**NEW INFO** URGENT HELP NEEDED, Intermediate shaft issue!
 

*SEE BELOW**

Ok, so I converted a auto DX to a manual SOHC ZC.

I had the motor before, and I went to the JDM importer to get a SOHC ZC tranny.

The tranny looks fine, it's not LSD or anything, it's cable of course, now I take my axles that I had in my old car which was a dx 5 spd and the axles are probably 1-2mm in diameter too small.

What axles do I need? I had put a USDM Si tranny in my old civic with these axles and there weren't any problems.

Do I somehow need to run teg ales with a intermediate shaft? It thought this was only for a DOHC ZC tranny.

Please help. I can take pics if needed.

Thats what I thought too? Are you 100% certain it was a SOHC ZC tranny? maybe some of them use the big axles as well? I used 90-93 integra axles w/ ZC ishaft on my zc trans. But I've heard people having problems with that setup too. Some say 88-89 integra axles

I'm not sure, I asked for a SOHC ZC tranny and this is what they gave me.

It's an L3 tranny but that's what they all are.

Would the 88-89 axles also need the intermediate shaft?

So that means I have to get the ZC int. shaft I couldn't use the teg one right? That BLOWS! At least i know it's a ZC tranny and not a DX that they sold me. :s

I found this from the following website: http://www.enginereplacement.com/htd...vic_crx_zc.htm

So it looks like the JDM tranny's all need the intermediate shaft regardless if it's ZOHC or DOHC.

DOH! :(

Trying to find a intermediate shaft SUCKS.

couldn't I just use the civic axles with teg inners rather they run the int. shaft?

If not I have 2 right side civic axles and i can get some teg ones so I can make the hybrid axles if only I could find the darn intermediate shaft.

yank the tranny, change the diff, reinstall, use normal axles.

Re: URGENT HELP NEEDED, Axles don't fit in TRANNY!
 

lol!

That sounds easy. :S

I'll just find the intermediate shaft and run the hybrid axles, equal length is good! :)

hit up Ebay.............

Re: URGENT HELP NEEDED, Axles don't fit in TRANNY!
 

Problem with Ebay is me being from Canada, everyone jacks up the shipping charges, and then they ship UPS, and on someting that's $50 I get an extra $25 of brokerage charges when it gets here. :( no fun.

there's probably 40-50 JDM importers in the city, I'm sure i'll find one tomorrow i just wish i would have been able to get one this weekend.

HOLY FACK PEOPLE ARE DUMB!!!!!!

That and they can't speak english. :(

I'm having a hard time finding that int. shaft. Some places tell me I don't need it for the SOHC motor. I think I'm going to call a big name place in the US and find out from them.
