Thanks for the info! I didn't realize there was a difference. I still have stock ign so I had planned to get the MSD with 2 step....You think this would be a good choice? I don't have to do the red one do I? Someone said they now sell a chrome one? Anyone have the part number for it?
Dan....your right....I couldn't find brand new inner CV stub so I can get them Cryo frozen. Anyone know where I can find them?
I did pick up a diff today and I happen to have a spare CV stub. Trying to be able to reuse the Kaaz. Hopefully things go well tomorrow.

Also....how much would both inner CV stubs run me and how much should I expect to cryo freeze them?
Once I do this......what will most likely be the next thing I will break? I'm guessing my weak point is the 430 gears and the J-spec Tranny I have. I'm guessing the car is a high 10 sec car and I'm doing a 1.4? 60ft.

Thanks Dan.....The spare inner CV joint I have is the wrong side....damn! It's off of a Auto RX-7 that was stock....would it still most likely snap like a twig?
I talked to the guys at Hinson Supercars and they said they ran a 9.22 with stock inner CV stubs.....Maybe they weren't getting the 60ft I am?
One last thing.....Anyone know how much harder is it to twist the outer CV stub? Is it much stronger then the inner one?

The inner ones seem to be the easiest ones to go, the outers, some people have issues with, and some don't. Ari had trouble with his once, in the parking lot pulling the car around! However he hasn't ever had a problem on the strip. WHat might have caused this fluke is a long story. I have had trouble in the past, but if you do the same as I recommended with the inner, they will hold fine.

I have tried to get brand new inner CV stubs and they are on back order.....My cost on them is $226.88 each.
or I can order the whole Axel which would give me both inner and outer and I can probably sell the axels for $805.43 my cost from Mazda but they are also on backorder. I would like to get the car ready for the next race on July 8th.....anyone have any other ideas? Thanks to an idea Ari gave Mike and Mark at PIR Motorsports, my Kaaz plate is at a machine shop and will be salvaged. Now what? Just wait for parts to become availible? Any other vendors have inner CV stubs in stock?

The part numbers I got for these parts are.....
22520 for the Inner CV stubs (same one for each side)
and
MA10-25-500 is the part number for the entire axel with inner and outer CV stubs
Can anyone verify this is correct?

On old set up they were 1.55.......That was with 431hp.....Now with about 500hp I'm guessing I was going to get about a 1.49 if I wouldn't have snapped the inner CV stub. My tire tempature was exactly 180 degrees.
It sounds like you will start snapping the inner CV stub at 1.52 60ft times or faster.

I think you are on thin ice.....I'm shocked you haven't done the same thing that happened on mine! Your car has more power then mine.

Will work for horsepower
I try not to shock the drive train by side stepping the clutch i preload and try a little slip at 7,000 with 11.5 et's. Im sure its a matter of time thats why the old tralior goes racing with me.

I'd try driveshaft shop. See if they use new inners and outers.

I called them....maybe I just talked to the wrong person, but they just told me they don't sell them. The guy didn't seem very interested in helping me.....I think I'm just going to put my car back to the set up I had before and not be as hard on it and just wait for the parts to come in. I hope Mazda isn't going to discontinue the part.

Well, I hope I don't break them again tomorrow! Theirs a heads up race and I'm basically got the exact same set up as I had when I broke last time! This time, since I can't adjust my rear coilovers due to a broken ****....I am going to run 20 lbs of air in the tires to get them to slip.
I really wish I could find some brand new inner CV stubs, but they are backordered everywhere!

Well, I didn't break......I ended up just running with 22lbs of air in my MT Street ET's....I was only cutting 1.71 60 ft times. Ended up finding a new problem.....My secondary injectors were leaking and only boosting to 1.03 bar. Still ran a 11.9 @ 117 so pretty sure I have a good chance to click off that ellusive 10 here for the next race on Aug 26th.

Oh hell yea! Keep us posted!
BTW....Ended up running a 11.2 @ 123mph. Still didn't really launch it since I have stock inner CV stubs. It would be nice to know that I'm not going to break the same thing again.
