Without a doubt, the biggest aggravation with my 240SX has been breaking axles.
I have in all seriousness replaced the left side at least five times, and have broken on the line at the drag strip twice. This is quite embarrassing to say the least.
I noticed that Duy (1000whp 2JZ S14) and Mark (Mazworx T88 S14) have both ran the Mazworx axles, and they have held up to multiple 8 sec passes without breakage.
"The Mazworx 32 spline outer joint and upgraded inner joint will give years of lasting service. The Kit includes driver and passenger axles, new hubs with ARP Extended Wheel Studs already pressed in, and the Mazworx Inner Joint adapter to make all the parts a bolt on affair."
Considering my car is a street car, and I'm shooting for the high 9's, I figure this setup should hold all I can throw at it.
They are $1799 plus shipping, but worth their weight in gold. 1 Year Limited Warranty.
Here's an image of the pieces included in their kit:

DriveShaftShop does offer their own version ($1599/ rated for 900 HP), but it isn't nearly as complete, and only replaces the axles themselves....which is only half the problem in that car.

If anyone wants to post up other manufacturers, I'd love to get a list going.
To my knowledge, these are the only two making upgraded setups for the 240SX.
