Please just read my post, it is a long post, but I need some answers here. I am doing the typical LS into an ED6 swap. I know how to do it, but I want to do it a little bit differently. So here it goes:

Seriously, will the end of an ED6 axle (or the splined nub) fit onto the 90-93 axle shaft? I want to be able to use the small spline knuckle/spindle/hub assembly that is currently on my ED6, but take apart an integra axle and mate it to the small ED6 axle end. I was told that both axles are soo close to the same length, which is why people always opt for the integra axles when doing a b-series swap. However, as we all know, in order to use the integra axles, you have to have the integra spindles. Then again, I want to keep my ED6 spindles.

Yes, it may be a little bit weaker, but i'm going for it. On a second note, if anyone has done this and it has broke due to lack of strength, then I might not do it.

Let me know!

I'm not sure if I can help you but I think I can give you some idea. I got a Honda civic 91 (ED1) model. Its powerplant is 1.2, 16 valve. 3 years ago, I swap the engine out and put a 2nd Gen B16A (EG6 engine). The spindle and the axle are totally different from the stock. The spindle that I used is from integra and the axle is from EG6. But the axle is too long. I cut the axle to shorten it and put a thread like a bolt to lock both ends then weld it back.

Its fine up to now, but it is still in testing stage. I haven’t tried to burn out my tires because somebody told me that if I do there is a big possibility that the axle will break. I think thats true.

I'm not sure if we have the same axle. But mine is just like a metal pipe with nothing inside that stretches from left to the right wheel (Stock). So it’s totally useless with the new engine.

Is there any one who can give me an idea if the transmission of the first gen B16 is the same size with the 2nd gen B16. thnx
