RSX axleback on Civic ?
I recently got a RSX Tanabe axle back for really cheap and was wanting to cut the axleback off and weld on the rest to fit my civic. What im wondering is if it would fit just as it is. Its from an RSX and is meant to bolt onto their regular pipe. Anyone know ?

alright i looked and it wasnt enough...All i know now is that the RSX is a little shorter...But will it still bolt on ? Is the flange the correct size ? I PMd "MAGS" who seems to also have a RSX muffler fitted on his civic but hasent replied yet in a few days. Anyone else know ?

alright for those who want to know like the person who wants the spoon axle back on his civic...The RSX axle backs are indeed a hair short. At about 2 inches shorter. It is also shorter in heigth as well. You need to drop it down about an inch to clear the bumper. The flange is almost a direct bolt on except for the fact that the holes are about a millimeter to far out. Not to mention that it is about 10 degrees off from stock location ( you need to rotate the flange and file out the holes).
