i wanted to see what some of you guys have broken stock axles at, i mean broke, like not driveable, need to be towed broke, not just clicking or shaking, i myself have 380 whp and have yet to really break an axle, but i dont launch my car nor do i have slicks.

 

Jeez the only person I know has for sure broken prelude axles due to power was Steve Oaks running 788 whp, and I gotta say he isn't always kind to the car, so that may have had something to do with it.

 

its all in how the car is driven ive seen the break at 200 and hold up to 600

pretty much, and oem are pretty damn good to begin with.

I ran oem's for 5 years and never had a problem, then switched to ENJO's and after a year have broken both of them, one on drag radials and one on slicks, now I'm back to the stock ones which are probably 16 years old lol.

 

ive broke the passenger side sheared the input shaft that goes in the tranny clean off..... im makin maybe 160 it was my fault though wheel hop off the launch and stayed in it ...

 

it depends on the driver....

 

Stock prelude axles are great up to 500whp then they break on occation - over 700whp they both will snap off the line with low air presure and a hard launch. Those days sucked constantly changing axles.

 

i broke one due to age.

 

broke yesterday at sacramento raceway. 200 whp h2b in an eg. stock axles. 23inch slicks. traction bars. open diff. i sheered the passenger axles the peice is still in the tranny i had to tow home 2 hours....haha

 

thats gay, clean up your launches man!!
