ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    manual cluster

    When a 5spd swap is done can you use a manual cluster and have the gear indication gauge work properly

    #2
    The manual cluster doesn't have the gear selection part. Just fuel and temp gauges on that side. if you know how to drive stick, odds are you know what gear you're in.

          Please do not delete your threads once your questions have been answered. No smart ass comments were given in this thread. Your question was about the part that manual clusters do not have. That was the ONLY answer that could be given.

          You clearly haven't bothered trying to type coherently since our last interaction... now you're deleting threads and continuing to insult the people that are trying to help you. If you wish to remain a part of this community, I suggest you change your attitude.

            Just to follow up, have you seen a manual car that has a gear indicator in the cluster? If so, I want to see this. I'm sure it is possible, just never ran across it.

              I actually always wanted to find a way to rig up a gear indicator for a manual car. Wouldn't work for the CB, since the autos are 4 speed and the manuals are 5, but it would be interesting.

              There are times when I'm on the highway in 5th, and I go to upshift...

                Yeah, I do this as well sometimes, particularly with the Prelude transmission. My wife hates it when she drives Ruby.

                  Once again dont see how the og post was incoherent and I was unaware I had insulted anyone before hand I appreciate the answer but the remark about knowing what gear your in was not needed. I would like to continue remaining part of the community however since my first post I have been ridiculed on how I type and was directed to fix it once I fix it I get ridiculed for fixing the og post that was messed up followed buy a response to a question with 0 spaces which I was thankful for because I did not know I could buy diffs for usdm 5spds. the reason I ask is because I didnt know and when searching nothing came up because there are no posts about manual gear gauge clusters IE I made this thread and when answered I felt so embarrassed that I didnt want everyone to see so I removed it but you clearly didnt want that to happen just here to ridicule me some more. Im trying to contribute to this thread with my interior install but if I have to defend my self on every thread from you then no I dont want to remain but if thats not the case and I hope its not then I will carry on and once again thanks for the tip on the lds from obx

                    If we can't understand you, we can't help you. If we can't understand you, nothing you contribute is of any use to us. This is your last warning. If your next post is one giant run-on sentence that takes more effort to read than it does to respond to, you will be banned from this forum. As of this reply, your last post is your 29th. I'll be damned if you'll be allowed into the rest of the forum typing the incoherent gibberish that you currently offer. That's not how we do things around here.

                        Are we talking 90's Accords here? I have yet to see one! Would be cool to hook one up!

                        My wife's 6spd manual Mazda 3 sport has a gear indicator in the cluster......even flashes the gear number when you should shift. It's a fuel economy shift light. I never pay any attention to it...red line all the way!

                          Shouldn't be too hard...some LEDs, a magnet and some reed switches could do it. Just have to figure out how and where to mount the switches.

                            Yea
                            I asked this question because I have never seen a manual cluster on an accord, but my parents owned a 76 triumph tr6 had gear shift indicator/ I think it only had neutral and reverse lights. That being said I assumed the manual cluster had a gear gauge, but thats my mistake.
