Hey guys, the old man has a pretty much stock 300ZX, 1991 model, non turbo, 4 seater. Problem with it is that it's noisy as hell to drive. Now we've tracked down this problem, it being the tailshaft and for some reason Nissan's 2 piece tail shaft is god damned noisy. We got it replaced a year or two ago with another Nissan shaft however the sound came back rather quickly although it did help for a while. My dad spoke to the boys at Nissan and they said the only way to get around this is to go for a full piece tail shaft rather than the two piece that came with the car. My question is, will this remove the sound and fix it for good or will it just turn out to be a waste of money? What I really would like is to hear from others who've gone through this and speaking to a few other 300 owners, it seems like this problem is very common.
Also, if anyone has any other suggestions how to get over this noise/vibration that the tailshaft is generating then please, lets hear it...
