All i know is that newer (98+) usdm clusters have the ABS icon at the top right while the older integras have them at the bottom right.

I'm not sure about the exhaust temperature one, the spoon cluster has that also...how does that work?

Are you sure it's a exhaust temp icon? It could be a cat icon for OBD2 or something.... Why bother buying an JDM cluster? Get an Euro cluster instead. Everything is the same except that the speedo goes to 270 km/h!!!

Dayum mang! Don't joo know that its JDM yo?

BTW, I have JDM vibrators for sale. $10 I know the ladies like that JDM feel. Add an extra $2 for VTEC.

Yip its the cat over temp light. I'm pretty sure 96's do have it, I'll check when I go home.

I have a 96 JDM ITR Cluster. Its identical to the one in the lower pic except mine doesnt have the SRS icon. It has the Cat temp icon sensor deal on the left side. I have been told on JDM cars it is lit until the cat heats up to optimum operating tempature. However i am not 100% on that one.

Looks fine to me, cept i thought the speedo goes to 220km/hr or something.. i dunno, can't really check either since the car ain't kept in the house i'm in at the moment.

Kilometre based speedos..

I could be backwards then. I remember the 96 and 98 one having the light, one not.. I have a 19,000KM one sitting on my stove without the light so if anyone knows which year doesn't I'd like to know.. me thought 96 but me was wrong it seems

190KM/H max speed is correct though, remember JDM ECU's are speed limited to 118mph

I going to remember that the next time someone's pretending everything JDM is better. LOL...
yah.. i think thats the only downfall about JDM cluster.. it goes up to 190mp/h mph.. i love the euro/aust specs tho.. 220km/h..

Who really wants JDM clusters anyways... The speedo is for 190kph only. Why get JDM when you have one that works perfectly fine. The JDM speedo provides no performance enhancing ability over the USDM one so IMHO, it's pretty damn dumb to get one...
