Though for a very long time, I was under the same impression, that the stock tach was really off, but it turns out, it's actually the computer has lag,...

will it fit?

i was wondering would the whole jdm center console inluding the jdm e-brake cover fit in a usdm type r?

it may be a dumb question but the guy who is selling one to me told me that it may not fit in a usdm integra because its left hand drive instead of the right hand drive that it came out of.
