I am about to build another Integra and I have a couple questions. I have looked for the answers and I can't seem to find any good information.

1. Is there any other Honda shifter that will shorten my throw, and will also lower where the shiftknob sits? I want my shiftknob low. I would like to have the boot flush with the **** and still have slack in the bottom of the boot.

2. Has anyone used a gauge cluster from one of the newer civics? The S2000 cluster has been used, and I was wanting to know if the newer civic's clusters would fit.

3. Are aftermarket lugnuts ok to use with OEM Honda wheels? I.E. LS Meshes.

4. Where is the cheapest place to get a JDM Front End?

 

Attempting to help to the best of my knowledge:

1. No, you will not find an OEM short shifter for a DC2.

2. No threads on the cluster from the newer civics, based on the shape I'm not sure how that fit would work.

3. Yes...see the marketplace, there is also another vendor in the marketplace that sells aftermarket lugs w/a special "pitch" washer that allows you to do this. Was not able to find that link though:

4. Subjective...shipping something like this is going to cost an arm and a leg, and possibly even a ******** or two. I'd recommend looking into a local shop that has access to the JDM front, perhaps they'll cut a deal for you if its installed "in house." Password also sells the conversion, but I've never ordered from them.

 

Thanks, I was wondering if there is an OEM shifter like a del sol, or another one that will fit. I was thinking about getting extended lugs anyway. Does anyone trust ebays jdm fronts with the buy it now and free shippng?
