Inner joint is most likely bound up on the dust ring on the backside of the bearing. See below:



Note that this should not happen on a B-series swap, but the rings may be bent or something.

This 8 year old topic helped me out when I faced the exact same issue while fitting Integra shafts on my ZC. Thank you!
