AWD Switch for G35x
I was asked about this trick in another thread. I have had this installed for quite some time.(thanks to Kenny aka da mayor) I thought it should be up for reference sakes
Its a modification for the G35x. Shuts off the AWD and sends power only to the rear wheels. This can be done by simply pulling the AWD fuse or by installing a switch..
Here you go.
the switch
the wiring (from the fuse box)
and the AWD light which signifies that the system is deactivated
(or broken )
and some proof...
got one!! heres the video. I did not edit it, so you have to fast foward about 23 seconds
rain outside, so I did not make any noise.
The shop charged me 60 bucks for the switch.
Once again, props to da mayor who is the Infiniti dealer who gave me this tip (makes you think...what else does he know?! )

hahah, everyone said this couldn't be done, but i knew it could. there were 2 occasions when i was ****in around with my car in the snow/rain and got the awd light to come on and the car was purely RWD.
smokin the tires on the pavers. lol. your nuts. doesn't look like you left a mark tho, i think thats cause its wet out.
congrats and enjoy that switch, i know you will.

steep lol. I am a horrible bargain eer. They give me a price and I say OK. I need to bargain more.
you dont need to go anywhere. You can just pull the fuse labeled AWD with the fuse puller located in the fuse box.
The switch was done by a normal shop. You just got to attach a switch to the fuse. No big deal.
it must of been justbrilliantx. I asked ChicagoX and apparently this was the first time he heard of it. I mentioned this before...you think it was me?

Thanks to Neal for the pics/vid.

I'm curious if the car will go into 'limp mode' after a certain mileage.

I agree thanks to Neal376 for posting this and taking the time for the pics and video.
I have to try pulling the fuse sometime also (if I can ever get the car away from my wife )
