integra_ls_2dr

hey guys ive worked on a few dc integras an i know u can swap clusters from type r to a gs/ls. I wanted to know, what are my options when it comes to a DC5 (rsx). What cluster could work in this car? also is it possible to put an s2k cluster in it?

Deetz

DC5 cluster are huge work to swap into other cars! I assume you have an integra, and to make i work, you have to do some serious wiring plus get an rsx ecu as well, because that cluster needs a signal from it in order just to work. Don't bother.

no i am looking at purchasing a dc5, an i was looking into mods for it. I would like to know what other cluster options i have for it, not for my dc2.

Deetz

Then i would suggest going to the Integra forums to see what others have done.

Swapping in a DC5 cluster is a real PITA.

i tried lookin there, i cant find anyone who has worked on a rsx cluster. I guess there arent many options yet for the rsx. but im thinkin an s2k cluster would look pretty hot!

Deetz

The wiring would also be a nightmare. the dc5 cluster doesn't work the same way regular clusters do. you need the multiplexer unit from a k-series ecu. the engine vitals go to the ecu first and then go through an optical line to the cluster. it would be a monumental pain in the dick trying to make this cluster work in a Inetra chassis. that is unless you already have a k-swap.. which i imagine you do not. If you want to be somewhat different try an integra from another country or something. The S2000 cluster doesn't look that great to me.

its actually not that hard of a modification as long as you know what you are doing with the electrical aspect!!

and Deetz he is looking at buying a DC5(RSX), in america they come with the k-series motor already therefore he would not need to get the multiplexer because he would already have one ;-)

it does, there is some people on crsx that have it and it looks amazing!!! i have been waiting to do this to my dc5 as well!! there is a wiring DIY on clubrsx...GL with your transformation!!

here is the two best links i found about it link and a pic of the wring chart:

basically you can use any dc5 cluster in any dc5 model year (02-04/05-06, base, type s, type r usdm/jdm/adm) going from different gen and different regions are going to require some wiring. Then there is the s2k cluster you can use which requires a lot of wiring and conversions.

thats HAWTTT! im assuming it works on the ep3 aswell!!!

TypeS7

haha.. i've worked on all three setups on dc5's already. if you buy an 02-04. the harness is different then 05-06. you can rewire it. it's really not too hard. i have an 04 and i installed a 06 cluster on mine. i've also done a s2000 cluster on a RSX as well. wiring in that part is a PITA but just gotta be patient. and i do mean patient. here's a pic of a s2k cluster i did( sorry for the rest not done. i had just finished and was checking to see if everything was operating before i made the frame for the cluster)

If you're looking for plug and play, basically have no other options beside DC5

kobeballer96

and ep3...... maybe???

The Fast Acura

is it possible to swap a base rsx cluster for a type r cluster of the same year?

TypeS7

yeah.. it'll work

SkoundrelUSA

Nope, theres a thread on EPhatch of someone who did it. I don't think its as complicating as like a S2000 cluster, but its not plug and play.

I think only the DC5s plug and play with other DC5s (base, Type-S, 05-06 Type-S, ITR)

kobeballer96

=( i dont have those kind of skills to do this then lol urggg

nbcivic

that looks a lot better than i thought....but when you look into all the work it takes, it looks painful lol.

Sooo can the 05-06 ITR clusters go in a 01-04 Type S or ITR?

^^^Yes...
