F8X M3/M4 CF Drive shaft mod

[EthanolTurbo]

I’m game to do a test if it installs without dropping the rear end! Alternatively we can take some detailed measurements of the stock shaft against the modified one to verify you got the dimensions sorted out with the last go around. I moved down to SD a few months back, it’s been a long time coming!

Awesome yeah, either works. You have to rock the diff backwards to install.

I'll PM you my phone #.

I think grape mint is what he smokes, he probably copied you. Message me on IG so I can start your driveshaft conversion.

Hahahahhahah YES! I can't find you bud. Can you please add me 060motorsports on ig

Hah, when did you move to SD? I thought you were in the Bay. I can go grab you a non-telescoping CF driveshaft and take your donor shaft to the drive shaft shop in Garden Grove for the conversion. Or you can test my already converted CF DS.

This is so fucking true, but at least he is very consistent with his schwarma/hookah.

That's great! Keep up the good work and i'll be ready too, hopefully.

Sharocks is useless, unless there is a schwarma or halal guys meal and hooka involved you'll never hear from him again

Damn...what happened to the engine?

At 252k miles it finally shit the bed, cylinder #6 has 50 psi of compression and was blowing clouds of smoke out the exhaust. Now I need a donor to swap my cams etc onto. 😮💨

I’ve also got a spare e46 M3 driveshaft in San Diego right now if we’ve got motivation to knock out another..

Ok all, I'm back to working on this. Scored an LCI telescoping CF driveshaft for $200! I am planning to shorten it to work on my M2. I will also be giving my CF driveshaft to Sharocks to test on his Dinan S3R since my E46 M3 needs a new motor and uh I need to source a new one and find someone to install it properly.

Progress, right? Guys? 🫣

I'd still like to do this if someone could get a good source and shop especially if it's in the Atlanta GA area for me lol

Yeah, would be awesome if someone could condense this 27 page thread into a single post with what you need, benefits, and shops that have successfully done the conversion.

Please. I still have one sitting I'd like to have altered to install. I didn't go with the fixed length version, which I thought was the better option…hoping I was correct
