Default 6 Speed Carbon Fibre Propshaft

Hi guys I have decided to put my project on hold for a while. So I'm getting rid of a few things that are just sat there un fitted.

I have my 1 piece Carbon Fibre Propshaft for sale. Made by the best in the business Driveshaft Shop!
It's designed to fit all 6speeds with r180 rear diff.
Less Half the weight.
1 piece, so gets rid of the middle knuckle, creating a much more positive driveline.
As they Twist a little compared to the OEM steel they are kinder to the transmission.
Billet aluminium Yokes

Rated to 850bhp at the wheels and 180mph

It's Brand spanking new and was only removed from the packaging to take these pictures. Bought at the end of last year, I'm not overly fussed weather it sells or not, but it is just sat there.

It really is a beautiful piece of engineering, it's bloody gorgeous in fact.
Proper bit of kit!
Priced at £990
Any Questions please feel free to ask

Hi, it should be a case of un bolting the Oem item and replacing it with this one.
Probably have to drop the exhaust off.
Weight saving is about 5.5/6kg it's basically half the weight of Oem so huge weight saving


thanks

I presume it's this part which you're selling? http://www.driveshaftshop.com/import...on-fiber-shaft

It costs $1,049.99 (£800) + United Parcel Service Worldwide Expedited delivery $318.70 (£243), so £1043 delivered (with a 12 month warranty). UK customs duty and tax due on top. It would help us if you could let us know how much it cost to buy in total? I've had my eye on buying one of these for my Type R track car. Is the warranty transferrable (Driveshaft Shop website doesn't say) and if so how many months are left, since it was bought? Please clarify for us please, as it would cost quite alot to return to the US if faulty (at the buyers expense as they won't cover it). Many thanks in advance and either way, good luck with the sale. I hope you complete your project one day!
