ok ill be ordering my swap next week but one thing i need to know. someone mentioned that the type r axels are bigger the the usdm gsr axels so that means the jdm type r wont fit in my gsr hubs. would i have to just use usdm gsr axels???????????

 

i don't see why they would send 36mm. i would think they save those for their jdm 5 lug conversions, but they might. if they do send the 36mm just use your stock gsrs. and i thought c5's were usdm?

 

if your getting a b18c5 swap, you dont need to worry about jdm type-r axles then

 

I was about to say the same thing, thats a usdm type-r. I have a jdm type-r b18c with no problems. The 5 lug is where there is a difference from what I understand.

BTW I have a lot of parts for sale that will go on that engine nicely if your looking. Check under my for sale thread. Cams, TB, ect...

 

no im gettin the jdm swap, sorry for the confusion

 

what car is it going into? are you doing the jdm 5 lug converstion? or is already converted to 5 lug??

if your getting a 96-97 spec type-r motor, the axles will work
if your getting a 98 n up motor, the axles will be an issue.look below on these

GSR/SI 4 lug = 32mm (inner and outer)
CTR/USDM 5 lug/96-97 JDM spec = 32mm (inner and outer)
98 n up JDM ITR = 36mm outer 32mm inner

if you are 4 lugged, only the half shaft(intermediate) off the jdm itr axles will work, you will need to use 93-97 vtec delsol/99-00 si or any integra outers. I have heard if you use 4x 114 prelude hub and spline and it will work, but im not sure

if you are usdm 5 lugged, basically the same thing as above, unless you use the hub off a 97 + Prelude which also uses 36mm axles

if you have the jdm 5 lug convertion i wouldnt do it, its just too much pita to always try to locate new axles, or to have custome ones made
