REV LIMIT FOR GLI/CXI?

[CWAZI]

i had just test drove a gli/cxi civic yesterday and noticed there was no rev meter ... can anybody tell me when redline starts cuz i'm going to have to fit a aftermarket rev meter. Also is it possible to fit the vtir speedo display which consist of the rev meter?

thanx

[[[d a n n y]]]

but i am pretty sure...

the d serise engines cut out at 7.5 ?

i think

assuming that you are talking about an EK model, the gli does bring a rev meter but not the cxi, i have a gli and the redline is at 6800rpm

the whole rev meter goes up to 8000rpm on the gli model and the vtir model goes to 9000rpm

the whole rev meter goes up to 8000rpm on the gli model and the vtir model goes to 9000rpm

****ed if it means anything on a stock engine, VTiRs only make power to around 8100 then it drops off, Thats before redline, so why rev past it :P.

So you are sure to be in VTEC when you change gears
Lol, na I dunno some people just like to rev the shit outta their cars :P

[nobbs]

dude i was just letting CWAZI know seeing as there is a difference between the 2

im not saying its best to rev your car to 9000rpm.....

[SIKCVC]

ohh sorry :P

and yeah sometimes drops out of vtec if you shift at like 75

[fozee]

nobbs is spot on.

GLi has a Tach, redline around 6800 RPM.
I redlined my HB today and it didnt go any further than 7100 before dying in the arse.

I dont rev the shit out of my engine i just use every bit of power as i can.

[A'PEXi]

yeh im pretty sure its around 7k mark

since we're kinda on the topic, why is it the Gli gets a tacho and not the CXi?? Bearing in mind the EK models here.

[vtecinaccord]

Ahh well Toe the Cxi doesnt get a tacho because its the "BASE" model.

[ATSE]

If u want to intall a tach... then...

pop your hood, towards the upper left next to the clutch reservoir there is a bunch of wires. The blue one with the adapter head is the one for tacho...

Buy a tacho kit from Jaycar or somthing and then use your imagination

But to be honest... why in the world do you want to know the rev limit for a Cxi? U wanna drag someone or somthing?
