Hell Ya !

Definitely the most fun so far. I need to tighten up my Suspension now with some more mods.

I think I will go for some new sways Frt. & Rr....and maybe some new Shocks/Stuts. I don't think I can afford Coilovers.

Also still need to get that Rear Diff. with the cooling fins.

with a drive shaft snapped you pretty much have a rolling chassy.......

so if your not rolling? then the loss of torque or sudden jolt on fracture could have broken some spider gears or ring/pinion..........do you have a base model or vlsd equipped 350z???

- Jack the rear of the car up and turn one rear wheel at a time and watch the pinion flange where the drive shaft connects......count the rotations and see if all is well.


LOL at thinking they would cover you under warranty....why didn't you raise the car prior to going at least??

hit up a junk yard for a drive shaft......easy...i see them there all the time..

Oh...and POST PICS!!!!!

that ruined your chance at even attempting to get warranty coverage for sure...tow fee would have been worth it....

not sure how much drive shafts go for at the junk yard, but you also have to find one that isn't damaged......new, i bet is pricey...as its Carbon fiber...

and now you possibly have more wrong with your car that would have been worth it....

humm?? being a base model and not rolling in reverse??? drive shaft section is all removed so nothing connecting at all or mounted at all right???
