Soon i will be recieving an eg hatch front clip from Japan and i am aware that the guage cluster comes in kilometers, but my question is, Does the mph sit in little numbers right below the Kilometers, like how kilometers sit in a Usdm gauge cluster? Thanks

 

No EG-6 cluster is str8 KmH.

 

10kph = 6mph

 

just make urself a cute little chart

 

it will take you a day to learn it, you wont need a card, typically i jsut do like 80kn on the street, and 120 on highway (48 and 72)

 

Yeah, you'll get used to it. It's no problem.

 

a little OT, but is it possible to change just the needles on gauges clusters? As in having "jdm" needles on a "usdm" cluster. Thanks!

 

Just tell the Cop you dont know how fast your going. j/k

 

NO!

only canada does that, since the USA is the only country that uses MPH nearbye

we should all convert anyways since years form now it will be this way, which has always made more sense, conversions suck

No we should strive as americans to defy anything and everyone don't you love the fact that chemistry and about every other science course is difficult because you have to convert every damn thing

 

Damn that sucks! Oh well i guess i will have to get used to it then....yeah ill tell the cop if he can look at my guage cluster and figure out why a honda reads up to 240, ill let him give me the ticket! lol

 

Reads up to 118mph

most cops wont even notice that you have a different cluster, but the ones that do won't buy that you didnt know how fast you were going, but you'll get used to it in one day no problem. jdm bump!

 

all u need to know is 60 = 35mph
but if u really want to know how fast yur going, multiply the mph by .625

 

30mph=50
35mph=60
60mph=100
100mph=160

when I was driving in the US, It took me a while to get use to it. But after a few hour or so, no problem. hard to calculate distance when it said 100 to a certain place, when in reality it is 160km to me.

Beside, most of the time we follow others' speed anyways.

 

I just got a little post-it and wrote the coversions. I got use to it pretty quickly. Just remember if your driving 100km, your actually going 60mph. You can use this as a starting point when your driving onto the freeway.

 

i have a jdm cluster and dont' worry about getting used to it. it takes like 2 days. every 40 km/h is 25 mph. just remember that and multiply by 2. (school zone purposes hahah) or go to yahoo.com and search for kilometers to mph. hehe
