Default H22a swap in 98 civic hatch

So I'm gonna be swapping an h22a into my 98 civic and I have all the parts of an 01 prelude(engine,trans ecu,wiring harness) and I was told that the axles of a 90-93 integra would fit. Just curious if that's true or not.

The shaft length is about right, however the splined end on the right side axle is actually too short and will not lock into the differential of the H22A transmission. Also, you will need an axle with a FEMALE inner joint on the left side of the car to work with the H22A mid-shaft. So in short, the answer is NO and this is NOT true.

For reference, in my H22A4 powered Civic DX Coupe, I use a '90-93 Integra axle shaft and outboard joint and swap to the Prelude inboard joint on the RIGHT side axle... and on the LEFT axle, I use an '86-89 Integra axle shaft with the '90-93 Integra outboard joint and Prelude female inboard joint. If you don't have a source for these individual parts, I suggest you contact HASport or Raxles and order what you need.
