That would be great!Thank you!

I somehow don't think that a stock speedo will work for you as far as top speed goes. Mine reads to 160kph (100mph) (factory) and I can wind it off the dial. But I guess your case that the authorities will never know unless they take it out on the autobahn and give it some

It would be ok for the inspection i think because mine i have in now only shows 135 kph (85 mph) and thats definetly not enough!
I think the inspector would be scared of going to the limit!

Do you count in kph or mph in australia?

bb1979 · 11-11-2007, 09:22 PM

We count in kph over here. I'll get a photo of my gauge if you'd like

That would be very nice!

Mine (Canadian) goes up to 140KMS (85 MPH)

Sorry it took so long to get some photos be real busy the last week.

1st & 2nd shot - My dad's 1977 Pickup cluster, reads in km/h but no km/h written on the gauge so I would assume that you could recalibrate it to read in mph if you wanted to.

3rd shot is my 1979 cluster again reads to 160km/h

Thanks for the pics!
A factoryspeedo in kph should solve one of my problems!
I try to get one!
