If you like everything about an RSX/Integra then why don't you just get one? And no I doubt the RSX cluster will fit perfectly on to an EK dash.

It's actually been done before, it's a lot of modding and what not. The EK cluster I believe has 4 or 5 plugs in the back, while the RSX only has 2. It's a lot of work, but it can be done.

so by your thinking i guess since some of us like to turbo our cars we shouldn't do that and just go buy a turbo car from the factory right?

LOL both of you idiots need to read correctly... Esp. when you're quoting me, I just don't think going hybrid esp. with a RSX cluster is worth it in the end.

hey bro don't pay attention to the negative feedback. just like you said, you asked their opinion. Lmaonade tries to flame without knowing jack$hit or being proven on HT. it's a forum and questions are meant to be answered. that's the purpose of a forum

The DC5 uses a mulitplex metering system that sends all the guage information digitaly to the cluster from the ECU via 1 wire. You wouldn't be able to get the cluster working w/o using a DC5 ECU...

This is why you have to wire all your sensors directly to the stock cluster when you put a K20 in your 92-00 civic..

leave him alone, if u look at the big picture it's his way of telling the guy that it's not worth it....

...same thing as when ppl on here ask how to make their blinkers blink faster...

im not saying i agree with him, just pointing out something u guys are overlooking...

Its like trying to get the S2k cluster to work...from what I've read, the S2k speedo is digital, whereas EK's and such use analog signals. I've read up on it, and its "supposedly" impossible to get it working 100%. Im sure its possible, but its gonna take a lot of work and knowledge to convert the RSX cluster to accept the correct signals. You could try to make something that can convert analog signals to digital or something..

It should be pretty easy then. Just get the OEM wiring diagrams for both cars, and make sure all the proper wires from the ECU & chassis are hooked up to the right place. You may have a real problem with the fuel guage though (I don't know if that is supposed to run though the ECU or what).

I have never seen a inter-generation cluster swap that looked anywere close to decent. How are you going to get the cluster to look good in your dashboard?
