So, after the 4th set of broken stub axles, and looking for another replacement set (i had a few sets i was hanging on to) only to discover that finding a stock set is near on unpossible, whats everyone doing here?  I have looked in to the DSS setup as i had this on my old guitar, but i didnt pay 6.4k for it back then either. Has anyone had much to do with the speedtek replacement 300M stub axles? I am yet to break a stock CV, i only seem to break axle bars and stub axles, so the speedtek stuff is kinda attractive at this point in time.

 

Discuss.

Jesus, how are you breaking them ? I converted my blue 32 from 30 to 31 spline with brand new stub axles when the Quaife rear went in - haven't broken a set yet.

I guess the Speetek stuff is the only option I can see apart from the DSS, but it's bloody expensive for what it is.

$1500 USD for rear axle shafts only and $1800 USD for rear 31 spline stub axles is a bit fcking ridiculous when for the same-ish price the DSS is upgraded from stub axle to hub cv and spline with bigger upgraded cv's at $3160 USD.

If / when I break the rear the Drive shaft shop will probably be my pick.

well kunce, 

 

can confirm they seem to be holding up well. Since changing to the speedtek ones, no breakages, and another 150 or so launches. Now im tearing engine mounts like mothers undies on fathers day.

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
