mannyvig Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Just had our driveshaft modified (auto rb20 swapped with rb25 manual). The yolks were different spline count so the company ordered a new yolk and installed it. Now that its in the car it only slips over the trans output shaft about 2" the yolk is about 4.5" long total. So for right now we are babying it and not driving it much. We are thinking about having a 1" spacer made for where it bolts to the r200 kinda like lifted truck guys do untill the money is availabe for a longer shaft. It should put about 300-325 at the wheels soon. So what i need to know is if i should be worried? Another tech at work says his scca car is only in about 1.5" and its fine bt i trust this forum more thanks manny ps it will be pushing 275's street tires in the rear never slicks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Hawk Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'd be concerned, yeah - that just doesn't seem like enough engagement. BTW - what did you do with your stock yoke? I am hurting for a 280z R200 yoke to throw on my R200 going into my 240z. I guess the R200 I bought came from a ZX, so it won't mate.

Clifton Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 3" would be better but I wouldn't worry. 300-325 rwhp on a small motor (2.5l) is probably less than 300 ft/lbs tq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
