Interested. 
 

I do however have a few questions if these things are flops. If they vibrate and carry on like pork chops are they able to be returned? I was part of the ACPT carbon shaft group buy some 12 years ago and it was nothing but a nightmare. From guys destroying shafts and picking them up off the road to trying to get them balanced two and three times.

hey team, really do apologise for the late response.

we have over 12 and closer to 14 with Predator1,  but coming close to the end now. (10th)

I have had no fitment issues or any for that matter with my S15 Monstar Shaft. There is an increase in noise under deceleration but that is also to do with having a Direct clutch billet twin plate combined with it. im super happy with the outcome and wanting to buy one for my GTR. These are very well built. 

As for the slip Yoke, that question would need to be asked at Alpha Omega directly as I am just a customer not the engineer behind these. 

Im sure the custom length should be fine as long as its the same connections both ends

If anyone is wanting to proceed, please contact me on 0423972346 to lock in a spot 

 

kind regards

Spoke to Alpha, confirmed slip yoke due to both sides being flanges as expected.

Custom length is no issue.  Will need to remove your current tailshaft to measure.

Being Australian company, hopefully will see good after sales.  Very helpful on the phone.

They have an article explaining how angles and bushes are the bigger causes of vibration that a 2 piece can mask.

you want to be the middle man recruiting buyers and the leader of this. maybe you should ring them up and ask them about these concerns. are you expecting everyone ring them one by one? or you do it and pass the info on to everyone. my 2 cents

I tried calling them today but I must have missed their call back (private number)

Would be nice to secure it for the 15+ pricing

 

Thanks Butters for calling up and confirming the slip yoke. Legend.

Rb26debt sorry to disappoint you mate

We are at 18 atm Team. Im going to contact anyone who has shown interest to confirm they are in, as Friday is the lock out day.

So if any of you haven't contacted me already or receive contact from me again by Thursday arvo, please contact me on 0423972346. 

Cheers

How's this progressing? Is everyone still going ahead or has the pin been pulled?

If you contacted him you would know?

Yeh cheers that's about as helpful as testicular cancer. Alpha omega say they're waiting on everyone to pay up before proceeding.

    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
