Not sure if it applies to hydro DOHC ZC specific transmissions but with cable DOHC ZC transmissions the axles are unique in that they use an intermediate shaft and equal length axles. If it's the same difference, then you'll have to use the unequal length axles that the Civic normally uses.

Do your current axles have two equal length shafts and a half/midshaft? Or is it one long and one short axle?

Re: dohc zc motor jdm d15b tranny axle help
My response had nothing to do with any ZC motor, it was a specific axle difference unique to the older DOHC ZC specific transmissions. From your first post:
It sounds like you tried to use your existing axles from a DOHC ZC full swap on a D15B transmission. This is why I posted what I did.
Do your current axles have two equal length shafts and a half/midshaft? Or is it one long and one short axle?
