180km/h is pretty much over the speed limits

after you cut the designated wire, you might want to put in a north american cluster on it so you can see your speed when you're over 180, they're supposed to fit directly and do the speed conversion automatically

Can´t find it right now but i´ll keep looking! The cluster he has is actually pretty neet if he wants MPH instead of KPH. I think it could be rewired to read MPH on the same gauge. It´s worse for me who want it in KPH and it only reaches to 180... regarding this theres is a bolt on thingie from Greddy that works. https://www.rhdjapan.com/home/produc...roduct_id=3176
If you run out of ptience waiting for that wire info I can´t find...

Having an FD that would only go 112 would be like having a HOT girlfriend and only getting to kiss her....

Cut this:

Red/Green


Remember to rewire it if you install a Power FC or you will not have the digital speedo.

Thats why I told him to change for an american cluster, so that he can read his speed up to 180 mph..
