i just realized that the oil pressure is gone in favor of the boost and the speedo is in km/h instead of mph. does anyone know if they plan on making a USDM version?

Just got off the phone since my assitant said we already FAXed.
Ok they are thinking/trying to do it. The proble or kind of problem is they will need your gauges to covert, just like FEED does. They dont have a price on it yet, but they said maybe around $1k. this is a future thing, no hard info as in dates or anything.

FWIW, my stock gauge reads 180kph. We can actually use the US stock gauge in our cars, but it'll SAY 180 mph, but we know that it's only 180 kph.

Because I have Japan 98 cluster and it reads 180km/hr.. and ITS 180km/hr.. not 180MPH.. so, I would think US spec gauges will read US spec in Japanese cars??

Herblenny--I just got confused reading your reply to J-spec.
He said KPH not MPH if it matters..
Either way--On US spec gauges of course no MPHs anymore. It would be all j-spec only KPH. 0-300KPH clusters are pretty crowded, but I mean if you have a gauge that goes that high anyway, WHY would you be worried about about the closeness of speeds hehe

But guys, isn't the BF look just white backlighting?
It would be the same as stock but stock uses a less bright light and a tinted orange gauge cover.

Okay...I think you confused yourself. The 180 KPH is what we have in Japan. The US has 180 MPH. HOWEVER, the 180 MPH can be used in JSPEC cars. The speedometer may SAY 180 mph, but it reads EXACTLY THE SAME as a 180 KPH car does.

Maybe I just misread your thread...
All I was saying is that when my Jspec cluster reads 160KPH, its 160KPH..
when My US spec read 160MPH, its 160MPH..
All I was pointing out is that gauges are interchangeable and that it just reads KPH or MPH.. but still measures your speed.
Anyhow, Let us know about Rmagic gauge clusters..
