F8X M3/M4 CF Drive shaft mod

[usdmej]

hoping not to dampen the mood as the platform interchangeability and potentially low cost of this mod is very interesting

but having to drop your subframe just to install/remove a one piece driveshaft seems potentially really . . . . tedious

Just bought one myself from eBay! $300 mwhahahahahaha. I'm almost certain once it catches on, the resellers are going to jack up their prices to at least double. Another project for the M3 down the road, I got so much already to do.

If anyone needs these locally in SoCal, I will have some available for pickup.

I have a spare one of these sitting around from my m3 touring build. I’d love to have it shipped and modified. Please post shops that are open to do the work/price

Curious to see the weight delta once someone has it done. Realoem has them at about a 1kg delta.

Lol, I saw that 160 ebay one. My input would be to make sure have it inspected too before buying. You never know which f80 has a really bad accident it could damage the driveshaft. I luckily found one local for 200 and was able to physically inspect myself and touch it to see it all looked ok. But still hard to tell since its spun and bonded. We're all hoping the bond is still good. Which I think so as long as the car wasn't in a crazy wreck.

Just ordered one myself, looks like MPartsWW on ebay has the best prices on these. This could become one of the best value proposition mods for the E46 M3.

If someone is feeling ambitious, I can see a market where one buys these driveshafts used and sells them pre-modified for E46 M3 owners. They would sell better than the overpriced Taiwanese carbon shafts.

Don't worry, I have 4 more ready to go.

LOL I want one!

Can you post exact part number please? Thanks

Don't know if this helps or not, but this is the one I purchased.

lol. My best friend bought 1 after I ordered, too.

If this catches on, it's gonna suck for f8x owners that need a replacement 🤣

Haha, I am even thinking about buying a spare one for a possible second build so I can still get one cheap.

Glad to see I was able to spark some interest on this.

There were a ton available, I looked before I posted or I would have bought one already too, lol
