Well, I was about to order wheels, and they said that if i get wheels specified for my civic, when it comes time to get SI axels, they wont work. I also compared specs and they are diff. SI have 5-114.3 on wheel and civic has 4-100. Or is the guy wrong??

Axles have nuthing to do with the lug pattern. The 04-current SIs have 5 lugs. You need the axles off the 02-03 SI if you plan to keep your car 4 lug.

SevenCyrus · 12-12-2004

ahh shit. lol, got it. Thanks. So the ones that hasport sells is perfect with wheels that im gona get for my civic right now?

Hawk · 12-12-2004

that i don't know. Email hasport and ask them if the axles they sell work with your existing brake/hub setup.

SevenCyrus · 12-12-2004

Ic. Ok so what do u know for shure? The 02-03 Sir axels can be installed on my civic, will suport K20a2, and will fit with wheels that are origenoly bought for my Civic DX?

i normally get somewhere close to 300 on the tank. I used to get 330 so i'm really not losing much for what i'm gaining

I see in the RSX manual shop (also heard something on Hasport site) I neeed the AF sensor. But this seen to be a o2 sensor with another name. Do you know if I really have to buy it from Acura, or a Honda o2 sensor will make the same work...

EDIT: The AF sensor is a wideband o2 sensor, for a better effiency you must use it

i dont have an AF sensor. There is some pretty tricky wiring when it comes to the o2 sensors and i have no idea what ruben did but my car runs fine without an AF senor.

your car looks tight by the way. I used to have those rims before i went 5 lug. My car is the same color too but with 4 doors. nice carbon fiber hood too. Im jealous

if you do the electric power steering from the si then cuttin the hood wont be a issue right?

You need to have the wideband sensor. Your car will run but will run really rich and have crappy gas mileage. The second sensor is the secondary 02 sensor, which just tells you if the primary sensor goes bad. You dont need this hooked up. You should be getting a "CEL" what code is it throwing?
