Tail shaft

[will-82]

I’m going to keep it pretty basic and am only aiming for around the 330-340 mark, I don’t intend on taking it to the strip cause I have a gtr for that. It’s just going to be a quick street car that can dust off a hsv should one annoy me, I should also mention it’s a manual

mine is a manual as well and I believe that the stock standard shaft should be fine.

If you take down to the drags and drop the clutch a lot, then expect to have some issues down the track(pun intended).

I killed the center bearing of a reconditioned (at hardy spicer) tailshaft in around a month. If your clutch bites hard and your gonna give it a bit get a decent tailshaft, not worth the risk.

Your stock tail shaft will be fine for street use!

Hey, just wondering how that carbon fiber driveshaft is going?  I have been in contact with the NZ DSS agent based on what I have read here....  So just wanting to check you haven't encountered any problems before I go ahead and order.  Cheers
