Single PC Drive shaft

Properstyle · 02-10-2021, 11:15 AM

Looking if there is any company that has produced a aluminum or steel single pc drive shaft for a E90m DCT. I know there are Carbon fiber options by M factory but I do drag race (yes I know m3 not best choice of car) but I've normally see the rearcoupler seperate from the shaft on most aftermarket carbon options that have been used by others while drag racing. I would prefer a metal drive shaft.

DSS will make whatever you measure

I have a DSS on my turbo E36 M3 that I used to drag race a lot. I hate the DSS but it has not broken. Broke 2 transmissions, 2 stock driveshafts, 2 diff output stubs, 2 clutches, but not the DSS. Very clunky since it does away with the front flex coupler. Mine has a front ujoint and rear CV. I think the E9x version has CV front and rear and that is probably better.
