2001CivicDx

What are the advantages of driving a DX as opposed to other higher trims? All I can think of is less weight, but not by much. Windows and doors manual.

I'm also wondering if I can take out my dash cluster and swap another one that has a tachometer, since it's a manual. So if I do that, am I gonna retain my odometer reading, and have it keep on recording?

Thanks

It's lighter and there is less that can break.

You can swap clusters but the odometer will be off unless you can find a cluster with the exact same mileage that you currently have.

In my 94 DX I was able to swap out the speedo when I swapped clusters. Is that not possible in the 01s?

The odometer is digital and the whole cluster has to be changed. It's a molded cluster of all the gauges.

Gear ratios are different in the LX/DX from EX so they're a tad slower but get a little bit better mpg on average.

The gear ratio makes for slower acceleration, and would have a higher top speed if the ecu didn't limit it to ~110

60mile daily commute with mostly highway, cruise control is almost more important then mpg's to me!!
