located in and next to the oil pan. That'll be fun to change out. If you have to ask how to do it then you probably lack the knowledge to complete the conversion.

Good for him. My friend's GT2871R SR20 S13 cut 1.5 60's at the track on drag radials, stock motor. Good luck doing that with an AWD S13 :)

For all the money invested, you could have a killer suspension setup and a rear-end setup that would handle the power and launch harder than an AWD could.

AWD is overrated unless you're towing something, driving in the rain, or driving offroad.

Nope
[N:] Didn’t think so

How you doin’ young lady
That feelin’ that you givin’ really drives me crazy
You don’t haveta play about the joke
I was at a loss of words first time that we spoke

Looking for a girl that’ll treat you right
You lookin’ for her in the day time with the light
You might be the type if I play my cards right
I'll find out by the end of the night

[N:] You expect me to let you just let you hit it
But will you still respect me if you get it

All I can do is try, gimme one chance
What’s the problem I don’t see no ring on your hand

I be the first to admit it, I’m curious about you, you seem so innocent

[N:] You wanna get in my world, get lost in it
Boy I’m tired of running, lets walk for a minute

[Chorus]
Promiscuous girl
Wherever you are
I’m all alone
And it's you that I want

[N:] Promiscuous boy
You already know
That I’m all yours
What you waiting for?

Promiscuous girl
You're teasing me
You know what I want
And I got what you need

[N:] Promiscuous boy
Let's get to the point
Cause we're on a roll
Are you ready?

[Verse]
[N:] Roses are red
Some diamonds are blue
Chivalry is dead
But you're still kinda cute

Hey! I can't keep my mind off you
Where you at, do you mind if I come through

[N:] I’m out of this world come with me to my planet
Get you on my level do you think that you can handle it?

If your going to go through all that trouble wht not tube the whole car tub the rear put a solid rear axle (ford 9" or something along those lines)buy the adapter plate and put a chevy 350 tranny on it.Now I know someguys are going to flame me for this using domestic parts but think about it this way you wont break axles and if you blow your tranny you can find a new one almost anywhere.I mean a RB25 stock replacement tranny is going to cost around $800 and a fully built chev tranny will cost you around a $1000.

This isnt something I would ever build if I was going to drive it on the street but stirctly drag it would be bullet proof.

And of course there's the whole point of what the GT-R / ATTESA-ETS was originally engineered for; not drag racing.
FR remains the best layout for 0-400.
AWD is easier to launch, but as was already mentioned; also more parts to break. So how deep are your pockets once this very custom fab job is complete?
Probably the easiest way to do an AWD S-chassis (as already done) is to take the entire floor pan/driveline off a BNR32 and then weld/bolt the S-chassis on.
Or skip that lengthy step and just buy a US DOT legalized BNR32 and start performance mods immediately
But... I understand; some people just 'gotta be different, be clever and do things the hard way even at the expense of efficiency.

I saw a Fastback on "EGay" a long time ago that supposedly had the AWD swap started. The front end of the car was about 3 feet off the ground to make room for the front drive shafts and such. I'm fairly certain, in this day and age, if it hasn't been done already, it's probably not worth it. Unless we are talking new technology, but we're not. The RB26 has been swapped into MANY s-chassis. There is a reason they went with RWD trannies.

i saw a coupe on ebay like that... and the front end was definately high up and looked messed up

Ummm...isn't Full-Race doing this as we speak? AWD 240SX/GT-R hybrid. http://wakesports.com/full-race/index.php?showtopic=1054&hl=

Interesting...I wonder what their reason for doing this is....as well as their progress so far.
