Default Cluster Difference?

Anyone know why these two clusters are different? Where can we get the 270 max km/h from..

The top one is the USDM ITR cluster the bottom one is the JDM ITR cluster.

But that is in km/h? Are the type R engines the same in the JDM,USDM & UKDM? Meaning all of them can really hit 270?

USDM engines only measure in MPH, the speed sensors aren't calibrated to measure KM/H as the metric system supports terrorism.

You need a JDM cluster if you want to have correct readings in Canada as the USDM cluster will only work properly once you go to the USA.

If you go on inlinefour.com

Mugen has the Piece you need, its about$400 for it however. Reads to 260 km/h though!

LoL dyam, ---- that. Another question guys, When I push my RPM to like 6 and shift to second, the rpm goes to zero and stays there until I shift to 3rd..Anyone know what could be wrong? Also on normal driving, Around 2.7rpm.. the pointer shakes and then when I switch to next gear it goes to what its suspose to be at if it didn't shake..Help?

^^^^^^

Have your torque converter checked out, that's the leading cause of RPM indication lossage while in 2nd gear.

5spds don't have torque converters, its most likely something to do with your gauge cluster or a faulty wire from your speed sensor? <----- not sure about that one.

Of course, how else is the torque supposed to be converted from horsepower which drives the wheels?.

Horsepower = spins the engine
Torque = spins the wheels
