I just want the technology. I have seen it done with the CEL, but this is innovative. It is bright.

"I just want the technology" ... LOL



Because LED's are like the wave of the future, man. They weren't invented in like ... 1927 or anything.

I am not talk about the LED's, I am talking about the lights changing like a shift light. LED's or Not I want my gauges to change to red when it is time to shift like that.

It's wired into VTEC; basically a glorified VTEC light. I agree it's pretty sweet, but would be even better if it was wired as an actual shift light, or ramped through the colors as RPM's increased (this would take some advanced skills). Nice find.

That is kinda cool.

But running your car like that on Jack stands is bad for your motor. There is no bearing load.

Looks cool for carshows and all, but it is a bit too bright. Didn't like the red LEDs?
