Default Axle Questions

Im in the market for new axles cux mine are beaten and broken . I am eventuially gettign DSS stage 3 or 5, but low on cash becuase of the rebuild so i need something cheap to get the car back on the road when the motor is done . I called Advanced becuase I hear they carry a brand GCK that has lifetime warrantee and are pretty cheap . . . the thing is their books only list 99 Standard Integra, and i looked on another site and it lists the same thing , but when i click on the details is says ALL 94-99 Integra/Delsol , 1.6lvtec.
I dont know if they are correct or not, i was told a while ago only GSR axles will work on an R, LS wont becuase of the splines or something ? anyone have any insight on this for me?
Thanks.

B18 axles should all be the same if I remember correctly.....

Older axles from 90-93 tegs are different from 92+ B16A's.
A Del Sol VTEC should fit a B18C5, I believe

dammit...i was talking to someone on here recently through PM about those GCK axles from advanced or autozone. Wish I could remember his name. He was running them on his turbo ITR or GSR(i dont remember which) but he said they are still going strong. I dont remember what year he had though. Sorry not too much help haha. If you go to autozone.com you can search for axles and I believe a set comes up but its not the GCK brand. I recently went with DSS stage 1 and so far, I dont like them. I think it is an install problem though so that is getting checked out today. I know a guy that can get axles pretty cheap but dunno if they would last very long on your b00sted R.

Right.... The earlier b18's from the older tegs (DA's) had a spline length that was not compatible with the B16A (92+) engines. Those engines use the same axles as a B18C5

how much are the tci onee? i have been seeing lots of ads for them in drag sport and stuff but i would like sometihng more widely used and proven for the power i wanna put down . its gonna be hard for me to keep axles on this car with 26inch slicks and over 500whp. i just need something quick and cheap to get it on the road and the lifetime to repalce them until i recoop and get moeny for some good ones.
