Driveshaft Shop Carbon and Aluminium Lightweight Driveshafts - Video

Got all the normal bolt-ons already for your car?? Looking for something else to get some more out of your FR-S or BRZ?? Check out these lightweight, one-piece driveshafts from DriveShaft Shop. A quick and easy way to free up some power and lose some weight!!

So easy, we even did a video for you guys about them

Disclaimer: You don't need to drain your transmission fluid for this install. We were going off of past experience with other cars that would drain a good amount of fluid..... ( But it is a great time to do some proper fluid maintenance as well. )

I ordered my carbon version driveshaft from Yo a long time ago and I have been very pleased with it so far. Zero issues. You know you want to buy one

Great video!

i notice that the descriptions are slightly different.
will only the carbon driveshaft produce this "different" sound?

never mind. i think it means less noise

So what are the actual differences between carbon and aluminum driveshafts besides the one pound difference? They're both going to hold more than enough HP than I'll throw at em and the price is leading me to the aluminum version. Any difference in performance/feel in the two?
