Acpt Carbon Drive Shaft Problems.

[SkylineSky]

Hello Everyone,

just thought I would share my experience with ACPT carbon tail shaft. I see there is a Thread that goes way back about them as well. I bought a High HP one from them in December, was in the car a GTR R34 for 2 weeks then is sheared of at the yoke... I rang them they supplied another one, put it into the car and the balance was that bad I couldn't drive the car... I have since spent another $700 to get it balanced, the front uni was in back to front, the weights were out that much it was a joke. It was suppose to be Dynamically balanced in the good old US.

I rang them and spoke to them about it and they didnt want to know about it... If I have more trouble it will go into making stubbie coolers...

My recommendation is never buy one of ACPT drive shafts, If I had of known before I would have bought the PST carbon shaft, they are a lot better...

Dont not get one...

Regards Dave

Yeah what a drama they were! had so many problems! i've still not installed mine.

Yes. Well. Mine has been in, out, balanced, back in and now coming back out to be thrown in the dumpster. Piece of rubbish. Waste of time, money, effort.

does a proper Carbon drive shaft make much of a difference? how much would a PST one go for?

Did anyone get there shaft in and have no drama.

Mines sitting in storage shed in Japan as havent decided what to do with it.

Thought I'd put it on Yahoo japan as a giant dildo

I thought I could advertise it as long black shaft !!

[Piggaz]

Maybe they can take my long black rod too. Two for the price of one.

i think there were a few guys who said theirs were ok..

what a f**kin nightmare tho.

[BLACK BEAST]

PST are definitely better than ACPT

ithought it had been proven many times before that carbon shafts are unreliable and break more often than the factory items nearly all the fastest gtrs in aus run factory shafts what a waste of huge amounts of money better spent elsewhere

I've never had any problem with mine.

I bought mine a long time ago and not from the group buy. I think they had a bad patch for the group buy.
