Message	pretty much all my Drive Shafts have failed at the Universal Joint, even my Z32. I've never had a DS break under WOT, only light duty. Infact, they damn near all broke when letting off throttle. This is due to the 'loading' and 'unloading' condition of the Universal Joint. disclaimer; fwiw and imho.
