I know some race teams are having their axles cryo dipped(frozen) to stregnthen them and some are just replacing them with heavier ones...

FIXED IT
Ok, I went to a scrapyard and found 2 totaled Z32's. And since we use an R200V on our 350z, I took the shaft out of an N/A 300zx and fixed the head(hub side) of a TT300zx
and I got the exact shaft as the OEM
cost only $200
and here's a pic of my broken shaft
p.s. notice it was broken from the actual shaft, not the joint.
