ok guys here is my dilema....when i owned the ls i sold a week ago i purchased a jdm itr cluster and put in the ls with no problems. the ls is a 1999 by the way

then the kid wanted to trade the jdm one for my usdm and when we switched, everytime you hit the turn signals the tach and temp needle went ape ****...it seemed everything is switched around??

any help would be great...thanks guys i love being in the R family now!

 

2 Options:

1: Switch the green circuitry on the rear of the cluster, just make sure whatever cluster you are using, use the USDM circuitry. If you have a 96 spec cluster for sure, 98 specs are usually fine.

2: Get another USDM cluster for dirt cheap, swap out the JDM temp/tach/speedo/and fuel gauges over to the USDM cluster.

It's a pretty easy process either way...

 

JDM ITR clusters are MUCH cheaper than USDM ITR clusters. I found that out when I needed to buy one.....

 

I actually have the housing of a USDM ITR cluster if you want it, has everything except the actual gauges...

 

well i thought i was getting a pretty good deal when he wanted to trade me the jdm itr cluster for my usdm itr cluster but o well....yea i might do that or just leave it with the original usdm itr and call it a day

The green film is extremely easy to switch. Just take your time and lay everything out through the process and everything will go as planned.

 

just switch out the green film on the back. make sure it's from a 98 - up cluster. i've had the same problem with mine. it's just a bad film.

 

I need a USDM ITR cluster.

 

I don't get it. Why would you trade-out your USDM cluster with the caRs actual mileage on it?? Just for yellow needles and the wrong speed units?

Ask the douche bag I bought my ITR from. He traded the door panels, CF trim and stock cluster to a guy for GSR stuff, because he needed more money than I was offering him for the car. Oh yeah, he did this while I was on my way to look at the car. I should of left when I saw the car, but I was stubborn and wanted an ITR.

 

JDM ITR MUCH BETA SPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE!

Yeah. It sucked at Expo looking at a bunch of nice ITRs, and mine looked like a theft recovery with mismatching parts.

 

It's all good, no worries, you'll get her like you want her... Did that idiot chop some of the price for you at least?

I paid salvaged price on a clean title, so I was okay with it. Not happy, but okay.
