Dear all,

Did any1 know if EF8 dropped B18C Type R will need which model driveshaft? The stock EF8 or DC2 driveshaft? or depend on which model of gear box swap?

 

depends on the half-shaft (intermediate shaft) more than anything else really

 

If let say now my EF8 dropped B18C 96 type R with YS1 LSD gear box, that mean which model drive shaft i need?

 

are you using the intermediate shaft that came bolted to the motor, or the one that matches your transmission?

 

I'm not sure... any idea how to check ?

 

if the YS1 is complete with its intermediate shaft, use 90-93 integra axles. You might need to pop off the dust rings on the inside of your hubs though.

 

just throwing in my 2cents...axles..not a driveshaft (2cents.)

depends on who you are talking to and where..

"In British English, the term "driveshaft" is restricted to a transverse shaft which transmits power to the wheels, especially the front wheels. A driveshaft connecting the gearbox to a rear differential is called a propeller shaft (or more commonly a "prop-shaft") and a driveshaft connecting a rear differential to a rear wheel is usually called a halfshaft. The name derives from the fact that two such shafts are required to form one rear axle."

also...

"An axle that is driven by the engine is called a drive axle.

Modern front wheel drive cars typically combine the transmission and front axle into a single unit called a transaxle. The drive axle is a split axle with a differential and universal joints between the two half axles. Each half axle connects to the wheel by use of a constant velocity (CV) joint which allows the wheel assembly to move freely vertically as well as to pivot when making turns"

half shaft or half axles would be more technically correct.. since you didn't like the word driveshaft

nevermind... just looked at your age

 

wow... IT GUY u know a lot about the shaft, tq tq, then I need to check my int. shaft to match the driveshaft...
When I purchse this car it already come with the B18CR & YS1 tranny, thats why i'm not sure which & what kind of shaft the prevoius own put in...
