Not sure if anyone is interested. I have the shortened driveshaft from a '90 RX7 (manual trans) . It is not useable as a real driveshaft but may be OK for a quick mockup. U-joints are good but shaft has been cut and crudely re-welded. It may have the same spline shaft and rear yoke as some Miatas. You will have to check out the compatibility yourself. Before I junk it, I thought I'd offer it here so some builders.

How much you might ask? Say enough for a six-pack plus shipping? Obviously local pickup would be best for us both. We might even share some of that previously mentioned 6-pack. :mrgreen:

I may be interested in the front spline, u-joint and say a foot of driveshaft if you can ship it?

Also how did your honda civic radiator work out for you? I'm running a carbureted 12a and was considering the same radiator.

Sure. I can cut it and ship it. You don't want the rear u-joint?

PM me with your contact info. We can move forward from there.

I never had any cooling issues. I think it has a lot to do with getting air out of the engine area.

FYI, PM's show in your outbox until the recipient opens it. It is a way that you know if it has been read.
