I know Jake @ EPS was doing some tester driveshafts but I haven't followed up with him to see how that went..

Just curious if you ever got the vibrations figured out on higher speeds! I have to replace mine and wondered what the end result here was because I am going to do the same thing and measure my x sedan so driveshaftshop and make custom rear one...they already told me that they will not make me one for the front due to “clearance and little joint issues”

Thanks for your time

Sorry I have been preoccupied with rebuilding for more power. I will revisit the driveshaft later on once the car is back on the road. At this rate I don't expect to get to it until next year.

My trans is completely shot. Having stall converter put in and etc. Still working on diagnosis. Car is at shop on lift and I will have rear driveshaft removed and measured for g37x sedan. I will probably be ordering from thedriveshaftshop once I get the measurement.
Still debating on the carbon fiber since this is my daily and would love to cut down on felt vibrations and etc. For me if the carbon fiber is proven to be more “comfortable” to ride with I will spend the extra. Not so interested in the 3 lbs or so less the carbon fiber is, but will take it.

Nows the time, if anybody wants to help me set up a group buy for x sedan guys let me know. I’m sure it would make cheaper also. I’m ESTIMATING $550 or less for aluminum. What you guys think?

sorry for confusion. It would be a one piece. I’m trying to go away from the 2 piece

I have a carbon driveshaft from EPS for my manual sedan. They told me that the coupe and sedan share the same driveshaft (same transmission type of course).
