I own a 1989 Civic DX. As it's a DX, it does not have a tach (as well as power steering and some other "luxuries"). I was wondering if anyone with the same car/motor could tell me at what speeds redline comes in each gear (it does have a speedometer). Thanks for the help.

 

Gear RPM1* RPM2 Speed @ 6500 RPM
1st 0 6500 34.68
2nd 3788 6500 59.50
3rd 4321 6500 89.51
4th 4837 6500 120.28
5th 5349 6500 146.17
this is saying if your running 175/70/13.....if your running any other size tire go re calculate it.

eh reminds me.....i have a 89 crx hf guage cluster sitting in my garage which has a tach but a red line of 5500..... pay shipping and its yours.

 

146.17 mph?

 

The cluster is fully functional I take it? This is probably a dumb question, but I guess I'd be dumber not to ask it, the 5500 redline on the cluster won't affect the actual redline rpm of the motor will it? it'll just look like i'm running over if i go that high. another question, will the odometer/trip meter line up right with the new cluster? thanks again.

 

the cluster is a direct bolt in affair for you. yes it will just look like your taking your car way into the red zone and will not affect your factory fuel cut out. the cluster itself is fully functional, it came out of my 89 hf. i ended up swapping to a spare si cluster i had.

 

Ok, let me know how much shipping will be. email me at shorty3788@comcast.net . I'm leaving for germany tomorrow for about 10 days but i'll get back to you as soon as i get back. just send me the info on the best method of payment etc. thanks again for all the help.

 

hey, are you still interested in getting rid of the cluster? let me know. shorty3788@comcast.net
