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?

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
