Hi, sorry if this is a question asked over and over again
I currently have the jdm 180kph speedo cluster, instead of getting 110mph overlays I was going to buy the 160mph cluster
Do I need anything else to convert it or is it just a case of taking one out and putting the new one in? Didn't know if I needed something to convert it or that the cluster does the converting
Thanks
You keep your existing cluster and just swap out the speedo side of it with the new 160mph speedo, the circuit on the back of the speedo does the conversion so it will work straight away.
I did this. In theory you are supposed to put the delimiter back on at the ecu end but i never but can still do 130mph (as tested at castle combe). Strange as no delimiter has been fitted.

130 at Combe! Fair play.
Max speed we could get in Luke's rev2 turbo was 112 before slamming the anchors on for Quarry.
I just swapped a UK rev 1 Speedo into my JDM rev 1 and it worked fine.
You have finger the rev 1 as rev2 onwards went to electronic Speedo.
I also used the whole binacle as the UK tachometer has a security led that I used for my aftermarket alarm so I didn't have it in the plastics around the gear stick or dash.
