yeah so busted my CV joint on the weekend and am looking to replace with new. should I just go with OEM replacements or re-build my current ones or go with an aftermarket option?

My budget is decent so if anyone can recommend anything that would be great.

Thanks guys :thumbsup:

personally, id go aftermarket, ones that are designed for more torque, an power, running oem is fine, but it will go bust again with more abuse on the track, u can get custom ones made up, that are much stronger, but it might be $$$$

This might help with ur findings, http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=1403146

This is what i could find, http://www.gatorracingaxles.com/, http://www.driveshaftshop.com/
as far as custom goes, or off the shelf, but there in the states so might be ages before u even get them, let along paying for em lol

SOme of the other track guys could help u out with local aftermarket drive shafts for b-series, its not common to snap axles as most b-series are street driven

How many Klms have your driveshafts done.From what I can gleen they may be the originals.If so they have done a brilliant job.I would be replacing them with the same if they were mine, already proved themselves.

they were actually rebuilt when I had the my ITB's tuned. So I have had them on the track about 4-5 times i think plus a fair few km's daily driving. See how the BYP supplied shafts go. They seemed to have a good run with them, and they had a lot more power than me. Should be right I reckon :thumbsup:
