Mine went straight to the T-bracket and then I just needed to adjust the tension with the adjustment nut on the e-brake handle.

Yeah, there's even a stock hole in the subframe that the lines run through and then straight to the T-bracket. I had no problems after I did that. I've parked on hills and everywhere.

Sweet Thanks. yeah i saw the hole your talking about.

looks like my cluster what did you use to make them glow red? i used a good ol sharpie lol. i did the needles red, and the back light orange. looks so good and still hasnt faded. i scuff the bulbs up with 600grit and do 5 coats with the sharpie. but yours looks on the brighter side

Post by **idahotuner** » Fri Mar 14, 2008 10:59 am

dude i want to change the color of my cluster how did you do it jordan?

Post by **Slideways^Jordan** » Fri Mar 14, 2008 1:13 pm

its easy lol if you dont have your dash installed yet lol.

I just changed out the bulbs i bought 3 packs(6 bulbs total) of Polarg B1 Hybrid amber bulbs that came in 2 bulbs per pack at only 10$ a pack it beats useing the cheap imatating bulbs that fade these are guarenteed not to fade . I bought the bulbs from one of the Nico sponsors http://www.importintelligence.com/index.html

where did you get your freddy intake? how much? fit nice?

Post by **idahotuner** » Fri Mar 14, 2008 5:31 pm

isnt it a top speed intake mani?

thanks dude i will hit up those links i think read will look sweet. my dash is installed but i have pulled my cluster out before so that is probably all i would have to do

Post by **inkslingers13** » Sat Mar 15, 2008 6:46 am

idahotuner just give the sharpie a shot before you go spend the money. if you dont like it buy the bulbs, mine looks exactly the same, never faded, all im saying is its worth a shot before you spend the money, mines orange though and looks SICK!thanks

Post by **Slideways^Jordan** » Mon Mar 17, 2008 8:14 pm

My intake manifold is A TOPSPEED intake manifold its badass and i love it its like the next best thing to the real deal like the greddy intakes all the others are freddys. lol

The red bulbs are sweet their going to match all of my guages and my turbo timer in my car once everthing is in and working properly, they lighting will really standout alot i cant wait to see it all done. Im ordering 6 more packs of the red this week for my s13 hatchback and my friends s14 Kouki.

when you switch the 7.5k tach into the usdm cluster, there's nothin else you gotta do right?

umm idk for sure but im just useing the cluster that came off my front clip and then i just swaped out the kilometer faceplate to the MPH.

Post by **idahotuner** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 5:29 pm

^ werd up using the one that comes with clip. i dont know about swaping out the face plates though. it would still be off. just ride jdm.

yeah its awsome cuase i know the exact milage on my engine around 75000 miles .

and i have tested the accuracy of the speedometer and its still a little off but very close.

Post by **idahotuner** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 9:42 am

haha my engine has 40,000 on it clean as a whistle too.

so does your speedo read mph or kph

Post by **Slideways^Jordan** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 4:00 pm

lol sweet man thats really clean i wish mine had only 40,000 but o well lol its still really low compared to my old KA that had 243,000 miles.

actually when i pulled out the needle in the speed gueage it actually was a little off when i put it back in but it can read both kph and mph yo just swap out the face plate but the mph face reads both so i just stick with that.

But the main reason im useing this gauge is for the mileage and most important the RPM's on the JDM tach reads up to 9000rpm, unlike the usdm's 8000 rpm reading capabilitie.

Post by **idahotuner** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 4:12 pm

yeah i am going to do the mod on my speedo so it can read in mph, but will say kph o nthe bottem. haha it will go all the way up to 180 mph, though. check out this link dude. if i dont do my own i will resort to buying this. http://www.lsauto.com/products.asp

Post by **Slideways^Jordan** » Wed Mar 19, 2008 5:45 pm

Dude ben your amazeing i have been looking for that gauge face since last summer man and i coudnt find it anywere now im buying it now. Thanks a millinion for the link.
