Is the Driveshaft Shop Front Axle for R35 sold as a pair?

No. This listing is the left front axle on its own. Driveshaft Shop sells the Level 5 front axles for the GT-R as a pair on its own site, and the right side is listed separately here, so one damaged axle can be replaced without buying both sides.

Which model years does the Front Axle for R35 fit?

Driveshaft Shop lists the Level 5 Front Axle for R35 GT-R for 2008-2016 models. Some dealers quote a wider range, but this listing follows the manufacturer. For a 2017 or later car, contact Bulletproof Automotive before ordering so the fitment can be confirmed with Driveshaft Shop.

How much power will the Level 5 front axle handle?

Driveshaft Shop rates the Level 5 front axle at 1,000HP, the same rating it gives the Level 5 front axles for the Skyline GT-R. That covers most bolt-on and upgraded-turbo VR38DETT builds that launch hard on drag radials or sticky street tires, which is where the factory front shafts take the most punishment.

Does the axle need any modification to install?

No. Driveshaft Shop describes it as a direct bolt-in part with no modification to the hub or the front differential. It goes in the same position, and with the same procedure, as the factory GT-R front axle it replaces, so any shop familiar with the R35 can fit it.

What warranty comes with the axle?

Driveshaft Shop backs the Level 5 front axle with a 1-year warranty. Like every DSS part, it is non-refundable once it has been installed, so confirm the side and the model year of the car before the axle is fitted.

Description

Driveshaft Shop 1000HP Level 5 Left Front Axle for R35 Nissan GT-R

Driveshaft Shop’s 1000HP Level 5 Front Axle for R35 Nissan GT-R is the left-hand front shaft from the DSS direct bolt-in front set, built around a 300M alloy steel bar and a 300M splined stub inside a chromoly CV housing. Once a VR38DETT has been taken past its factory turbos, launch control and the all-wheel-drive system load the front shafts well beyond what they see at factory power, and DSS rates this axle at 1,000HP. It suits a bolt-on or big-turbo GT-R that sees the strip or the dig; a stock car on street tires does not need it.

Design and Performance

DSS designed its Level 5 axles for drag racing, and the same parts have since proved themselves in road racing and rally use. On the R35 the upgrade is a matter of materials rather than layout: 300M steel for the bar and the splined stub that carries torque into the hub, and chromoly for the CV housing. The axle is a direct bolt-in replacement for the factory left front shaft, with no modification to the hub or the front differential.

About Driveshaft Shop

The Driveshaft Shop, also known as DSS, has spent more than 30 years designing and manufacturing CV axles and driveshafts for street and competition cars in its own CNC machine shop and manufacturing facility in Salisbury, North Carolina.

Every driveshaft it builds is dynamically balanced at over 9,000 RPM, and it works in steel, aluminum and carbon fiber for sport compact, European and modern muscle applications, with custom builds made to order.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
