I think I have seen this mod but upon doing a search I couldnt find a thing, can anyone direct me to a thread that might cover this?

 

which are you speaking of...the gauge cluster, or the rb panel kit?

 

I would also like to see what your talking about.

 

yeah im interested in this too...i dont think it can be done though...

 

i mean the cluster ( with or without the cover as in the pic ) . I'm sure I've seen someone with the cluster setup in their FD

 

You are thinking of the white lights put into the stock cluster.

 

Damn thought I was going to see a picture of the rx8 cluster in a FD. Thats a RX8 though.

 

maaaaaaan...got me all excited i thought somebody actually did it...sigh

 

i dont know who would want to put the rx8 cluster in the fd. in my opinion its ugly, the spedometer is electronic, and it looks like the 350z's. i think the fd's is beautiful and can be modified many other ways to give it a more sleek and unique look.

 

and how's that?

 

feed cluster
spirit r cluster
install your own gauges in the cluster
led gauge mod

seach the forum...

 

I think the rx8 cluster looks awesome. I wish someone can do it with a writeup so others can do it like myself.

 

i have tracked down a cheap RX8 cluster and now I'm just searching for an FD console to fit it into, will keep you posted on progress.

I agree with the different types of faces you can replace your FD faces with but as far as replacing the actual cluster iteslf, I think that would be pretty unique.

 

FEED Cluster is discontinued.

 

i just like the carbon on it. or is that carbon "LOOK".

 

yeah i knw abt that but i think itd be pretty funky if someone actually managed to pull it off...

@spekdah: neway gluck man and be sure to have a write up ready for us

 

i prefer the stock over the rx8 personally

 

Trust a kiwi to do something totally random.... good luck with it dude, and definately post a write up on how it goes for ya.
Props for an orginal idea!

 

+1 on the kiwi ingenuity!! Trust us to try something like this. I hope you manage to get around the electrical side of things as I have heard the RX8's are a bitch with thier wiring!! good luck and make sure you keep us posted.

 

it won't just be as simple as re-wiring the dash. the speed, rpm, water temp etc... will more then likely be not compatible. so you'll have to use the sensors from an rx8 and they they won't be compatible with the ecu... yeh sure it could be done but it would be a big job for someone who knows what they are doing. then you need make up a custom dash to house the thing.

Trust an Aussie to come in and tell it like it is :P

 

photoshop

 

fingers crossed!!!

 

Trust a Kiwi to get the job done! ha ha

 

we'll see

 

whats the update man!!!
