Where would be the best place to go to for these?

Im running a 180 plated diff in my rear end, and the car is RWD, Ive gone through 4 shafts/cv's so far, ranging from the Type R RA, to the UK/JDM STI 8 stuff, have been looking all over for honest opinion on shafts, with reasonable pricing, as if I'm paying alot of money, i want to know its going to hold for pretty much forever!

Any advice guys?

Cheers.

A mate is getting some made I will find out who off ,BTW he broke an "unbreakable shaft" one of a pair he bought from the states that came with a lifetime guaranteee ,the guarantee is no good when you've spent all the money on a rally and are stuck in a Welsh forest !!!

You can get GKN shafts which are pretty much unbreakable apparently , but at about £1200 each you would hope they would be.
They are probably ok with 4wd as the fronts are doing a lot of work , but with just RWD I wouldn't like to say
