The relative inertia of your driveshaft to the the flywheel is so low it's not even funny.



Don't waste your money unless there's something wrong with yours.

Could be. Could be lots of other things too, unfortunately.

just figured you all might like the know that our stock driveshafts are made of aluminum. you're not gonna gain a damn thing by attempting to upgrade

i bought a driveshaft from DSS when my u-joints went out. it's a really nice piece, and has replaceable joints. i'm not positive, but i think i paid just under $300 for it.
