Your gonna need 94-01 axels and halfshaft If I remember correctly the DA driver side axle is shorter and the DA halfshaft doesnt work right with the hydro trans.

Correct, the DA axles will work you just need the corresponding half shaft.

All DAs use a cable tranny. You can use the axles and intermediate shaft as a set though, but you will need the driver's side axle seal for a '90 - '93 Integra.

Works fine withe the hydro trans, my EH2 with an OBD1 B16A has DA axles (Raxles) and half shaft.
You just need to use a left side oil seal from a DA like 94EG8 said.
