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.

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.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
