I dont know if its just a rumor or not, but im going to swap a jdm itr engine in my ek but I heard the jdm itr axels are diffrent then the usdm itr axels. Is this true?

No, not true. If your getting a complete swap the axles that come with the engine will be just fine. Where are you getting the swap from BTW?

 

i have never heard this, but get a 2nd opinion

 

Yes, the spline is larger (36mm) on the 98 Spec ITR axles. The USDM ITR axles have a 32mm spline. If you want to run the bigger spline, you'll need the JDM 5-lug conversion. But you can always run any USDM B-series axles with your swap.

ok so you guys are saying if I get a complete jdm itr swap that came with the bigger axles I can use those with my four lug stuff, But if I brake one of the axles I can just simple replace it with any usdm b-series axle and it will work just fine despite one bigging larger then the other. (Maybe I should just do a ctr swap like I did in my eg.) I didnt have any problems with that

 

 

I'm pretty sure he's saying that if you'll have to do a JDM 5 lug conversion in order to use the axles that will come with the JDM swap. It'd probably be much easier for you to find some USDM B series axles.

 

ya I just read it again and It made since. Its early for me still. Ya see thats what I been hearing and just wanted to make sure it was true. Thanks guys

WHAM! We have a winner!!

 

All USDM ITR swaps have smaller 32mm axles.
96-97 JDM ITR swaps have the smaller 32mm axles.
98+ JDM ITR swaps have the larger 36mm axles.
