aparently i need a mazdatrix drive shaft to go from my new turbo tranny to my na diff, wheres the best place to get one?

 

Check the 5th word in your post and you will have your answer!

 

www.mazdatrix.com they'll tell you where to get a mazdatrix driveshaft.

 

...or just drill out the holes on a turbo shaft so it can be used if you upgrade to a T2 rear.

 

or get a t2 diff

 

^ Your kidding right? Don't say stuiped things like that because people might do it.


You can also go to any driveline/drive shaft shop in your area, and they can make you a custom one for ~$200.

 

you could use a auto trans driveshaft.

 

The auto trans driveshaft is too short. IIRC it is just about 1 inch or so too short. The thing you can do is take the auto tranny driveshaft, pull the slip yoke off, purchase a new u-joint from rockford driveline and put it on an N/A driveshaft...

 

AHAA! this explains my mystery shaft!...before my na went i haad replaced the driveshaft.This took some experimentation to find the proper one from the junkyard,and i ended up with 3 in the end.after the turbo swap,i found one that works,but is an inch too short,and i couldn't figure out why? never occurred to me that they made an automatic tranny too
thanx rotary101 for inadvertantly solving my drivetrain worries!

 

Right. Apparently, I didn't run my setup like this on my racecar for 2 seasons. Apparently, mine didn't hold up to drifting a 276rwhp car, clutch-kicking the **** out of it. Right? Don't open your mouth unless you know what you're talking about.

I had mine like that forever, and the only reason it's slightly different now is because I finally upgraded to a T2 rear. Never once had a problem, minus having too much power for the AXLES to handle.

 

yeah right maibe like $300+ i did mine on fleet pride for my old turbo FB and i paid $388 for it and i had to take it back twice to get it rebalance because they couldnt doit right and when i went to do for my turbo swap for my GTU they wanted more. thats why i went to mazdatrix one because was cheaper than local and 10 month right now and i dont have no prob with it
