a JDM EURO accord?? isnt the JDM accord different than a euro one?

I'd say keep an eye on ebay, there are usually 5th gen JDM clusters on there... so maybe a 6th gen one will pop up.

Or not. He's asking for a Japanese Accord Euro-R gauge cluster. It's a model name. Equivalent to the 6th gen Type-R in Europe.

I don't think anything from a JDM/EDM 6th gen Accord will fit your car, bro...they're completely different sizes and designed totally differently.

u sure? cuz I took a look at the Euro R guage cluster from the new Import Tuner issue with the JDM parts feature, it looks almost exactly like the 6th gen USDM guage cluster besides the speedo reading kph instead of mph:dunno: I might be mistaken, but it would prolly clear things up a lil if some1 would post a side by side comparing pic of the USDM 6th gen guage cluster and the Euro R guage cluster

are you getting a new engine to match? cuz the speedo won't be accurate even if it fits.

Great. The Euro-R has a 220HP H22A. Why would you want the gauge cluster from that for your F23A4 Accord? Tach will redline like 1500 RPM too high and speedo will be in KMH.

Wouldn't all gages be working accurately. The tach would just never reach redline and the speedo will work in kmh. While on topic i'm suprised there arn't any (at least that i'v heard) type-r's imported from europe. I don't think it would be a big deal to import one since they are left hand drive and all that. Safety is probably up to par as well. It would be bad ass to have a type-r in the states.

I've seen them imported before.

That cluster will not fit without fabrication I think. It looks as if the housing is different. Maybe not though. If you can get one for cheap, it'd be neat though :dunno:
