Driveshaft angle is irrelevant. and angles are measured with an angle finder not in inches. What matters is pinion angle in relation to transmission/engine angle and you can't simply change the pinion angle of the diff in these cars like you can with a solid axle. I'm sure whatever setup you've put together will be fine so just order the driveshaft and call it a day!

In an S13 you can shim the whole subframe to change the angle, of course this will also change the anti-squat.

In an S14 you could shim the pinion down since it's bushing mounted to the subframe, or machine custom solid offset bushings for the other side to nose it up.
