Message balance/harmonic issue that crops up and is hard to get rid of. Most DS are balanced at only one rpm, not good. The DS in the car operates and many different RPM's and there is a RPM range where the harmonics will be greatest. In some cases not annoying to the driver but in others it is. For the racers it is overlooked as performance wins out. I tried a 1 piece and went thru all the means to reduce the harmonics and to no avail, too annoying to me.

However the aluminum DS being lighter than OEM DS probably has the best chance of the least amount of harmonics, but it will have some.

Some have taken the 1 piecs DS to a shop and had it rebalanced with some success.

The reason Nissan engineers put the 2 piece in there was to eliminate the annoying harmonics of the 1 piece DS.
