About this part

Product Details

Driveshaft Shop is well-known for building robust drivetrain components, especially for high-performance vehicles. This Level 5 front axle is specifically made for the 2008 and newer Nissan R35 GTR, designed to handle the immense power this car can produce. If you're pushing your GTR beyond stock power levels, a stronger axle like this is essential to keep you moving forward.

This isn't just a beefed-up stock axle; it's a complete redesign. The Level 5 designation means it uses larger, stronger components throughout, including a bigger spline count on the inner and outer CV joints and a more robust cage and bearing assembly. The axle bars themselves are made from a high-strength alloy, carefully heat-treated to withstand extreme torque and shock loads without failing. The CV joints are engineered for maximum angle capability, which is crucial for a car that sees track use or aggressive driving. This axle is a direct fit, meaning it bolts right into the factory mounting points, simplifying installation compared to custom setups.

When you're upgrading your GTR's power, the drivetrain is often the first place to look for potential weaknesses. This front axle is built to be a strong link in your drivetrain, allowing you to confidently apply more power to the ground. It's designed to work with the factory differential and wheel hubs, making it a focused upgrade for the left-side front axle.
