Supertec Racing Carbon Composite Driveshaft - R32 R33 R34 GTR
Note: Once the order is made you confirming that you agree to approximate lead time stated for manufacture and no refunds can be made inline with our special order policy as listed in our terms and conditions. Typical lead times are approximately 5-8 weeks. If for what ever reason there any operation or logistical delays we will contact you and advise. Introducing our new lightweight dry carbon pre preg composite driveshaft using premium quality Japanese Toray carbon fibre yarn and manufactured under pressure in an autoclave to ensure a lightweight, extremely strong and durable driveshaft weighting between 7.4 and 7.6kg depending on model. Featuring our unique dual CV (constant velocity) joints for smooth operation and minimising vibrations over a conventional universal joint/constant velocity hybrid steel or carbon shafts.

Key advantages of a carbon driveshaft over a 2 piece steel OEM driveshaft: Lightweight: Carbon driveshafts are significantly lighter than traditional metal driveshafts, reducing rotational mass and improving overall vehicle performance. Increased Strength: Carbon fibre is known for its high strength to weight ratio, providing improved durability and resistance to bending and torsional forces. (up to 4000nm constant torque) Smoother Operation: Carbon fibre dampens vibrations better than metal, resulting in smoother operation and less stress on other drivetrain components. Our unique dual end CV joints offers a vastly smoother running when compared to CV and UJ hybrid shafts - which need indexing and can still have vibrations at a specific rpm window. Corrosion Resistance: Unlike metal, carbon fibre is not susceptible to rust or corrosion, making it ideal for use in harsh winter environments. Enhanced Performance: Carbon driveshafts can improve acceleration, throttle response, and fuel efficiency due to their reduced weight and rotational inertia. Longer Lifespan: With proper maintenance, carbon driveshafts can have a longer service life compared to metal counterparts, reducing the need for bearing or universal or CV joint servicing or replacement. Installation Note: Once installed the Supertec Racing Carbon Driveshaft has a 10mm telescopic travel between the gearbox and differential. It is crucial to ensure that there are no other objects within 20mm of the driveshaft. *Weight will vary depending on model between 7.48-7.8kg. R32 GTR driveshaft for Getrag being the shortest and weighing in at 7.48kg/16.50lbs (See pictures) and the R33 GTR 5sp driveshaft being the longest weighing at around 7.9kg.
