I heard that while you can, you should never deliberately try to drift/powerslide an R35 GTR because you will quickly kill the transfer case or something other within the AWD system. Can any experts confirm or deny this claim?

>transfer case
The R-35 is AWD, not 4WD...
>>16779490
there's a way to make it rwd only.
same with the skyline gtr's, the 32 had a switch, the 33 and 34 required some special shit with the fuses and the 35 requires some computer input to override where it sends power.
>>16779490
They still have tranfer cases you fuck.
>>16779494
To make the transaxle based R-35 a RWD car you would need to deactivate the center differential, wich is some kind of torsen differential as far as I know.
Another way to make it more rear biased instead of RWD would be to programm the ESP to apply the front brakes a bit when you try to drift it.

They have a center differntial, not a tranfer case.
>>16779467
Yes you should. Right into a tree so we never have to look at it again.
>>16779467
the computer control makes it basically impossible to drift at length like an rwd car, but it shouldn't damage anything.
>>16779573
a transfer case with an clutch type electrohydraulic coupling inside it you dumb cunt.
>>16779490
>>16779536
I'm not asking about changing the bias or converting to rwd. You can powerslide most awd performance cars like the evo, sti, and r8 without causing any mechanical issues. I'm asking weather or not powersliding an unmodified gtr will prematurely kill the awd system. I've heard some people say it will, but I couldn't find any evidence support these claims.

Please learn the modern meaning of transfer case and fuck off.

t. assmad GM fangirl
its a high performance car made for lotsa grip
of course you can drift it, but for extended periods of time why abuse the car? its very mean. same goes for any 100k+ car. a 911 turbo can skid with ease but treat it like an s13 at a matsuri and enjoy a big repair bill

>it's 2016 so lets all adopt dumb americanised terminology
yeah, nah. fuck off
>>16779823
It isnĀ“t 2016 anymore.

even worse, thank you for proving my point

lmao

The transfer case uses a wet multiplate clutch to control engagement. As long as you don't spend a ton of time fighting the differentials it's fine. But you can't drift it like an RWD. The transfer case will lock up and pull you out if you stay on the throttle.
