I ordered a passenger/right side drive axle from insane shafts for my 91  manual. I read a DIY on nsxprime, and was able to remove the old oem  one, and put in the new insane shaft one. I've always done work on all  my cars, so I would consider myself mechanically inclined.

QUESTION:  Is ANY space between the axle and intermediate shaft acceptable? The  stock one had no gap, so I was surprised that my insane shaft one  currently has a small gap (maybe I just need to force it in more than I  already have somehow *shrug*). It feels like it's locked in, although I  can wiggle it back and forth a little. I'm open to hearing info from  anyone with oem or insane shafts. (I tried tagging a few nsxprime members to this thread based on a nsxprime search that suggested they had experience with insane shafts).

Here's a pic of mine showing the gap.

THIS VIDEO BELOW IS NOT ME. I found this video on nsxprime, and it appears this guy has a small gap (starts at 0:15s), so maybe it's ok???
