[Mk2] [Turbo] 91 - US import - TRD 300 km/h gauge - What parts do I need?

Post by randomher0 »

First thing you're probably wondering is why on earth would I have my speedo showing kmh instead of mph.

The answear is I'am a new Norwegian owner (bougth the car on Aug. 14th). I joined this site because the MR2 community here in Norway is pretty small, hope you don't mind having me here. 8-[

As the tread-subject says what parts do i need to make a TRD 300 km/h gauge work? I have a 180 mph gauge with 280 kmh on the inner circle. Like this:

only going to 180/280. Oh and of course I have the stock boost meter in the middle.

Any guides on installing or places to get the parts would be much appreciated.

Tread Subject says "91 - US import" making it a rev 1 as far as i know. Strangely enough it boosts at 0,8-0,9 while stock boost pressure for the rev 1 is 0,6 as far as I know.

Let me warn you, I have very little mechanical experience but my "in-law" family loves to work on cars so they're working free aslong as I pay for the parts. :lol: So heavy mechanical discussion is a no-go for me until I lean from working with them on this mr2 :oldtongue:

I'm also looking into convering it 2 a rev 3(+) if I can find a low milage rear cut that doesn't cost a arm and a leg shipped to norway.
