    What is wrong with using the OE guibo?
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        if you are blowing through guibos the its not because of your racing its most likely because of your driveshaft u-joints. You possibly need a new drive shaft AND flex disk. And while youre at it, get a new center support bearing too.

          That is an awfully short life for a quibo. Unless you've done something to dramatically increase the engine output, I'd wonder if there might be some other problem that is destroying the guibo. Like bad transmission of motor mounts, bad CSB, or bad drive shaft.

            thanx, i have changed all these things :)
            Got AKG enging and tranny mounts, stiff.. no flex..

            its not for a original m20, its for a turbo engine, long spec list! and hardcore use :pimp:..

            I will just try another oem one, and se if its only bad luck that have given me the problem..

            thanx

              Ive heard of using a guibo from a e34. Supposed to be sturdier, but just hear say. Ive never done it. Good luck with whatever you choose bro.

                You might try locating a large flange driveshaft and a M5 Guibo. You will need to swap the output flange on your trans though

                  also make sure you put it in the right direction. if you put it in backwards it doesn't last long.. I had one die after 5k of normal driving because of that.
