Default B18CR Axels, EK Civic Spindles

So from browsing all over this site as well as a few others, I have seen hints at the 98+ spec ITR axels being 36mm, and the EK spindles are 32mm. I'm in the market for a B18CR, is there any easy/cheap way to temporarily solve this problem? The next upgrade I plan on buying is a 98+ spec ITR brakes/spindles/trailing arms/etc conversion, but on seeing the size differences, would I have to buy the conversion at the same time as the swap for the axels to fit? I would rather wait another month to have a running car than spend several hundred dollars on custom axels that I will use for a short time at best.

Help appreciated

The GSR axels are the same size as the Type-R axels at the tranny/halfshaft? Are all Honda/Acura axels the same on the tranny side?

JDM ITR axles are 36mm. All U.S. B series 95-UP are the same.

but what are my options for rolling on 32mm spindles? Are there axels that have the same tranny dimensions as the b18c5 with a 32mm outer?
