RSX Tachs

can someone tell me y i c 3 different tachs for the RSX?? i c one around 7K, the one i know of at 7,900K, and a third around 8,400K. i thought the engines were the same, perhaps i'm wrong.

Maybe because the one in the bottom is from Japan or Europe where they have a higher redline. I could be wrong though.

I bet one is the base model. One is the Type S and one is a Type R. Although I wasn't aware of the RSX having a Type R model in this year's release. Hmmm...

{edit - The Type R's steering wheel is on the wrong side. It's a Japanese version.}

is it possible that the higher red-lines in Japan = better performance??

plus, the Type R in Japan uses Potenza 17's

The first pic is a prototype from the car shows. The second pic is the US production version. The third pic is the UK/Japan Type R which I believe has 215hp (vs 200hp for the US model). We may see that in a year or so.

i can't see any of the pics except for the first one. but i think the first pic is a concept... so the tach is probably incorrect. as for the 2nd and 3rd pics... the RSX-S should have a 7900rpm redline... so that's correct. as for the 8400rpm redline... i don't know... RSX-R?
