All i could find on their site was the two S13 ones, with and without abs...i'll just e-mail them i guess...

What is your opinion of it Structure? Much difference? Good fit?

There's no where around here to get it made, so either way i'd have to order it from away...at least with this one i know it'll fit...

1 pc Carbon Fiber Driveshaft 92-98 $850-ish

Enjuku use to have one for S14 but it got taken off the site... I'd call them, I like enjuku allot.

a machine shop can do it, and there are even some places that specialize in it (I have one locally)

No i don't...do you? If not, what kinda trade you talking about? You want my stock one plus cash?

Oh and i e-mailed them but no response yet. And $850 is a bit much. I actually ripped up the mount where the center section bolts to the bottom of the car, so instead of welding in a new peice, drilling and taping it i'll just get a one peice lightweight one instead...always looking for an excuse to upgrade!

Heavy Throttle e-mailed me back(they're quick) and apparently they get their driveshafts from the same guys as Enjuku and the S14 one isn't being made anymore. However they did suggest driveshaftshop.com who have a listing for a aluminum S14 driveshaft. I e-mailed them to find out the price...

....to be continued...

I seem to be the only one with any interest in this...anyway i need a question answered.

Driveshaftshop.com has one for $450 but after contacted them they were unaware that there were 2 different ones, with and without abs. Can someone tell me the differences between the two so i can find out which one they make? Thanks...

The ABS driveshaft is 3/4" shorter. That's why when non-ABS vehicles put on a S14 VLSD, it's a tight fit. That's the case with mine, no problems w/ the install.

PS - I picked up the 1pc Secret Services aluminum DS and didn't think much of it until I picked up the OEM DS - BIG DIFFERENCE!They go for $410.
