I've got an ACPT carbon d/s on my '07 STi and love it.
If there's going to be an application for the FR-S / BRZ that's a collaboration between two great companies, it'll be worth the money - without question. Thanks for bringing a great product to market for this community! |

im going to guess its higher being we use a high modulus tube instead of a reg modulus tube, the joint will break before the bond or tube. ours is actually 14.2lbs but i round up. sorry. with the aluminum ends i sure its lighter.
p.s. the 2.25 high modulus tube we use on the WRX/STI has broken several trans case output shafts, also if you need a stronger one we can do the 3.25 tube also |

im very sorry you had that issue, i know the problem well. we make the spline area out of chromoly and have it thru hardened, after the hardening is done the end where the spline is welded is supposed to be tempered back. there was a run the heat treater did not do this on and the welds broke due to hydrogen embrittlment . im here to help, if you ever need anything send me a pm. let me know what you lost in the process and ill take it off the bill with a reduction in price as well.

Quick Q, under load, then releasing load (like shifting 1st to second fast) causes a sound like someone unlocking their car (that faint beep like a horn sound) is that normal operation for a CF driveshaft? While it loads unloads quickly?
