Hello Zilvia!
I'm confused as to what driveshaft is needed to complete my SR swap.

My S13 shell consist of SUPER HICAS/ABS. Since I'm going Sr20, what driveshaft should I be looking for?

If the car came with a driveshaft and it matches your transmission(auto to auto etc.) you will use that. You need the ABS shaft that matches your transmission in other words.

My car did not come with a driveshaft, It's a bare shell

Ok just need an abs shaft out of any s13 so long as it matches your transmission type.

Why not just buy a one piece driveshaft from somewhere like Z1 performance in georgia?

The used 2 piece driveshafts can give you alot of headaches. vibration, having to buy several new pieces, etc. A new steel 1-piece solves all those problems, probably cheaper.

I run an aluminum one now......Awesomeness!

That's the route I think ima go. To clarify, it's an s13 shell with abs/super hicas. I'm swapping over an s13 redtop. I'm guessing I only need an abs sr20 manual driveshaft?

You just need to find a manual S13 ABS driveshaft...doesnt matter if its for an SR or KA, they're the same lenght. The difference between an ABS and non-ABS is the longer diff snout so the ABS ones are shorter.

Thank very much sir! I'd give you kudos if there was a kudos button!
