What do you guys think? I was cruising ebay and came across these guys Z1motorsports selling 1 piece driveshafts for the z32s. I emailed them (was looking for a yolk), and just threw the question if they could make me one?

They said if I sent them the 240sx rear flange they could make me one for $325. Of course id need to provide accurate measurements which I would need to go over with them.

Seeing if anyone has heard any good or bad things about these guys? They seem to be good people.

heres what i found on ebay:

I'm gonna call them later to go over details. Any opinions would be great.

forgot, does anyone know which yolk will work on the RB25 transmission? is it the N/A or the TT or does it matter?

I live 15 minutes down the street from Z1. I'm friends with a guy that used to work there, and he told me Z1 gets all its driveshafts done by a company in Atlanta...only problem is I can't remember the company's name. But guess it doesn't really matter since I think $325 is a pretty good price.

They seem to be pretty good guys to deal with :)

bryson, i havent called the place you showed me. z1 says just send them my 240sx rear flange and measurements and theyll get it done for 325.

but the place you showed looks better. seems like for a max of 325 i could get a aluminum driveshaft made. it could be even cheaper.

so i still need to call that place. i think i emailed them, but havent gotten a response yet.

ahh ok , ya I haven't called the place I showed you either.. I am waiting until I get the engine in before I stress it... I'm thinking I'm going with the STM mount kit.. which means the only person who could give me the measurements ahead of time would have to be someone who also used the STM kit. the Z1 shaft looked pretty nice in that pic....so I was just wondeirng, but ya the link I showed you seems to have real nice shafts for a great price.
