AWD on the Q or GTR is NOT full time. It never has been. The car is ALWAYS in RWD UNLESS the car senses loss in traction, then in milliseconds it activates to enable AWD. I believe their are aftermarket controllers and overrides for part time AWD. He must've had extensive knowledge n just knows where that controller plugs in. So he just disconnected the wire without actually using the aftermarket part.

Better to save the extra 200lbs n buy RWD.
