Driveshaft twist
So I have had a major vibration coming from under the car. At first I thought it was the tranny but come to find out my driveshaft has a bend in it like it twisted. Has anyone ever had that problem?

You live in commerce, you drag race it? If so I would assume thats the culprit, although I would think other things would break before the driveshaft would kink.

I wish my car had the power to twist the driveshaft. I think the only way I could get it to bend is by driving into a semi.

Thanks. You did give my ride hell. Maybe you're the culprit. You must now give up the Turbo RX7.
