Default Guages

would it be possiible, if i bought a new set of guage faces (the metric version) that i could get someone to adjust the needle to the metric numbers, but in mp/h? i want my guages to go up to 200 instead of 120 [>:]

i dont really car if it says (km/h)... not like people hop in your passenger seat and checks you speedo to make sure its in MPH lol

but it wouldn't go up to 200mph it would only go up to 200kph, wouldn't it be better for you to try and get a GT cluster working at least you will get up to i think like 240-250 kph...

Saleen gauges go to 200 mph, I'd look into those first.

i emailed them a while ago and they said they would not sell it

i was also thinking about getting a metric speedo and attempting blacking out the mph part

i dont really car if it says "km/h" but what i wanted to knwo was can someone tune the speedo to the new numbers-- its just numbers, it dosent matter if the little paper face plate says mp/h or km/h as long as theres numbers...

Maybe the reason Steeda won't sell is to keep the fakes down in number.

Anyways, those are 140... I'd say Saleen's are your best bet. I think you'd have a hard time calibrating a full metric (if you could even find one) to make it standard. Not to mention it'd be a bi%$h to read. The 140 standard is tight enough.
