E46 M3 V3 Carbon Driveshaft
Swipe right for info. Scroll down to order.
Engineered for the E46's transmission tunnel.
The V2's revised carbon tube diameter is made specifically for the E46 M3.
Winded, pre-preg carbon fiber.
The carbon filaments are sourced from Toray Industries, and the tubes are finished with the signature gold filament.
It doesn't vibrate, at any speeds.
The original flex disc (guibo) is re-used, and acts as a critical vibration dampening component.
It can still flex.
The constant velocity flange has 22mm of range to absorb driveline movement.

Got my 420G feeling like a Springfield.
There will be eternally be something special about pushing down on a clutch, swapping a cog and releasing your left foot and pushing into the power pedal.
It's the feeling.
Can retrofitting technology introduced on the F8x M3 enhance the 420G?
In this Series, I bust some myths, I document the installation procedures, chat about the less than stellar BMW M manual transmission history, discuss my impressions and the V3 update.
Cheers,
