FS: CATuned driveshaft adapter + OEM corteco 78mm giubo

[Maybe Magpie]

Ended up just going with a 96mm flange driveshaft instead when I was shipped the wrong driveshaft for the date of production for my car despite ordering a different one to be compatible with my E34 G260 swap into my E30, and thus I no longer need this. It was briefly installed - see the minor surface marks the camera makes more evident - but then removed almost immediately, and is otherwise unused, and has never seen the road or running. $150 MSRP normally, you can have it for $125 including shipping CONUS (cheaper than they have on sale right now if you factor in shipping). As far as I am aware the giubo was never used at all and was not installed. It's a Corteco CTO-21652251 (P/Ns compatible are 26111225624, 26111207785, 26111204294) with 78mm pattern bolt holes. MSRPs for $70.99 on FCP, take it for $55 shipped CONUS. Paypal preferred but I can do venmo or other similar methods.




I can knock the price down a little for local pickup and/or cash in the Seattle area. Corresponding slight price increase for non-48-state buyers. Open to offers if you want to buy both, and I can toss in some spare OEM driveshaft bolts and washers if you do. Thanks!

Hi - I am in the process of a conversion - euro 1987 e30 to M52B28, so I have the e36 328i gearbox - ZF but the driveshaft is from the e30 unforturnately. So currently my driveshaft transmission triangular flange is 2 ⅝” (66.6mm) but the one I need is 3 1/4" (82.5mm). Would this adaptor work for that? Also will it clear the transmission tunnel ok?

Not sure, I'm afraid. Maybe? You don't measure the flange itself per se, you measure the bolt hole pattern spacing - on E30s it's either 78mm or 96mm but I don't know for 36s or what diameter ZF flanges are and I don't know if the different angle/tilt of the 24v and 36 transmission would cause any clearance issues. Some googling indicates ZF320s have 96mm pattern output flanges. If your e30 driveshaft bolt pattern spacing is 78mm, this should work but I'm not sure if you'd want to get a 96mm giubo and use this adapter between it and the e30 shaft, or use this between the ZF 320 flange and use a 78mm giubo. I would suggest emailing CATuned to ask. FWIW I have a garagistic DSSR and a 96mm giubo needed a bend to be put in it to clear it but it fits the tunnel otherwise with the G260 and this adapter is about the same size as a 96mm pattern giubo, and given the ZF already is designed for having a 96 I think I don't think you'd have issues with that, but I'm not sure I can guarantee anything else.

Bump. Still FS.
