Hey,
Im dealing with a guy who has a s14 jdm kouki cluster. He said the guy he bought it from said it's from a 5 speed, but I dont want it to come here and it end up being an auto. How can he test this thing to see whether it is from an auto or 5 spd. Is there a blank spot in the space of the O/D light, is there not bulb for the O/D light, or does the O/D light just not light up if you plug it in or whatever. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

what would be so wrong about it being an auto cluster? if you can't tell the difference by looking at it, does it matter?

Its the same cluster. Just remove the "OD" lightbulb B4 you install it, although it probably wouldn't light up anyway.

I head that an auto cluster doesnt work with a 5spd. It was on another post on these boards somewhere...

Why wouldn't it work?

You heard wrong, they're the exact same. The VSS is different, nothing else.
