T4 owners, Need some help please

[GoodJuan]

If an owner of an AWD p10 could help me out i'd really appreciate it. I took some pictures of my underbody and front and rear suspension shown below. If anyone with a digital camera could duplicate some of them i'd appreciate the help very much.

What are you trying to do. I think upgrading to AWD would be hellishly expensive! I know that comparing mine to a normal P10, just the boot alone is different - mines got a big lump where the AWD bit connects to the rear wheels just behind the rear seats. I dont have access to a digital camera but I have got this info on the 4WD system:

And there is something in HyperRev magazine about the T4 but its japanese Hyper Rev

Sorry, I don't have a digital camera either. Info on the T4 model is VERY difficult to find in English and so far I've been too tight to fork out the NZ$700 required to buy the Dealership manual which covers it.

I can tell you that on my T4 there is NO engine mount member that fits under the engine (running front to back). The front engine mount is supported by a big thick bar that runs under the radiator and up both sides of it to bolt into the main members either side of the engine bay. The rear driveshafts have 2 or 3 support bearings between centre diff and rear diff with some vibration dampeners fitted.

Don't know the next time I'll have the car up on a lift but I'll try to remember to get some pics then.

It would also be hellishly cool if i could pull it off! hehe. Anyway thanks for your help. Just making sure my international auto terminology is correct....trunk(USA)=Boot(everywhere else) correct? So your saying you have a lump in your trunk? Where is your spare tire mounted (just wondering)

The spare tire is in a well in the floor of the trunk. It's one of those space saver types wheels.

Also, the fuel tank has a half tunnel on the bottom for the rear driveshaft to pass through. Next time I'm at the caryard I might crawl under a FWD foer a nosey.
