if you're using all that stuff from the RSX-S, then you'll just use the RSX-S axles. works out totally fine.

Werd. Glad to hear another Bakersfieldian is going with rear disks. I think I finally have everything I need to put my 4-lug rear disk on. Might be this weekend since its a 3 day weekend. When are you doing yours?

Yep, EP3 and type S axles are the same, the spline is just different. You cannot use the type S axles with the EM2 hubs due to the spline, so you have to use the EP3. Since you have all of the suspension components then you actually need the type S axles and cannot use the EP3. So you are good to go, good luck to you!
