Which AWD cars have you driven? I would wager that the Skyline..err I mean the GT-R's drivetrain will be a unique experience even for an experienced AWD purist. It's RWD biased, meaning torque is applied to the front wheels only when a loss of traction is sensed at the back wheels. Or at least that was the beauty of Nissan's old ATTESA setup. I think it's the same one that's on my Infiniti FX35. I haven't been able to give it the 400whp+ test yet though.

AWD I guess just might be something I'm not entirely used to though. I'd be willing to give it a shot again for the Nissan GT-R, and the Carrera 4S was one hell of a daily driver. Not knocking it, just different strokes for different folks.

I doubt it will have the modability of the RB26DETT Skylines, since we're talking closed-deck iron block vs open deck aluminum block.
