My drive shaft from ShaftMasters came in today!

Here is the story:

I called and asked for david i immediately got to speak to him we were talking and I told him im not sure if i should get aluminum or steel.
He asked me "what are you going to be doing with the car".
So i told him "My z is my weekend warrior. I'll drift, autox, road course, and participate in various types of time trials and some time at the drag strip.

So he said hands down go with steel. It can take so much abuse its ridiculus.
So I ordered right there on the spot thursday.

It only took 6 days (4 days if you don't include the weekend) for him to get it custom made and painted then shipped across the US.. I am extremely impressed I highly recomend him!

I yea I went with steel for multible reasons. But the main reason is obviously durability.

Here are the pics.

Now look at the package it came in, it looks damn near bullet proof. I kinda messed the box up when i was opening it.. Before i started trying to get it open the box it was in great shape.

It has rivets holdling that metal thing in there.

Now the actual shaft notice the quality and attention to detail. Also when i am standing near it i can still smell the paint :)

No core charge because everything is brand new!

The quality and customer service was amazing. Fast free shipping!

Anyone who is in the market to buy a high performance driveshaft or just a replacement would have to be crazy not to buy it from shaftmasters.

Agreed. They have been nothing but helpful every time I've called. Can't ask for more really.

I have used Shaftmasters for 4 different projects.

The "Droptop From Hell" had a Shaftmasters aluminum shaft that was just awesome...

Most recently, Becky's Z got a Shaftmasters driveshaft for the RB swap (also perfect).

Good guys, great product, and they've taken real good care of us for a long time.
