ok. i just got off the phone with my local performance shop. going to swap the crx with a b16. i asked them if they are going to change the hubs and the breaks they said it was not neccessary. only the axles? is this true???ive had this conception that inorder to fit the axle neccesary for a b16 swap is to change the hub. or is there a way that you only change the axle but not the hub for a b16swap.oh by the way i have a 88crx hf.

 

If it has stock HF hubs then it is required to change the hubs from what I know.

 

yah thats what i thought too. and if you change the hubs. your gonna need to change your breaks too right?

 

i know in an si you just remove the dust cap from the inside of the hub and your teg axles will fit perfect, but cant tell you about a dx. mine is an si,if your hub is the same as mine you're good to go! mine popped right in!

 

i have crx 88fh.

 

DX has same size hubs as SI. Just remove dust cover and axles will work fine.

 

[QUOTE=90crxb16a]DX has same size hubs as SI. Just remove dust cover and axles will work fine.
yah so does this mean its also for the hf?

 

no. for the HF, you have to get the hubs from a Si or a DX.

 

go to hasport.com they have a whole writeup on axles and fitment with the different years.

 

Yep You need new hubs

HF(CRX) and STD(Civic) need new hubs when doin a b Series

Check http://www.Car-Parts.com (thanks El Vap )

for my both hub assemblies for $100 shipped

 

ok maybe you really dont need to change the hubs if you do some axel surgery u can just swap out tha end part of tha axel that goes into tha spindle on tha hf hub. just an idea what ya guys think???

yes you can, but why go thought the trouble... by getting new hubs you will also up grade your brakes from a 8.X" to 9.5". since you will be adding more hp and since honda love to utilize the front brakes so much, why not get the bigger brakes!?

 

replace the hubs, HF has wimps axeles and brakes, do yourself a favor and upgrade them too.

No problem bro!

 

i understand that it would b dumb , but i believe tha original question was " can you use hf axels?" i was just showing him that it can be done.
