    Really bad body roll any suggestions "VIDEO INSIDE"

    not to sound like a jerk but, your not 'holding a drift' because your not drifting. your sliding the back of the car around the turn, Big difference. learn to drift before saying the car cant handle it.

    1 Piece Aluminum Driveshaft Installed,Impressions

    isnt the weight mostly lost when you pull the bearing? dont need it with the 1 piece. still loosing 2-4lbs off the actual shaft is decent. anything to reduce sprung weight goes along ways.
