Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft
#17
IMO, don't waste your time or money. The alum. driveshaft on the G is only 6" longer and most likely only weighs 2-3lbs more. Years ago when I had my Z28, I had the stock steel driveshaft swapped out for a lighter alum shaft because the steel one had balance problems. The alum shaft weighed 6lbs less, but I never saw any improvement on the track or during driving. If you want to make a noticable difference in terms of handling, braking, ride, and acceleration, take your $1500 and buy some nice lightweight rims.
BTW, there's nothing terribly exotic about using CF for driveshafts. GM has been using CF driveshafts on their trucks since the early 1990s.
