Driveshafts

[Scopez]

Hey all once again iv encountered another prob and would like to no wether the driveshafts from the primera will fit mine or if welding wil be necessary..? thanx

I imagine they will be completly different!!! Car width is differnt, gear box location different, car power is different

All sings point to a no

CVs will differ as well.

 

[richmicratwista]

why are you wanting to upgrade to them?

 

[ollie240585]

K11 driveshafts will take quite a lot of power,

James Ts k11 is hitting over 200BHP on Standard drive shafts (i think)

Correct...

 

[djlee_dj]

engine conversions need custom shafts made tho


you will need to measure up / cut + weld micra/primera shafts and send them away to an engineering company to fabricate ... approx 400-500 iirc

or if you cut weld and then sleeve & weld them properly you can stick to that and not bother with getting new shafts made and save the money

thanx alot for all ur advice is been very helpful....so i guess theres no other alternatives other than to weld away lol..anyone eles with any other opinions or solutions to this problem plz let me no..

by the way the primera gears are really long...i wanted something which could shift alot quicker anyone know of a shorter gearbox i can use instead of the standard?

 

[djlee_dj]

yea primera 1.6 into a k11....any chance u can help my email is [email protected] cnt say im online often but do email me and il get bk to...

Really would like to sort this prob out during the weekend

 

[djlee_dj]

you could do what was said above, cut weld and re-sleeve. phone a few engineering firms , see what they say

or cut micra + primera ends, join to correct length , take to engineering firm and get made up from scratch
