Hey all I am in the procces of swapping a B18B1 motor into my 98 civic and its going to be fully built w/ turbo (25 psi is fun) and the cluster i have now is for the civic which is 120 mph and automatic. My ? is what year integra clusters fit my car and are they direct bolt in.

thx and if yall know of a how to on the net that would help also.

None. You have to modify the hell out of all of them.

Any civic cluster from 92-00 is plug and play.

Honduhhh

get a '99-'00 civic si cluster.....

ok kewl also anyway to cover the Si on the right circle and I have a lower redline i believe with the ls motor. or do i just get some gauge overlays to cover the Si and maybe add some red bars to make a lower redline so its more eye friendly to me and so i dont forget on those long days?

get an LS cluster...I personally dont think its worth the trouble..

Foozball26

yea that was my first idea is to get the ls cluster but what work will i have to do to make it fit?

allmtr

this is for an ITR, but im sure its the same for the other tegs

if you need help wiring it. Let me know i have done this practically 3 times, once on my car and 2 times helping other people. Also i found the wiring diagrams just a tad bit off. I guess it is different betweeen gsr and ITR and year cause some say it is kosher and others say some of the wires are off. I helped with the wiring diagram at fifthgearonline.com and that is the one that is correct for my car.

go here for an install guide......much more accurate then the others......and i know this because i tracked down every wire by my self, and then wrote this

dam thanks for the wiring how to

so is the teg cluster the same shape as mine so it bolts up like the EK or will i have to mess with that also?

HENRY

No, they are not the same shape and will not sit in the same position. Here is what Merritt says from her website above...

"The Integra gauge cluster does not directly bolt into the Civic. However it will bolt in if you get a couple thin strips of metal. They should be about 1.5 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. A hole needs to be drilled at either end of the metal strips. It may be necessary to bend the metal strips to get the cluster in the desired position. Once you get the cluster resting snug in the dash put the black plastic cover thing back on and it should fit nicely."

technically yeah but i don't even have mine bolted in and it looks fine, i never got around putting the straps in but it is fine so i might not even do it. Later

FifthGearOnline

nope....this is how mine looks with that black bezel thing out

ok kewl I dont have the cluster yet so i cant see it in front of me, Where do those thin strips of metal go when you put them in.

also I am planning on getting the gauge cluster bezel (black bezel that holds 2 gauges) from autometer will that fit with the new cluster?

i never put those metal straps in.....its just sitting in there. I think that the new bezel will hold it in there fine. I would just rest the cluster in there like i have it, put your bezel in and see how it is. If its tight enought then i wouldnt worry about the straps, but if it seems overly loose, then i would find a way to strap it down
