Tomei 80 and DSS aluminum drivwshat ???

I have searched on here and looked on Google...I want to know if anyone is running the Drive Shaft Shop aluminum drive shaft and a Tomei 80. I need to know, if the Tomei 80 will fit, with the drive shaft and if so, how's the clearance ? If you have this setup or have seen photos of the setup... I'd really like to see some pictures, showing the clearance... I am wanting to buy the Tomei 80 ASAP,and already have the drive shaft installed....Thanks.

Carbon drive shaft but should be the same size or around the same as the aluminum...pretty sure they run the 80 @FT-86 SpeedFactory

Thanks, but I've seen that video before. The aluminum is quite larger than the carbon fiber one. I've been told it should fit, but I just want to make damn sure it does and still have enough clearance, before I buy a Tomei 80.

I ordered this exhaust, any how..

The aluminum driveshaft is only 0.25" larger in diameter than the carbon driveshaft. Not sure on the diameter of the tomei 80 but the aluminum driveshaft fits just fine with the perrin 3" resonated exhaust if that helps any.

It will fit just fine. Promise, and we'll back it up with no return fee's or etc if ordered from us, but I know it fits.

Order already confirmed # 5269

Thanks, for the reassurance... and thanks for your customer service. IMHO you guys are the best frs/brz parts vendor, in the business. I have ordered all my products, for my FRS from ya'll and will continue to do so, in the future.
