Default 5-speed swap question

When doing an auto to manual swap in a 5th gen accord, can I use 92-96 prelude axles and intermediate shaft, or do they have to come from another 5th gen accord?

They will work but most people are happier with using accord axles. Search it up, hopefully the archives still hold some more info on what axles to use.

accord axles fit better since lude ones are longer.

Prelude axels will fit very difficoultly because they are longer and if you manage to fit them the will be very tight and get worn very fast.
What you can do (which is what I did) is fit the Prelude cv joints on the Accord's axel shaft.
