I've destroyed the CV joint of my left driveshaft (the short one) on a trackday on my VXT.
I'm looking for a new driveshaft but don't know where to find one (I'm in france).
Any ideas or someone with a second hand one to sell ?
Thank you

Thank you, I've already seen this one, but I'm not confident with the reliability of it on a high powered track car.
I prefer to stay on a GM one, except if someone says it is a good product.

I was in the same boat a couple of years ago, bought from GM, £400 odd, but worth it to me for the reliability.

Correct... the shorter eBay one is the right fitment but nobody seems to stock or know the correct dimensions for the long one.
I installed the shorter and it seems fine, but I've only done 1k miles since my refresh. I found a genuine longer one, that had probably been sitting in one of Thorney's cupboards for 10 years.
I am pretty sure that Mark (Mbes) used the eBay shorter one too, and has probably done lots more miles than me!

I fitted a OEM long one, along with a Ebay short one. Which Seems fine and holding up well after over 4k miles with a track day.
Its just std NA power but thumbs up from me for the ebay one (short)
Thanks

Yes, inside CV joint, are the same right to left If I look at VX references.
Oddly, outside CV joint have different references.
