So I took my car back into the shop, and he dosent think the diff. is bad. he thinks the wobbling is caused due to snow and shit in the wheels, or off balence wheels.
As for the loss of power and wierd issues with the car hooking up, he thinks it is wheel hop.
The winterforces are fairly grippy on dry pavement, and with a tight new set of axles, he thinks that the wheels are just hopping. We took it for a drive, but it was wintery, and the car didn't do the wierd bineing thing in the lowerd traction. Could this be the problem, or is something else goofy?
Also, my mait. required light came on, and I have heard that that if the oil change place does not reset something, it will come on before your next scheduald oil change? Or is this caused by something else?
This article should answer your maint. light question. http://www.team - integra.net/sections/articles/showArticle.asp?ArticleID=483
Hmm, article was nice, thankyou. However, I learned something new today about it I think. I took it to a few more ppl, and they seem to think that I have the wrong axles!
IDK if they are off a diffrent integra or diffrent Honda, IDK, but I am going to go back to my mechanic tomorrow to make him measure the old axle and the new one, and see what we come up with.
get stiffer engine mounts, that will rid you of hop
and maint req is nothing, dont worry about it, there is a button you push when you turn your key to ON... blah blah blah... ill explain later... im uber tired

Ok, I had someone look at the car, and we have detrmined that it isn't wheel hop, not a driveline issue at all, but that it's the motor. The problem seems to be happening less and less, and the maint. Required light came on, and my freind thinks it may be the distributor cap and rotors. I have new plugs and wires, they just aren't on yet.
Qutesion is, does this sound like a distrubutor problem to you guys?
Mods: All stock, for now. Hooked up the stereo though.
The maintenence required light comes on based on a timer. Thats all. If youre keeping up to date with maintenence, ignore it. There is a button to reset it. Get on your knees in the drivers side floor area, and look up. Where the plastic of the dash ends, there is a small blue button. Push it.

Hmm, yeah, Oil should be done soon, its been a over 3 months and about 1700 miles.
Thanks for the tip on that light, but I still wonder what is causein that problem, it seems electrical or fuel delivery related, but thinkin more electrical. Because it's almost like it's missing, and or hitting some sort of limiter.
