I wonder if that guage cluster will fit in an '03...


I did not notice on the USDM, but is the all red still an option? I though they were going back to the black/red combo. The pix above show both.

Is there any way to get that shift knob in the US?

That shift nob is standard in the US starting with '02 models, I think.

That gauge cluster does not look like it can be changed between mph and kmh like ours in North America (it's not like anybody in Japan can just "drive across the border" to another country that is in mph, so there's no need for that feature on the JDM cars. You would have to live with everything being in kmh with that cluster.

I'm sure it would work, but would be a pain to use on a daily basis. Have you ever switched yours over to kmh (if in the states) and driven around for a day? Try doing that math all day every day.

It also looks like the JDM cars don't have the windshield tape on them, either.

From these pics it looks like the ALL RED INTERIOR/DASH AND SEATS will be avail in Japan but not in the U.S. anymore:

I love it! I have to have the key. An S2k should have a little different look.

Nice post. Thanks!

I like the 2-toned leather and the taillights. Still prefer the older front/rear bumpers though. Oval tips look really nice and I think the wheels are definitely better than OEM.
