Item for sale: custom built 1pc tail shaft by Universal Drive Shaft Services.

Location: Brisbane, Northside.

Contact: Tim 0410 544 487

Price: $600ono

Looking for a new home for this tail shaft that came in a car I've bought recently, someone who can make use of it as it is overkill for my intentions. I've put a stock tail shaft in my car.

This will make an excellent addition to some one with a manual coupe, non abs who is chasing big power.

As you'll see in the photos, it's still in as new condition and was very costly to make.

I am open to offers and swaps for clean GTR seats.

txt me anytime.

Thanks.

The tail shaft is of excellent build quality, I can't imagine it ever having a reliability issue. The previous owner of the car had big HP plans for the car which never came about, being the reason for this tail shaft and the ridiculous clutch that I'm also about to take out of it.

There is nothing wrong with these parts I'm removing, just that they are too much for the car as I want it.

As for vibrations, at first I thought this tail shaft was the cause of a vibration the car has but since changing the diff and tail shaft back to stock items, the vibration is still there. So, I can't fault either of those items for causing a vibration as it's still there. I'm now thinking it might be in the rear wheels or something else like that.

I will get some proper measurements tonight but from memory length is a bit shy of 1400mm overall, width would be a bit shy of 90mm and weight would be about 8kg at a guess just from carrying it on the weekend.

My post code is 4053 at home or 4009 at work, can get it picked up from either. Or I can drop it at Pack&Send Brisbane CBD, I called them today and they said roughly $82 to send to Sydney fully insured and tracked, I took a guess on the weight when I spoke to them though.

I have had someone make an offer via PM but have not got back to me to confirm yet.

Hey guys, tail shaft is still available, although there has been some interest, just waiting for someone to pull the trigger.

In addition to this I now also want to sell the clutch that just came out of the car.

I must warn though, as you will see in the photos, this clutch is not very suited to daily drivers.

It was removed from my car as I'll never make enough hp to need it and I'm driving my skyline daily a at the moment.

Only a few months old and hasn't done many k's, just like the tail shaft.

Looking for $1250ono.

No worries, the clutch is much better suited to your car, will be good to see it all back together and racing.

I currently have a $300 offer on the tail shaft, is anyone willing to pay more than that? $400 maybe?

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
