[QUOTE=jibber951,Feb 23 2010, 02:31 AM] So the solution for a missing oil pressure gauge is to swap the S2000 dash with an RSX dash? Wouldn't it be easier to simply add an oil pressure gauge?

I wouldn't mind doing the dashboard... if I could keep my S2000 cluster... I love the digital.

ohhhhhh wait a minute, this guy wants to swap the entire dash??? I guess I didnt read well enough. I wouldnt do that, only the cluster itself. The S2K dash is way better.

any true sports car has an oil pressure gauge and the s2k cluster lacks it.

But it has one!!!

I just bought some coilovers so no more funds. I'll start looking for an rsx type-s MT cluster in a few weeks.

I drew an oil pressure gauge on my dash with a sharpie. Work really well once the car warms up.

It seems we're forgetting that this car is built to be simple.

The big sweeping tac is all I need. speed, temp, fuel, time etc, they're all extras. I cannot remember the last time I looked at the dash for more than a few seconds.

I suspect people who want the change don't realize how good it is. RSX dash looks alright, the S2000 dash is hot. Anyone who's stepped into my car loves the dash. The arching tac is just so hot. beats all the boring 'round' tacs.

The only way I'd see it improved is with a digital version in a LCD display. But frankly the car is 'made' for so many other reasons.
