Question About Gauge Cluster

CivicGirl · #1 01-14-2002, 09:37 AM

I would like to have a gauge cluster in my car that has the tach also, but the only ones made are for Si/Ex, which have different redline and all of that, is there anyway to work around that?

I would post this in the Civic forum, but I'm too scared to go in there :o

Yes, I guess I could get an aftermarket one?

I heard that the LX gauge cluster has the same redline as the DX. You might want to look in to that. Other than that I say just go for EX/SI one.

I just looked it up and the LX does have the same redline as the DX.

You could easily swap in a LX gauge set...

Are you looking for a pillar gauge or to replace guages you already have?

Replace the gauges I already have

Also, I have a CX model so the redlines might be different, but if I change the ECU (just a thought from fakirone) to a DX/LX then the DX/LX gauges would work right?

I don't know much about all this stuff

I don't know much about this stuff either, but I just wanted to say that my LX starts to redline at 7 and goes to 8. And the ecu shuts off the fuel at 120 mph. Does that help any?

I don't know, I have a 1995 LX right now, and the redline starts at 6.5 and goes to 8 or something

But I thought DX's didn't have a tach?

This stuff is all really confusing.

yeah, I don't think the DXs have a tach. You could get one that mounts on the dash, if you do it right it will look good.

I'll have my friend figure something out

Go with the LX gauges for your car. It has the closest matching redline to the one on your cx.
