I don't have any vibration whatsoever at any speed or RPM. I most definitely feel a difference in acceleration on my 6MT coupe. It's nice. However there is noise associated with it. Not a lot. Not all the time, but it's seems to be most noticeable a low speed while accelerating. It sounds hollow. Almost like the sound of a hollow thin walled aluminum tube being dragged on the ground. Of course it's spinning not dragging, but that's the best description can think of. The weight savings is mostly in the shaft itself, although losing the bearing helps some too. The shaft is slightly larger in diameter but lighter weigh material and it seems to have thinner walled tubing than the OEM. Performance wise it's great. The noise isn't loud and I don't hear it when cruising at constant speed, but it is there. Is the performance gain worth the cost? IMO, yes.

Reason: typo
I had a Z1 driveshaft on order for the longest time and than what seemed like years was told we cant get it . From everything everyone tells me about the Z1 is that they like it . The GTM one is interesting . No real pics of it ....

Unless you have a track car, youre simply wasting your money... This is simply a weight savings upgrade as well as a strength upgrade over stock....neither one of us is pushing over 650awhp or rwhp to even begin to need this...

That's complete horse crap. I have one. It makes quite a noticeable difference in acceleration. From a dead stop or at speed. How did you not notice the improvement when you installed yours?

Straight weight reduction? = FALSE
Its a moving, functional part that runs EVERY BIT of your power through to your wheels. How the he// is that wasting your money?
Taking a few parts like caps or hoses and replacing those with "lighter ones", sure, waste of money, but when you're talking about you're Drivetrain, literally every inch your car moves is from THIS PART and how fast it spins. How can you possibly say having a lighter one isn't worth it?
