My CVDs need replacing but I was thinking that the composite drive shafts would have less weight and therefore less rotating mass. What do other people think? They would also be cheaper to replace in future.
I may end up buying a Racer kit and transfering the Ti turnbuckles and shock bodies, as this may be a cheaper option than buying all the individual spares that I need????
If you need so many pieces, maybe it's better to buy a new car and swap the accesories to the new car. If you have better accesories you can simply put in the new car. I did it now four times with my TC3 (is like a phoenix)
Take a good look to the IRS plastic CVD's and the Aluminium input shafts, they're worth every penny and with the plastic diffs you reduce to the maximum the inertia on the transom (I've used with mod motors ).
