Advantages of a one piece tailshaft:

  • Weight reduction UAS one peice shaft is less them 10kgs, stock is 14.5kgs.
  • Less drive train power loss
  • More response
  • Fully balanced
  • No middle bearing

Register your interest here.. if we have enough interest we'll get the ball rolling..

Theres a bit of info on these in the Drivetrain section. Most of the info is relevant to Carbon Tailshafts though. The issues people were having with the carbon shafts was they were not balanced properly.

The Cromoly Group Buy tailshafts are balanced and John has been doing them for years in 300zx's. They are the same cromoly tubes as found in high HP door slammers.

I've asked the question about the RB25 box in a 32GTST, they can do if you provide measurements and extra $50 for custom.

Cheers,

Johno

i would be keen but i want to hear more peoples real world experiences with these over the stock 1 not just "They are the same cromoly tubes as found in high HP door slammers". have people realy noticed a difference with these

good question

i have heard that the uas 300zx ran almost 2 tenths faster down the 1/4 mile how true this is....is up to them to tell us which would be nice.

Edited by WARLORD

I'll ask John.P about that one mate.

as for real world exerience I can't comment.. I don't have one yet.

I'm buying one of these because of the weight reduction, strength of the shaft, and my middle bearing is stuffed. i'd rather buy a one piece as it is one less bearing to service.

the exchange policy will be confirmed shortly, i'll see if I can come up with something for the guys who use their cars as daily drivers.

cheers,

johno

To Quote John P

"Yes and consistent with times and a good test. Non turbo and correct but

may have been due to less vibration and power loss as uni's were bad."

I think thats a yes lol..

Cheers

Johno

is that the only way this can hapen as my car is my daily driver and i live 3 hours away

sounds like we need a package deal drive in drive out with the new tail shaft .......a free service would be nice ......maybe if we get some more people.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
