*Special* CF-DRIVESHAFTS

..... Good news. I have been able to arrange a special (Forum) deal with ACPT, the leading Carbon Fibre product manufacturer in the US, for the purchase of Carbon Fibre single piece Drive shafts for the Z32 in a group buy. The MINIMUM number in the group buy is an order of 6. The normal price per shaft is AUD$1,770.00 including shipping to your door. The special group buy price is:-

****AUD$1,420.00**** to your door. Including GST.

You can order and pay for your drive shaft over FOUR (4) months An initial deposit of AUD$420.00 is required before the end of November 2006. With the remaining AUD$1,000.00 payable in monthly installments of AUD$250.00 until the end of March 2007 You can of course pay for your shaft earlier for an earlier delivery. For more information on these drive shafts go to our website

Showing the comparison between a stock zed shaft and a carbon fibre shaft.
THE BENFITS ARE:-
50% lighter....Safer....Smoother.... Faster....

 

are they available for 2 seaters?, if so i am in
cheers

 

Do they come as pictured

with the UNI Joints etc?

 

Yes......

.....they are

 

Yes....

...they do

 

HAHA, this this is gonna be the easiest way to go broke!!!
So this will finish at the eng of november I'm guessing, and you have to pay the total $1400 before they get delivered?

 

I am interested, as the monthy installments would lessen the blow.

 

Hi Paul

Ah I new it was a good idea to wait after I recieved your email a few months back. What is the main benefits of the CF tailshaft versus the standard 1 peice remakes floating around. Side note can you get standard one peice in steel.

I know they are up to 50% lighter etc and rated at a ridiculous HP but what else to justify the increased cost.

Sorry mate to put you on the spot

Cheers

What a wise.........

....man you are mate These babies are not for everyone because of the price obviously. BUT all the benefits you mentioned plus more are all shown on our website and the ACPT website link To get right down to it the bottom line would be HP gain, lightness, more speed, and SAFETY. Safety because in the event of a Uni-joint failure, the shaft will not flip your car, at the worst the shaft will just disintegrate on impact. I was actually not really sure that ACPT would agree to this deal. BUT, they did, and it is on for those that want one.

 

Sounds good to me!

I was going to get a steel single piece, for about $700
but at this price, I will spend the little extra and go the carbon fibre

My main motivation is weight savings which is supposed to give the benefit of 5% more power!

Plus if I'm going lightweight underdrive pulley, superlightweight flywheel, then I should also go the lightweight driveshaft

 

Paul how much does it weigh?

 

The figures.....

....from ACPT are:- The 2 seater = 4k's AND the 2+2 = 5.2k's (approximately).

 

that sounds pretty good...

my housemate has a single piece driveshaft sitting in our lounge room, it weighs 8kg for the 2+2 and i believe that stock weighs (runs off to weigh it) 14kg (pretty accurate with bathroom digital scales)

 

If this ends up going ahead im also interested
Cheers.

Hi Col.......

...... thanks for your interest. It looks like we now have 5 comitted to the deal, and we need just one more to make 6. There is no deposit required until the end of November, so that should be plenty of time to have one more join us.

 

If I pay now, when can I get the item?

I'm not sure where I'll be late this year, so I'd like to do all of this now if possible.

Hi Vincent.........

...... thanks for your enquiry. No sense in paying up front now for it unless you really need to, ACPT will not take just one order. They need the minimum of 6 deposits or full payments to give us these prices. If you did not want to pay on the installment plan, you could pay the full price just before the end of November, or now, and I can send your full payment in with the other deposits. The minimum time it takes for a shaft to get to you would be at least 6 weeks. Hope that is all as clear as mud?:

 

Will this be???.......

an ongoing GB offer to the forum???......i.e. everytime 6 members are interested will we still be able to get a great price & pay in installments???......or is this a once only deal????

 

I hope not.......

..... This is the first deal with ACPT and on its success I plan to arrange others with them. Although that has not been discussed, I am sure they will appreciate the ongoing business.

 

Fitament

Do you have fitting instructions?

Im tempted just want to know a bit more about it first in terms of fitting.

My other question is, if I do the deposit then pay off in a few bigger chunks down the track would I be able to get it earlier?
