DSS 1-Piece Carbon Fiber Driveshaft Subaru WRX (GE8/GH8) R160 Rear / 5-Speed

DSS Subaru 2008-2014 WRX 5-Speed (R160 Rear) 1-Piece Carbon Fiber Driveshaft SUSH11-C

Driveshaft Shop builds its carbon fibre driveshafts for drivers who push their cars well beyond factory limits, and this one-piece unit is designed to replace the failure-prone factory two-piece shaft on the Subaru WRX. Where the OEM design flexes and eventually gives out under increased power and grip, the DSS carbon fibre shaft removes the centre bearing and joint altogether, cutting rotating mass while adding strength.

This listing covers the Subaru WRX 5-speed manual with R160 rear differential, built across the GE8/GH8 and GV8/GR8 chassis generations from 2008 to 2014. SKU SUSH11-C is specific to this drivetrain and diff combination, so confirm your gearbox and rear diff type before ordering.

Note: This driveshaft is designed for the 5-speed manual WRX fitted with the R160 rear differential only. It is not a direct fit for 6-speed STI applications or vehicles running a different rear diff.

Key Features

• One-piece carbon fibre construction replaces the factory two-piece design
• Eliminates the centre support bearing, a common failure point under load
• Reduced rotating mass compared to the factory steel driveshaft
• Built for increased power, higher RPM and repeated hard launches
• Engineered specifically for the R160 rear differential and 5-speed manual drivetrain

Vehicle compatibility, OEM part numbers, and fitment notes are provided in the tabs above. Please confirm your WRX's model year, gearbox type and rear differential configuration before ordering.
