hey there i have an ep2, im thinking of buying Type R clocks, but will every thing work ok? or will the speedo be out etc? many thanks sorry if its a repost.

im not sure they will mate cause got different revs and top speed so may not give correct readings

[drunknspike]

just keep the sport ones in dont see the point of changing them

thats what i was thinking but some one must of tryed it lol

I'd say keep your own - I test drove a Type R replica the other week, it was crap. When the car redlined at about 6500-7000rpm it just didnt look right when compared to the dials, just makes it look as though your engine doesnt work right imo. Keep yours mate

[BassKicksDan]

Yeah, theres no point changing them mate. Waste of money!

hmmm i dont know i want my car to look like a Type R, so the fuel speed all works normal?

I'm not sure pal, I didnt ask the guy whose car it was because he was a really dodgy guy, i just know the revs looked stupid stopping halfway up the limiter, not even sure if the spoodo was accurate, said i was doing 5mph when i was stationary at lights lol!
So your guess is as good as mine about the fuel gauge - probs safer asking honda theirselves - best bet.. keep your own they look very similar

I think Honda are able to re-calibrate them, but what is the point? They look pretty much identical! Save the time, money, and hassle and just leave them in

[smithy07]

ok think i will leave this one lol, thanks guys

I had alot of issues with my clocks, I got Type R ones and everything was out and wrong. Honda can sort it all for you but my quote was for 300 the only diff between Type R clocks and ep2 is the logo if you want he look then buy a sticker job done

you can buy Type R stickers to put on the dials so itll look more like a Type R one.
