Default OT: UKDM ITR Gauge Cluster

Just a heads up for the ITR guys, there's an auction on eBay for a UKDM gauge cluster. I don't need another one, so I'll let you guys fight over it.

All of the UK is miles per hour. What do you mean certain parts?

How do you know it's not UKDM cluster? The pictures on this laptop are not good enough for me to see the inner markings, but it seems to me that around the 160 mark there is an inner mark that is over 200, so I would think the inner markings are kilometres per hour.

I can't tell for sure, so I'm just curious how you are sure it's not a UKDM cluster.

The auction is in the UK, after all.

If you have run out of OEM DC2 ITR parts to buy, the UKDM instrument cluster might make an interesting last addition for you. The only advantage to it is that the speed readings go higher than the USDM clusters. It's not going to be extremely accurate on the track, but there are a lot of Integras on the track that are up around (and over) 150 miles per hour these days so maybe it's still an attractive buy for some people.

He might have thought Ireland was part of the UK, which they converted to metric a couple of years ago.

The problem was probably that we kept calling it the "Imperial" system and the "English" system.

ITR or not, I don't think I'd want to do 150+ in an Integra... would need some serious downforce mods. to those who do it safely.

This driver and the current H1 favourite are just using the OEM aerodynamics, without much of a problem.

There certainly was a time that many of us felt very uncomfortable at 150, but the answer seems to have been found with experience, spring rates and suspension alignments.

What circuits do you reach 150mph at?

btw, don't forget those spiffy yellow needles as an advantage over the USDM version.

Good luck on the auction.

I'm thinking that Jason exceeds that at Summit Point.

If I get through Turn 10 properly, I <u>seem</u> to see that speed. I caution, however, that I have not had anybody aim the radar at me since the latest improvements.

This is why I was watching that S2000 thread the other day. They're saying they are sure the S2000 can keep up with the H1 K20 and H22 Integras, but I really just don't see how they can, anymore.

OK, well... I have never seen a UK cluster in KPH and, in fact, the law requires MPH. I cannot imagine why you'd want a car in KPH when you drive in MPH.

That's impressive. Although I have no experience with Summit Point so no point of reference.

Well then you have never seen a UK ITR cluster as ALL ITRs sold officially in the UK read in MPH with kmph in small type set on the inside of the cluster face, and as George stated its required by law in the UK, so JDM imports into the UK have to have their speedos converted to read in MPH.

they probably wouldve gauged it up to 160 mph on ours too, just like the uk one if they didnt feel that americans needed to be reminded to put "premium unleaded fuel only". i think its stupid and thats probably my pet peeve about our U.S. cluster in that its the only one that has the dummy icon in all 6 ITR international versions. those words ruin the whole look of the face. the cleanest to me above all is the aussie spec, rightfully the #1 pic below.
