Sweet setup man

Full-Race stage 1?

Awesome job on the cluster

 

i love that cluster. do you have anymmore pics of it?

 

that cluster is SWEET! i'd paint it to get rid of the brush alumn myself. but nice job!

 

is it just ls turbo?? dont see a vtec head on it
but nice anyways

 

Heres a few more pics of the cluster its not realy anything special nice and simple. As far as painting it im still thinking about it its not set in the car yet. I cant deside if i want to paint it black becuase it would be to much black but im leaning toward it due to the other guage cluster i made to replace the middle vents will be black. Will post some pics of it up later today after paint.

 

how does the MPH work? electric? connected to a electric VSS? adjustable?

Im using a hydrolic gsr tranny so it will run off the vss and then calibrate it by driving exactly 2 miles. Doesnt matter how fast just as long as trip it drive 2 miles then you trip it again and its ready to go.

im an idiot,,sorry..

 

Its cool I should have prolly put that in there. If you look at the pic with the hood and stuff on, in the bottom right and corner you can see the head lol.

 

oh wow,,thats a very nice setup..

im looking at how you did the radiator and i like it,, but i hate it..it looks like you have to remove the rad support to fill it?? and what fan are you going to use?

 

Ya most of the radiator support was removed but i would rather have that then have to lean another style in there. Im using an 11 slim fan fits no problem.

 

is your tach and speedo 3 3/8?, after seeing your cluster i want to do one like that

 

Yes there 3 3/8's

 

Updated with new pics

 

look familiar??

just kidding..its looking good in there and i like how all the gauges are visible unlike other setups ive seen..any pics of the crx hiding in the back?

 

The blue car is actualy an eg hatch.

 

good work!
