I have a 1992 Si and I am going to be getting a 5 lug, hopefully soon. I have my stock motor and do plan on getting a swap in the distant future. I would prefer a USDM 5 lug but I may have to buy a JDM one. Will my stock USDM D series axels be compatible with a USDM ITR 5 lug? Anyone know how big the spline on the axels is? If its 32 mm it should be compatible right? If I get JDM D series axels would it work with a JDM 5 lug? 36 mm and 36 mm? TIA.

yes they will work without a problem.

JDM 98+ SpecR ITR uses a 36mm outer joints (they can be swapped onto the d-series axles - as in JDM DOHC ZC only - not the usual uneqal lenght shafts found in SOHC) EDIT

JDM CTR is identical to USDM ITR and works without a problem as well

Ok thanks...but how could they both work because the two you just said would BOTH work have different hub sizes, JDM ITR is 36 mm, JDM CTR (USDM ITR) is 32 mm, how could the both work? I'm confused.

EDIT: I didn't mean to sound rude in this post, I'm just kind of frustrated from all the diff. answers I've gotten to this Q.

bump for a legit question...

From what he is saying and what I would assume, you could take your d series axle apart and swap on the 5 lug outer piece. I know a d series axxle will swap into a GSR or LS hub, not sure on a type R though.

That's it exactly. All D series trannys, USDM ITR 5-lug and JDM CTR use the 32mm axle diameter at the hub, so they are all interchangeable (ie. can use a d-series axle for a USDM ITR 5-lug swap). But if you use the JDM ITR (36mm) with your d-series, you'll have to take apart the axles.

Ok so if I get a USDM 5 lug or CTR 5 lug (both 32 mm) the conversion would be plug and play and my USDM D series axels will plug right into the hub. If I get a JDM ITR swap I need to also get JDM ITR axels and take aport both my axels and the JDM ITR axels and put the ITR 36 mm outer piece on my D series axel. Is that correct?

Is there any difference between the CTR and ITR 5 lug conversions other than the hub sizes?

Anyone know where I can find a CTR 5 lug conversion or a USDM ITR 5 lug? I have only been able to locate JDM 5 lugs.

Thanks,
Jake

CTR or USDM 5lug will work

*JDM ITR 5lug will not work

.jacob

So I can't swap out the part of my USDM axel that goes into the hub for a 36 mm one...period?

ABTDer

CTR 5lug 32mm= Dseries hub axle size
USDM ITR 5lug 32mm= Dseries hub axle size

JDM ITR 5lug 36mm= no can do

period

i've heard people hybriding the outter part of a prelude or 91 accord (i believe) axle. but i wouldnt do it.

Thank you very much, that cleared up everything.

I just have no idea where I can find a USDM 5 lug or a CTR 5 lug

classifieds or http://www.passwordjdm.com

I checked, all I could find was a JDM ITR at passwordjdm.com

PM the one we know as b18c5_powered_si he has great stuff and is a trustworthy seller , he's been here forevaaaaaaaaaaaah too

to answer your other question about the larger axlenut axles and retaining a D series motor/axles......

Downey

only the CTR and USDM ITR will fit with D series axles. the jdm ITR axles are 36mm, not 32

KOALA YUMMIES

What about JDM B16a Axels into the 96 spec ITR brake hub, the 4x114.3?

eg6ajk

96-7 spec 4x114.3 ITR setup uses a 'standard' 32mm axles no worries in using this setup.
