hey guys..I'm putting a SiR cluster from Japan in my civic....and wondered if I could use the Si cluster in my other DX? I know there is no tach in the DX now...but wondered if I can at least get the other stuff to work.

thanks.

Correct me if im wrong but I thought the CRX DX came with a RPM tach. I know that the Civic DX in 88-91 didnt but i thought that the CRX did. Anyways, if it didnt then there are some wires that u will have to connect yourself such as wiring the tachometer up through everything such as you would with a 5" Monster Tach. If you need any help with wondering what u need to wire u can send me an email or reply back in here.

ooops....actually, I have a BASEMODEL..no tach, no seats, no tires :) I have someone who has the DX, i'll have to see if he has a tach...but my other car does not.

I put an Si cluster in my dx and it was simple plug and play. You just have to swap in an 88-89 cluster into an 88-89 car and a 90-91 cluster into a 90-91 car.:)

cool....thanks man!

this isnt very helpful, but my DX had the tach.

The CRX DX has a tach, but I don't believe the Civic DX has a tach... not sure, but I think that's how it goes.

Ok your talking abotu the SIR cluster correct? Im sorry but this is not a plug and play install. THe SIR cluster is completely different and will require numerous amounts of wiring. I remember reading info on it from another site and the guy said it was more then a headache then anything. Your best bet is just to use the US SI cluster if you want to swap. Hope this helps.

He is going to do the SiR cluster swap but the post is about putting an Si cluster in a DX.:)

Oops I read it wrong my bad.

Ah, don't worry about it. That was my first reaction when I read it too.:dogpile:

This is probably old news now, but the Civic DX did not have a tach (I have one - '89). I'd like to get a tach in it, though. So it sounds like all I have to do is find an 88 or 89 Civic Si in a boneyard?
