No problems, except for a bit of drive line noise if you are in say 2nd or 4th gear taking off at low revs etc. The chromemolly tube transmitts some of the noise from the gearbox. Gbox is second hand anyway.

In rwd it does light up wheels alot faster. Little difference in acceleration probably due to lighter flywheel and tripple plate assy.

Be warned, your two piece gets chopped up for it's ends so you can't swap back unless you but another two piece like I did, just in case....

Well guys, just had a new custom 2-piece fitted and guess what - no more high speed vibration problems. Mine was put down to an alignment issue between the gearbox and diff - so if your fitting an RB25 box to an R32 GTST be careful when deciding to go the one-piece option.

Well i rang a place today to arrange my new tailshaft to suit the R25 bos on my R32...and was told not to bother with a 1 piese unit :laugh:

I said its what i want though as im told they are lighter and better, and, well just better :)

His reply was they woudl be too long for a 1 pce, and a 2 pce woudl be far superior. Considering this guy does race cars, inclusing a friends Gibson Grp A car recently...im taking whatever advice he gives me :rofl:

So 2 pce fo rme, but im curious to hear that ppl running 1 pce find it more responsive.

I found absolutely no difference in response with the one-piece (metal) over a 2-piece (metal).

I think you received some good advice from this dude :(

if there was any advantages id say that there is no centre bearings (less maintenance) and its damn lighter. I can pickup my 1 piece with 1 hand.

I put mine in as i fitted the rb25 box, and havent had any problems. It was probably easier to make a single shaft with the ends i needed than mod a 2 piece.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
