Kph To Mph Conversion

[aristo_dino]

hi all i tried to search but as 3 letter words can't be searched for found it bit hard lol

i wanna convert my aristo dials to the gs300 ones so that when i delimit the car i can do more than the 180kph without risking damage to the dials,

has anyone done this?

is it just a case of finding the dials an the drive from the gearbox an swapping them in or is it more involved??????

No need to change dials.

Just get a KPH-MPH converter so your speedo reads in MPH.

What are you going to use to delimit the car??

How could you forget the little MPH sticker to cover the KPH on the facia ;)

Man,,, i hope the traffic enforcers don't catch you doing that speed. i could loose my license for 6 months to a year if i get caught driving at the speed here in New Zealand..

cool any ideas where i can get a kph-mph converter, i was going to speak to pete at thour for the delimitor. unless u fine people can surjest anywhere else?

I believe Thor have stopped selling their delimiters and converters. Besides the delimiter doesn't work properly on the MK1 Aristo (v model). May work on the other 2 in the range (Q and Zi-Four but hasn't been tested to my knowledge. For the TT you need the HKS T6 and if it's the MK2 you need the HKS Type 2.

For kmh/mph converter, an eBay one should suffice.

what about on a n/a lol an i can't find a convertor on eBay am i missing it?

[Miss-informer]

These should do the job http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll...p=33&fsoo=2 might want to ask the sellers advice first though, but they're all pretty much the same.

i thought it would be a mechanical system as aposed to digital i have analouge dials after all. still very confused?

[Miss-informer]

Yes you have mechanical dials, i.e dials and needles not a digital read out, but every thing behind the speedo head is digital, no speedo/rev cable in sight, just lots of wires, I'll see if I can post a pic.
