How much HP can stock axles handle???
I was just wondering how much HP would stock integra axles handle. I have a turbo GSR and im thinking about putting some slicks on it but people keep telling me that im gonna brake the axles. Right now the car has 320whp. Just wondering what u guys think about this. Thanks

I haven't had slicks on my car yet, but I know guys that ran 500+whp on the stock axles with slicks. Make sure you preload on the launch.

we were at 630 last year i belive just preload and watch the tire pressure i wouldnt go lower than 8psi, spin out the hole rather than break at the line and move only a couple of inches if your lucky to move at all

Am going to be running 580WHP, and JDM ITR axles on 24.5x8x15 M/T. Would you say JDM is a lot stronger or its about the same?

preloading is when you use your ebrake or staging brake to hold the car inplace while letting out on the clutch so since the car cannot move its putting pressure on the front suspension instead of moving forward thus taking the shock off the drivetrain.

Re: How much HP can stock axles handle???
I know everyone so far has great results with stock axles. I had horrible results. Solid mounts 22x8x15 and 24.5x9x13 mt slicks I would break axles at the line every pass. (I would preload) slicks had 9psi. Started happening after about 350whp. It got to the point were after returning 6 axles to autozone that they told me I couldn't anymore. So I bought DSS 5.9's and havent looked back. If it helps the setup is a 92 hatch with a 84x89 and a 6765

Re: How much HP can stock axles handle???
I think it's more often the low hp guys that can't spin a slick over that break.
I broke alot of axles preloading a 2150lb 200hp car on 22" slicks. Good mounts, full face disk. The car does consistant mid 1.6's. Everytime i went to MIR, the well prepped track around here, i'd break ****.
Ask BigTuna how many he broke at 140hp.

323whp stock 99 Si B16a2 factory axles no LSD over 25+ track passes on 24.5 slicks axles still sitting on my shelf waiting to go right back in.....
Factory axles + good pre-load = magic.
Anybody else realize this thread was bumped from 2008 ? lol
