As per request from an XMF member, I am going to attempt to bend a stock Gen 1 driveshaft.
This project is currently nothing but a BNIB Gen 1 Skyline.
But i need some direction, I know that i will probably only use this chassis once and then strip it of all useful parts and scrap it.
Originally I was thinking of just tossing AWD on the car, finding ways of getting lots of torque to the car. Then throwing a brick on it (for grip) and lining it up againts a wall and giving it throttle and seeing what happens...
This may be impossible but im gonna try. I would like people to refrain from comments like: Put all GPM on it < this is stupid, why would i need GPM shocks? The only GPM parts i am going to install is dogbones. I am also obviously not going to install tight tunrs Etc. on the car
Now this is a warning i dont really want to take this very far...I am opne to sugestions, but i am not going to go past a certain point on this...
That point may be when i break the GPM dogbones (i have a feeling this migyht happen) before i bend the shaft...I am not going to go thorugh extensive mods just so i can bypass the dogbones...
One question i already have is do they sell aluminum (or any other metal) bevel gears desinged for xmods...
