I am swapping my R swapwith 5 lug I had in a eg hatch back into a 97 R. What axels will work ?? The ones for the eg seem smaller.

 

4 bolt or 5 bolt conversion?

if 4 bolt, your oem shafts should work fine,

if 5 bolt, it might have the 36mm hub, in which case you need JDM ITR shafts, or your oem shafts with 92-96 prelude vtec outters

 

Its 5 lug and the outer joints appear to be correct , the length seems to short.

 

what engine is in your car? It should be fine for length because the itr hub ists int he smae place as the civic on did... only shaft length difference would be if you did a B-Series motor swap and tried to use the d-series axles
