Driveshafts - Type S vs Std

Post by Mudgey » Mon Jun 10, 2013 6:49 pm

Hello,

Does anybody have any information on the differences between the Type S driveshafts and the non ATTS equiped cars? I just found out recently they are different lengths? Does anybody have any end to end dimensions fully compressed or just the difference in lengths?

Cheers!

They are different. The left driveshaft is split into 2 with an intermeadiate drive shalf that penetrates the atts system side anal.
No point in dimensions as they are completely different to each other.

There is no intermediate shaft on the cars with ATTS as that's where the ATTS sits, the non ATTS cars have an intermediate shaft but I have heard the outboard shafts are different in length and I need to find out the exact size differences.

Drivers side is the same but the passengers side where the ATTS is uses an intermediate shaft into the ATTS and tranny.
