whats a b16a's top speed?
i swapped a b16a into my 93 civic dx that doesnt come with a tach, i bought one..but then that was stolen, so now i just want to get a cluster that has a redline at the right spot (8200) and has a top speed higher or equal to what my car can push, what cluster would i be looking for?
a jdm cluster will have the right redline and fit properly if you don't mind reading kph.
otherwise, a gs-r cluster can be swapped without *too* much trouble. Do a search, I think Outxider and maybe some other members have done this. The actual redline will be a touch lower, but there will be more than enough room on the tach to rev out the b16a as far as it will go. I think the speedo goes to 140 or 160 or something :thinking: either way, its far faster than your civic will ever go.

Um...... no.
purchase a jdm eg6 cluster. best looking. reads in kph, but you'll figure it out easily after a few days.
if not get a 92-95 civic si/ex cluster. that is all. plug and play nothing to do, other than swap them in. no special anything.
