Do u know some one that's done this if I take the hub and spindal does that mean that when I swap my k20-s in that I can use the rsx axles or will they be to long or to short.

double wish is much better. Plus, more parts readily availabe for double-wish vehicles. Plus plus, the Type S Susp would probably weigh a ton.
