I purchased an 89 ef guage cluster thinking I was going to get a jdm one. Instead, I got one that has French writing on it. Has anyone ever seen one of these?

 

EDM perhaps?........ Euro model.

 

Its Canadian. I just hadn't ever seen one before wasn't sure haha

 

Yeah, I don't get too much in to the "JDM" or elsewhere stuffs! lol My CRX was made in Canadia! EH!

 

no crx was ever made in canada.

 

actually they did, they were a special edition, only came in silver and only 250 were made

 

more rare than jdm

 

if its a legit candian rex do not get rid of it and if you do bring it to florida and ill buy it

 

Of course the CRX was made in Canada. Doi!

Yeah, that's definitely a CRX cluster. I've had a couple kicking around before... do the American clusters not have French writing on them?!

 

not trying to be a dick but why would they, after all they are american crxs

 

What does the VIN start with on a CRX Special Edition in Canada?

 

2hgca

 

No ****, you learn something every day. I thought they were all made in Japan.

 

ive got a canadian cluster but mines all in english ...it's a ghetto budget jdm cluster

 

canadian cluster but its JDM?!?!?! confused now

 

it reads in kph so noobs and ricer boys think its jdm ..........all i got it for was so i could have a tach that matched the rev limiter on my z6

 

this cluster was more than likely sold in a vehicle in a province in Canada that has both English and French as its official first language, hence the writing in both english and french.

 

there is a Honda manufacturing plant in Canada. I'll snap a pic of the next 2hged crx that I find.

 

Everybody calm down. Canadian_EF is correct. There are two (2) manufacturing plants in Allison, Ontario. One has been operating since '86, the other since '98. As far as I can tell, all 4th gen Civics and CRXs were produced from the first plant, particularly because it is documented as being the only plant on the continent that was both operating and producing Civics specifically during that time frame. CRXs are technically a variant of the Civic model, so therefore CRXs would have been produced in said plant as well.

Exactly...

Also

All gauge clusters are like that in Canada. We're technically bilingual. Damn near everything is like that. I just found 2 of these clusters in my shed, probably gonna put em on ebay.

 

canada had its own release of the crx,they made like 250 it was a CRX se, only made in sliver, painted body moldings, double din stereo, rear spoiler, and power windows if i remember right

 

The North American spec Civic was made in Canada for the ED chassis. The CRXs came from Japan, not a hard concept here. Look at your VINs. They all start with a J if it's a CRX and a 2 if it's a civic.

 

Warning -- Keep all discussions in this thread civil and focused on tech.

 

my 90 civic hatch was made canada.
