guys need some help

want to put a dc2r clusrer into gen 2 crx, pretty much got the cluster and wiring to plug into ed plugs, where to buy it from and which electronic vss do i get? and if anyone has done this a little help would be sweet

all you need is dc2r cluster and plugs. And just rewire everything with wiring diagram. Just letting you know it might take a while so be patient.

u sure trung? i heard that u will need a new model vss say 92-95 eg because of the cable box and not hydro, did it work for u?

[mr180sx]

just remembered man. my brothers car had b16a2 conversion so it already had the hydro box!

Get on to Crx Australia. I helped John (ACS Drag) do this to his Crx. Took us all day, and thats with everything, diagrams etc.

All honda VSS units from about 1992-2000 that I am aware of, civics (EG, EK) integras, CRV all give the same reading from an electrical point of view. 680rpm gives a signal of 100km/h. So just have to find one that fits. Maybe try EG, but you may have to mod it. Also remember when getting one the auto and manual are different. Manual has plastic gear auto has metal gear. Don't use an auto one in a manual box as it will chew of the mating gear in the box and then you will really be up shit creek.

also have a look at this. similar thing to what you are doing

did abit more research, and some others day the d16y4 vss will work, do i just replace my existing vss and replace with this one and rewire it up?

well what you are replacing isn't a VSS. Should be cable drive, So remove the end from your gearbox and replace it with the VSS unit. Get wiring diagrams as you will have to wire up the VSS from the gearbox to the cluster and ecu, not sure where it gets split

This is not a straight forward conversion, you gotta know what your doing otherwise get someone who does to do the wiring. I also bought all the bits, cluster cover, speedo, plugs and decided i wasn't keen messing with my wiring and aftermarket ECU.... So i kept my stock dash.

[Mugen_B16B]

no need for ecu, just rewire up with the vss, thats pretty much straight forward there, couple of guys on crxaus helping me out so should be sweet but let u all no how it goes
