Here is 3 driveshafts.

The first one is a TII driveshaft
The send one is a NA tranny to TII rearend driveshaft.
The third one is a auto driveshaft.

For the diffs up top, left one is a clutch pack and the one on the right is a torsen.

DerangedHermit

Do you have a TII transmission in it?

Madrx7racer

Madrx7racer

WAYNE88N/A

then it is a TII Driveshaft......

WAYNE88N/A

Man, no offense to any of the auto guys out there, but putting an auto tranny on a rotary engine is like putting ketchup on a donut...

DerangedHermit

Whoa now Wayne. I liked you up until now. Don't bash on my eating habits...
















Here's a useful link btw, https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...driveshaft+pic .

I meant is it an AUTO Driveshaft? I am trying to see if the info I was told is right......an NA Automatic DriveShaft will fit a TII tranny AND an NA Diff(such as the GTUs 4.3 difff) I thought about it when I did the TII swap into my GTUs.....I never got an answer and I didn't want to buy a Driveshaft....so IS THE SECOND DRIVESHAFT AN NA AUTOMATIC DRIVESHAFT? the first is a TII, the third is an NA....

Is it just me, or is there very little difference between the T2 and the NA. the NA is a bit longer, but i thought it was going to be REALLY thin compared to the T2 drive shaft from the way the T2 people talk. As it looks, i think i might be okay with the NA drive train and my 200hp project.

Thanks for the pics!!!

Yes, NA with a manual tranny, and manual driveshaft, all original, and still going strong at 193,000 miles, even with the abuse I put on it...

White_FC

Hehe, I all but snapped a uni off my N/A manual driveshaft.

Is was worn a little bit to start with (only 127,000km's... but i suspect bad tranny/engine mounts did the damage) but then after a little whee burnout it was hanging together by the thinest of margins...

shaking and carrying on even going the ~20km/hr on my 1km trip home.

only found out how bad it was the next day.

Bloody lucky it didn't snap, moral of the storey? Make sure your uni's are in good shape.

Madrx7racer

you need to hold them both to see how really different they are......once i felt them both i decided to use TII instead of the NA

alwayssideways

no i have the normally tranny in my 5sp na .. and i definatly have the 3rd drive shaft .. although i have a wierd car. s4 bumper on a s5 , s4 idiot lights on a s5, and some other various things .. but i just think its wierd that i have a auto drive shaft on my na. and it fits perfectly.. non of the splines and what not are exposed

Madrx7racer

you are supposed to have the third Driveshaft if you have a 5spd NA..........I THINK the second one is an NA AUTOMATIC driveshaft while the third is a TII driveshaft(as he said in the beginning.) Very very interesting car you have there.....care to post some pics?

DerangedHermit

That's from another thread, referring to the skinny driveshaft (bottom in this thread's picture).
