Thats sweet but wouldnt the AWD system freak out?

According to AMS's Facebook, that was on the 2-3 shift too!!

That's correct. Lifted on the 2-3 shift.

does that engine run backwards?

I was thinking the same thing.

x3. Why is the hood dented around the hoodpins?

Looks fast.

AMS has it together with the GTR's Shit a STOCK 2012 GTR goes 10.90-11.00. Intakes, down pipes, exhaust, injectors + fuel pump with E85 and guys are going low tens high nine. AMS has a GTR going in the 8's. Im not sure if this is the one or not, judging by the pic it probably is.

Agreed. They do some great work with imports

Lol, it looks like it does, but I bet the other tire is up also, it just can't be seen because of the dark shadow....

 

[greentrunk]

Or maybe its not...I just zoomed in hmmmmmm

Does it still use the AWD system? Maybe the converted it to RWD only like the Lambo's do

 

[ConfusedGarage]

Last I saw this car run at TX2k11 it was AWD, thinking it still is.

I read somewhere that the AWD system in these will bias the power greatly towards the back wheels at the track.

I had no idea how a GT-R powertrain was laid out. This thread got me wondering. If anyone else wondered and didn't know...

I can honsetly say I knew absolutely nothing about the powertrain in those.

Trans/T case/rear axle

The transfer case location ensures that unless you are in the 1:1 or a higher gear you will never have even 50% of torque to the front because you can only send half the engine torque up front. only torque to the rear can be multiplied by the trans ratios.

 

[1BADAIR]

I tried finding engine rotation direction but couldn't

 

[4 cam tbird]

I found that a bunch of Honda motors spin the wrong way.

 

[moneypit]

Its an AWD thing launch a syclone or typhoon hard and you can hear the right front squeak

these cars are machines. Few guys have some realllly quick ones out. AMS, Switzer, John Sheppard, Forged ect. We supply parts to these guys and youd be amazed at how many of these things drive to the track..go mid 9's or faster..then drive home. Guys that have these cars have no problem dropping money into them. Im talking $2500+ just for an exhaust. Cars are just awesome.
