Hey bro!
I was able to confirm today that the 2012 SE gauge Cluster will swap with the standard gauge cluster on 09-11 models. No codes, no wiring issues or anything.
With that being said.. the odometer info is actually stored within 3 location in the car, and one of them being inside the cluster itself. This means you couldn't swap with someone and drive away like nothing happened.
What I was thinking is that, I might buy an SE cluster and have the service center "flash" my old info into the new cluster and then sell you my cluster for $50 cheaper than whatever the lowest cost you find on ebay or amazon. This way no one is without a cluster and the info can be transferred seamlessly. I make up some cost by selling my old one to you, and you get a white cluster that you've wanted for a good deal and a trustworthy person.
What ya think??

just a small update nothing crazy I'm currently running on 19x9+25 front (2" lip) and 19x10+25 back (3"lip). I will swap the back wheels to the front then swap the front to the back with a much bigger lip(4.5").Newer spec will be 19x10+25 front and rear will be 19x11+?.I'm not planning on running massive camber.The quarters will be pulled by at least 1.5'' or more until desired fitment is achieved so bodywork and paint will be involved. Stay tuned...

"Nothing crazy"???
Only a little bit of bodywork and respray of panels to fit the new crazy offset wheels. No big deal.

Yeah nengun sells it.. I think that's where sav got his from. If you do buy it, make sure you get the correct parts though. Nengun carries a few different items from Mugen for the CU2,

^^HAHA gents thanks
so today I did quite a good amount of work wheels were put together(pita) hoping to have the tires install and get it stance,hoping I won't have to pull much .Below I will briefly show the process of putting a 3 piece wheel together.
I then took my inner barrel and tried to align the holes as much as possible with outer lip
put the face one with the bolts and torque them
It's now time to seal them,I used masking tape where the inner and outer barrel meet,so when I spread the silicone it doesn't make a mess
Silicone used can be found at your local home depot
Using my fingertip I nicely spread it
Tape removed and VOILA it came out real good for a first time hoping there will be no leak

Also like most of you know I have the function and form type 2, the spring rates are 12kg front and 8kg rear, they are a bit softer for my liking, I then started to do some research to find out how I can stiff them up.I contacted Function and form and ask them if they had stiffer replacement, all they offer was the eibach spring that go up to 14kg.I know it would not be enough for way I wanted my ride.I was also told by the tech that I could up to 16kg on the front and up to 12kg on the back without revalving the coils.Well I ended getting Hypercoil spring,I wanted Swift but they were a bit expensive but they both are great and are highly recommended.
New spring rate 18kg front and 12kg rear
the hypercoil springs right
coilover taken apart
put it all together install them and took it for a ride and wow I'm in love with it.
