- Mon Sep 13, 2010 4:47 am #213350 In an EG you can use any 90-01 B Series Axle.

Hoever if you go 90-93 you will need to use 90-93 axles or if you do 94-01 you will need to go with 94-01 axles if one goes bad. Reason being is on the driver side where the connects the two are reversed from what i have read. I have only personally used 94-01 Axles.

If your putting a Cable B Series Transmission in, You will have to get a hydro to cable conversion kit, any they never really work well.

I would HIGHLY recommend a Hydrolic B Series Transmission. If you want pure accerlation. the B16 Transmission is epic. shortest geared transmission honda makes and it is awesome, Biggest falling is freeway crusing. 70mph at 4k in 5th gear makes freeway crusing not pleasent.

The GSR Transmission is about 500rpms slower then the b16 transmission every gear. its better for freeway driving and still accerlates pretty good. Most people recommend this transmission for turbo applications.

Then the LS Transmission is good for getting good fuel economy and Long Cruises/Freeway driving. Some say this is best for boost, but their wrong. a GSR Transmission will make a faster turbo car then the LS transmission. These are normally the cheapest route to go though.

- Mon Sep 13, 2010 3:12 pm #213411 actually it depends on your half shaft on which axles you need if you have the 90-93 half shaft you need 90-93 integra axles if you have 94+ you need 94+ axles.
90-93 are female ends and 94-01 are male ends.
hope that helps!
just trying to clarify
