Ignoring the transmission differences, is the AWD SR20DET of the GTi-R capable of reliably delivering the same high power figures that the Silvia (180SX) SR20DET can? In other words, are the engines themselves identical? I've heard 450 to 500 hp reliably on the street, without ripping transmisisons or differentials apart--are these numbers accurate or overoptimistic?

Also, does anyone know how much weight the AWD system of the GTi-R adds over the 2-wheel drive models?

Thanks a metric ton!
