If somebody could make an affordable AWD kit for the 03-04 Cobra would you want one? 1.5 60' times on street tires!

No, our cars are heavy enough already, without adding another axle & propshaft, let alone a transfer case.

id rather spend the money on light weight parts to get the curb weight down to 3200lbs or so, and bump up the hp. this aint no rally car. if it was real affordable, tough, and didnt weigh too much, then yes, i'd take it. is all that going to happen? i dont think so.

I'm sorry, I'm talking 600+rwhp, about 710 at the flywheel...
example. Colemans car...

Like I said I haven't seen an IRS handle the HP #'s these cars are putting down...

Your talking big money:rockon:

People already complain about the 4X4 look. Do you think that a AWD will fit without jacking the car up higher than it's stock height? You would have to raise the engine up higher (so much for affordable) to get axles to the front wheels, nevermind the tranaxle. I suppose if you throw enough money at it, AWD is possible, but it would require a complete redesign. Maybe I'm being pessimistic, but that's just the engineer in me. More power to you if you can pull it off.

I'm pretty sure the skyline has been making like 1000hp on the AWD. Unless that is something that has to be swapped out to allow the car to have that much power.

Allwheel drive takes the fun away I like to be able to light the tires up or do a litle slide job if I feel like it. I'm not into road racing and I don't live in a snow or icy area I can drive my car year around and thats the only thing I could think it would be good for. A AWD converstion wouldn't be cheap no way you are talking about alot if parts and mods that would have to be done.
