Uhuh, im using the whole drive shaft from an eg6. Im pretty sure you can use DC2 aswell or any other B-series ones.

[egSi]

[Eclipsor]

Is the eg6 different to the audm del sol shafts? Cuz that didn't work did it?

[egSi]

i never had eg2 ones to try cam :thumbdwn:

[Eclipsor]

oh that's right. They were your originals hey. Don't mind me. Carry on. Just steal jasons. :D

[bennjamin]

any B series entire shafts suited to EG6/DC2/DC4 should work fine Trav.
I have DC2ITR ones in mine - work 100% fine.
The problem is that your car is too low...THAT breaks drive shafts prematurely :)

[Chris_F]

^ hehe that's what i said... it's the price you pay for being that low

im runnin B shafts with crx outers & 205/17's hooked to a B18,i know its not the same car but mine are still goin strong after 6 months,copped a fair bit of abuse too.

Are u wheel hoppin or something?

U got me thinkin bout ordering a spare set.....

[Snoop_gee]

HASPORT offer very good driveshaft complete with HP(horse power) ratings in which what they can handle.

Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3

sure it cost that extra bit more but seriously its worth it. Of course stage 1 wouldnt be teh best choice from wat i hear.

TRAV: I'll go you halves in a set of those for my car and you can have my OEM Shafts ;)

[egSi]

it can be a very big factor. Maybe not JUST being low , but other issues as well putting extra strain on the shafts. Its a common bitch n moan from "low" US boys on Honda-tech etc.

[[[d a n n y]]]

dont think breaking shafts comes into the lowness it's more like CV boots ripping.
just IMO dont quote me though

[VT3C]

Travvv

I'm using ITR shafts with the original Del-Sol intermediate.

my car is very low also and havnt had any troubles.

I know that the RHS D-series one will fit but it's not balanced for use with the equal-length shafts nor to handle the 30-40 more PS.

[egSi]

thanks for that guys :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
