I know. Find a couple places with the manual transmission. They are going to have the whole car so they will have the other parts that a manual car has. Get it yet? HAHA. They make more money off the transmission than the driveshaft so they usually dont bother to list it. Every manual car is going to have the manual driveshaft, petals, cylinders, MT flywheel Bolts, Flywheel. Ect.

Yeah but the driveshaft was the same length. 89-94. Pay attention to ABS. I am guessing yours doesnt have ABS?

That means you need to get the driveshaft from a 240SX with ABS. They are a little more difficult to find. Something about it is different.

Dude, just call them and ask if they have any 240SXs. They should be able to tell you the info about it. Does your car have the Super Hicas too?

what is different is that the ABS 5-speed shaft is a bit shorter because the abs sensor is in the Diff. if u get a non abs Diff u can use a normal 5-speed shaft.

finding a 5speed abs shaft can be quite difficult
