Anybody have GPM drive train hop-up parts on your RS4 3 ? Stay away from it, I've got a bad experience of those parts like rear univerals, rear center universals, and aluminum bell crank. These parts does not last long. I used mine for less than a gallon of 20% fuel and these parts already show a lot of wear. Drive pins of the shafts starts to pop-out by themselves, while the bell crank plastic bushings also stars to wear off, thus, increase in steering slack making the car uncontrollable at fullthrottle. If you plan to upgrade your drive train, I would suggest that you might as well consider getting MIP or Hot Bodies, they are much stonger. Price wise, Hot Bodies is much cheaper. I've tried to get in touch with GPM in Hong Kong and they responded to my inquest, with that, they might replace the "worn parts" once I send to them these parts, but after my reply, I never received any response. I am still using the rear universals after I fixed temporarily the problem while the center rear shaft went to its reetirement, anytime from now, I can junk these s***ts to the garbage, as I now have my Hot Bodies universals.
