I was just scanning through some aftermarket parts for the Lude here, and seen these uprated Fidanza drive shafts. I had a quick search on here and couldn't find any threads on them. They're obviously for high HP applications, and I wasn't thinking of buying them or anything, but just wondered if anyone had come across them before or had any comments on them ?

 

I'd like to bring this thread back, as I would like to know as well if these axles are any good.

 

they have a 300 hp rating and they are around $215 an axles. not too sure on the quality of the axle, they seem to do ok in the civic as i have heard from a couple people that use them.

 

are they lighter then stock, or they good cuz they are rated at 300 hp?

 

I wouldn't care if they were lighter. I'm just tired of breaking re-man axles and if I'm going to upgrade, I want something stronger than stock. The only other one's I know of are the driveshaft shop ones, which are like $750 a pair. These are only like $430 a pair. I'm planning on pushing 400whp, which I know is higher then the fidanza's rating, but they've gotta hold up better than stock ones.

 

well hp doesnt break axles torque does. also even if hp did your not making 400 hp from the launch so you should be good.

 

Ahhhhhh, very good points. I didn't even think of it that way. I'll have to pick a pair up and try them out. Thanks.

You get what you pay for. Fidanza's aren't going to come close to the DSS axles.

 

I'm willing to bet they arn't as nice as DSS axles, but I need to know if they will be adequet for my car. You get what you pay for holds true for most things in life.
