Default 5 lug converion on a rs? Need help on axles!!

I am doing a conversion on a 94 integra rs and i was wondering what axles do i need, because it seems like the rs axles are smaller than the gsr so do i need a gsr axles to make this fit?

Ask the hybrid forum. Why would you think the ITR guys know the answer to this?

If its a USDM ITR 5 lug the axles from the 1994-2001 are the same for RS, LS, GS, GSR and ITR

not JDM 5 lug conversions. The axles spline has a bigger diameter. I just changed mine.

Well I have a B18c swap and was running 94+ teg axles until I got my JDM 5 lug swap, where I had to get the JDM ITR axle too.

If you're using a USDM 5 lug swap then you need to get 32mm axles, what Dropspeed said. If you're going to be using a JDM 5 lug swap then you're going to have to find 36mm JDM axles. HTH.

Ran into the problem of the Bigger axles when my friend did the 5lug on his 96. Hes still running sohc. I believe Larry Jr. at Import Auto Salvage traded out his parts with usdm.

You call yourself JDMgarage and don't know where to get JDM parts!!!!!


Good luck finding those at any local store, You will have to hook-up with a JDM salvage yard or importer to get the correct axles. As someone else stated Larry Jr. at import auto salvage I know can get them.

you can also use the inner part of 97-01 prelude hubs then your stock 32mm axles will work

methinks you should just try to get some USDM front 5-lug hubs so you don't go nuts and shell out crazy money trying to get J-spec axles.

if you havent installed it yet, sell it and buy a US 5-lug setup.

RJ - who's not sure why you even want 5-lug hubs anyways......

Well if thats what floats your boat......

I'd still sell it and buy a USDM setup, if 5 lug is your thing. Less hassle.
