S2000 Gauge Cluster Swapped In a Acura NSX

apkarian100 · 07-08-2009, 10:10 PM

In a means to update the Acura NSX, I swapped a S2000 gauge cluster in a Acura NSX. It took 3 months of R&D to finally get everything to work, but I pulled it off. Here are some pics:

Old Gauge Cluster:

New Gauge Cluster:

The new gauge cluster trim will soon have carbon fiber, instead of the aluminum.

I like you, but **** did you make a wrong turn.

Should've cleaned the steering wheel instead.

Meh, ugly but still better than the original...barely.

I agree. The original fits the car better.

apkarian100 · 07-08-2009, 10:14 PM

No way. The NSX cluster was so 80s looking. This brings it right up to speed.

How did you get the 4-cylinder tach to read the output signal from a 6-cylinder engine?

Pearl Jam · 07-08-2009, 10:14 PM

That looks horrible. Why would you change anything in a NSX like that? Fail.

Good luck if you ever try selling it.

Whitford · 07-08-2009, 10:17 PM

Don't quote like this.

Agreed. I know these are getting fairly cheap, but we're not dealing with a late 90's Civic here. Don't tell me I need to hock a kidney now to get one now before they're all ruined. Also:

cool story, bro.

Daggah · 07-08-2009, 10:19 PM

Analog gauge cluster > digital, one of the only things holding me back from wanting an S2000 is the lame looking digital cluster. So sorry...not feeling this at all.

What the **** did I just say??

Nothing wrong with quoting this way man. I'm not sure why you have an issue.

The S2000 has one of the worst gauge clusters ever designed.
Should've invested the money in a supercharger to make the NSX faster than a minivan.

apkarian100 · 07-08-2009, 10:24 PM

Well, I'm still getting paid to do these conversions.

Some people like it, some don't. It's the way of the world.
