I don't know, but I'd check the measurement of the original engine vs your swap, see if it's an inch further to the transmission. All you'd have to do is find a stock rs. Perhaps using a longer shaft, like for a crv perhaps? That's just a guess. Other than that, you can't really beat on the auto parts store axles and expect them to last. There's actually a link in these forums for better, but not quite racing axles. They may also have the info you need, otherwise, there's tons of engine swap info in these forums. You may need a custom axle, or change front end components to match up with the engine.

Wrong intermediate shaft. Get one from an 5spd Integra (94-01)
