well, if anyone has been flooking what i am doing......nothermind, i like the way it looks.


i am dropping in a built b20b, i rewmoved all the cavtory wiring and re wired the car with an aftermarket wire kit. i am running sidedraft carbs so there will be no ecu. i can try to figure out how to wire the factory tach, but i figured this one might be a lil more acurate

my guess is that since he rewired the car, he didnt want to go through the trouble of making the honda tach work. so he got a more acurate one, you'll know when your about to over rev with that one for sure. IMO, thats a nice looking tach, i never really like white face ones like most people have. i myself would probley go with a smaller one and somehow mount it where the original one goes in the gauge cluster.

if it was me, i would have just built a new dash and put the new tach and whatnot inside the stock cluster area, but thats just me im not a fan of havig a massive tach on the side, excuse the pun but it just looks tacky, again im all for the sleeperish look so thats the way i would have done it, anyways its a nice looking tach

id run 2 tachs but i only need one. A shift light would help though

Of course it is. Just buy one. Basically hooked up the same as a tach. You dont need a huge obnoxious tach if you already have one in your dash (accords do) so just add a shift light and either mount it in the dash or on the steering column. I need to get one too
