I've reverted back to 2 piece driveshaft now, so I'm moving this on.

Suits RB20 gearbox, and non-ABS diffs (OR ABS diffs with the sensor on the driveshafts, not the nose end).

I'll be 100% honest.

I'm sure it's balanced, but there is a slight mark on the first universal joint (at the yoke).

I don't recall this being there when I first bought the driveshaft, so this could just be the seal I was using not seated properly and rubbing on the face, or the face might not be perfectly flat.

I racked up a few thousand KMs with this driveshaft, and it was just as nice to drive as a 2 piece, it didn't vibrate like a bitch at low or high speeds.

The only drama I had with this tailshaft is the size of the rear gearbox seal needed.

The yoke is slightly thinner on this tailshaft, you need a seal that's 50mm O.D x 34mm I.D x 12mm deep.

(by comparison, the factory seal is 50-35-12)

Paid $450 for it.

Want $250, have considered the 2 main issues with it.

PM me for further details.

Sure.

I'll measure up from the centre of the front uni-joint to the end of the diff flange.

If you want different measurement, do a quick edit in paint or something, of following photo and point out where to/from

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
