I have a small problem with my tailshaft(it vibrates) the rubber mount has gone soft and I was hoping one of you guys would know how to fix it and if you can still get a new rubber for it
Cheers

If you're talking about the centre bearing, I hope you have deep pockets, cos they ain't cheap 
Try and find a replacement one in good condition

Well, I can't say for certain if Toyota stocks them for your car, but they are nearly $400 trade for an MA61 one if thats any indication.

for $400 it would be cheaper to get a single piece custom shaft MADE UP!

Probably not $400, it's just Repco don't have one for a Supra.

I was advised to use the 2 peice shaft instead of a single and the rear half was shortened 20mm this cost me $175 including balancing, then I fucked the rubber putting it in oops.
The two peice held up ok at 7000rpm launches at the track and every were else I drive for that matter

A straight piece of pipe does the trick

Considerably so, I have had one made for each of my engine conversions (4 so far) made and the most expensive one was $140 including balancing.

You can get cheap rubber mounts for MB's, (euro)Ford's and Volvo's to name few. And these really cost next to nothing in your local car parts store. Then get suitable bearing that fits to your tail shaft and rubber mount. The reason that Toyota centre bearing is so dear is that it's one piece unit. MB's Ford's and Volvo's have separate bearing, rubber mount and assy.

Hold on here u can get a new centre bearing for your car, i have one on my 2 peice tailshaft. When i converted the arse end to borg warner i had the back peice shortened and a new universal joint suited to the borg warner welded on. New universals in the front section near the box, and the mid shaft was replaced with a toyota dyna unit. This is as strong as you would be able to make the 2 peice shaft with balancing and a new bearing it cost just under $600. However the place who modded my drive shaft sourced the centre bearing, so try the place who shortend your rear section and see wat they come up with. I found i had to stick with the 2 peice becuase of the way my exhaust x over under the rear section of the shaft, so although it might have been pricy i doubt all the other work i done would have been a total of under 200 so i would say the centre bearings are more like 150-200 for a 23 new.
