Driving an AWD car takes some skill.. You have to keep in mind that they dont spin like FWD cars do, which means more drivetrain stress. Now if you want bad ass, convert a AWD GSX/TSi into RWD. Thats what a lot of the hardcore DSM dragracers do. Those are the guys running sub-10s though.
Youll probably do more burning up of the clutch until you put in a aftermarket Heavy-duty race clutch. Thats when the transmission problems really start. Replacing the clutch in a AWD Eclipse or Talon is a fun job. I can tell you that from experience.
