Default What cluster is this?



I searched, and found THIS thread, and this cluster doesn't appear to look like ANY of those. The incriments on the coolant/gas backings are completely different, and resemble a GSR cluster, but the facing/tachometer resemble a USDM Type-R cluster. Also, note the writing of "Premium Unleaded Fuel Only" in the speedometer facing, it's competely different from the USDM gauge pictured in the thread as well, not to mention the "MPH" writing is in a completely different location.

Is this a completely different cluster? A hybrid pieced together one perhaps? It looks like the plastic had been removed from the cluster (See the adhesive on the lower portion).

A friend of mine is selling it, and I just wanted to verify what it is. Because he's selling it as a USDM Type-R cluster, and if it's not one, I'd like to let him know so he's not selling an improper item. He's a VERY good seller, and he'd like to uphold his good selling reputation.

Any input is appreciated.

^ GSR cluster.

As you can see, the two are identical, aside from the tacometer, and the facing... Is that what the cluster appears to be? A hybrid between GSR and Type-R?

^ Look at the coolant/gas incriments as well... The only thing Type-R about it, appears to be the tachometer and facing.

Yea, I just went and looked at my GSR cluster, and the gas/coolant look indentical... So maybe some one swapped the GSR tach for a Type-R and put the C/F backing on their.

^ That's what I'm thinking.

I think someone got over on him, selling it as a USDM ITR cluster. He definately wouldn't do something like that.

It definitely looks like someone put a R tach and C/F backing on a GSR cluster. the font on the tach is R but the rest is GSR Font. the tach almost looks a little darker in color too.

Definately a mix-n-match. Check the length and shade of the hash marks on the tach and speedo.

To confirm, that is a GSR cluster with an ITR tach and bezel
