Will be going in tomorrow and then have to find a nice long empty street to test to see if my high speed driveline vibration is gone.

Nice shaft,... I remember getting mine to get rid of the same problem. Those things work like a charm and also make the underside of the car look a lot nicer as well.

It's a nice improvement over stock. If you think thats nice you should try mine, i'm still amazed how much smoother my car is compared to the aluminum one I had. For the price, you cannot beat the aluminum one.

Was thinking about the carbon fiber one too but super expensive. Aluminum one was great for the price, lol. I picked it up at murrays speed and custom for 249, they price matched it to summit's price so i had no complaints. Plus put it under the dealer so no taxes, lol.

Great upgrade! I did this about 3 years ago and it was immediately noticeable.

I did my motor mounts last August and that was a huge improvement for smothing out the front end and suspension. After doing some research on here and elsewhere, I went with the convertible motor mounts for our year (even though I have a coupe), because the convertible mounts are supposed to be heavier duty than our stock ones. The fit was perfect as expected.

How much do carbon fiber driveshafts cost? Carbon's gone up in price quite a bit since the 787 is eating up a lot of the supply.

I got mine exceptionally cheap, $250, new they go for $550 - $1500. Mine new is $750 I believe. I got mine from a guy who took it off his race prepped 98, I called the company who manufactures it for new u joints, snap rings, and yoke, and they ended up replacing it all for me for free!! I didnt realize my friend was the production manager there at the time.

Ohh and it's 14lbs total.
