    converting mph to km/h??

    i want to get an si-t amber cluster but the scale is way different than ours. so i want to know what would i need to make my car read in km/h that matches th si-t amber cluster?

    1991 Lx coupe........traded now I have nothing lol

      There is nothing you can do unless you memorize this.

      km/h = mph
      1.0 = 0.621
      5.0 = 3.107
      10.0 = 6.214
      20.0 = 12.427
      30.0 = 18.641
      40.0 = 24.855
      50.0 = 31.069
      60.0 = 37.282
      70.0 = 43.496
      80.0 = 49.710
      90.0 = 55.923
      100.0 = 62.137
      110.0 = 68.351
      120.0 = 74.565
      130.0 = 80.778
      140.0 = 86.992
      150.0 = 93.206
      160.0 = 99.419
      170.0 = 105.633
      180.0 = 111.847
      190.0 = 118.061
      200.0 = 124.274

        no, you guys dont understand. i know i'll have to learn it, but im saying that the actual jdm amber gauge is scaled differently, so the needle is going to be off? so what i need a jdm speed sensor instead?

            You will not need a JDM speed sensor. Your rate of speed does NOT change. All you will have to do is learn to convert. That is it.

              This was covered once before, but I forget what the outcome was and who did it.
              I would say the speed sensors are different. Anyone got a mph cluster pic they can post up to compare to the scaling on mine:

              115-120 kph (71.4 - 74.5mph) is straight up and down, and 220 kph (136mph) is the last reading

              A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

              If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

                My CB9 cluster has both km/h and mph scales.

                    What are the last readings in kph and mph.
                    Have you got the 180 or 220 kph speedo?

                        Mine goes to 145 which is around 230kph not to sure exact though. Striaght up is around 72. http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...=1#post1691734
                        My cluster pic is in there.
                        edit: 140 not 145, not sure what i was thinking.

                            Referring to that pic I would say its the same scale as mine.

                            Hey mines JDM too - There were 2 versions remember, the 180k ones and the 220k ones . . .

                            Those gauges are aftermarket though, did the oem cluster go to 140?

                              I have no idea, I didn't install them.
