why does the

speedo on the mx6 from japan say 180mph on it ?

you will have to host the picture on imageshack or something similar. i do not know where you are hosting from

without even seeing the picture, i'm going to make an educated guess that the speedo that you're looking at measures speed in km/h, not mph.

correct.

 

[91turbo666]

oh is that all he wanted

which mx6 tho? i would expect the speedo to be higher than 180 in kmh

 

[MX-six]

The speedo would be in the 200's if it were in kmh not the 100's.

240 i think, i can't remember for some reason, i will have to look at my car lol

 

[91turbo666]

mine goes to like 240

pretty much most cars go up to at least 220 or so. looks neat and tidy

 

[MX6_VTECH]

yeah man they don't use mph like they do in the states, they use km/h.

 

[rasheedn]

this is what u mean
my car was 180 KM/h, ppl that imported it changed it to miles! so now its 180 MPH!!

i like the taped on mph man! that's crazy looking how they changed it to mph, nice job on answering a question that none of us could fully understand!

 

[Goatcrapp]

omfg.

lol
.

 

[MX6_VTECH]

man, that's great

 

[rasheedn]

hahah
1st i couldnt beleive that its actually working 4 mph not kmh!! i could see the mph sticker hehe but it does work1! and its removed my limiter too!!! i really wanna know how they did it!!!
but its cool to have a speedo that reads 180 MPH haha

perhaps, but in many ways its like the guys who have stock engines with a perfectly fine working tacho, then they go put a 10k rpm tacho, when their engine would explode well before then

i agree, i honestly don't see the point of huge tachs when your car has a tach built SPECIFICALLY for YOUR CAR. they always say they want a shift light, but you can easily get just a light and hook it to the stocker!

 

[rasheedn]

yes, if i actually put it! this is how i got my car! they just change it from reading kmh to miles without changing the actual tacho!

...mmm i guess i'll be the one to say it first. the reason why SOME of the people that buy different tachs is because the stock one isn't accurate at all. it can actually be off by 600 rpms when you get above 5k

yeh i guess in a lot of cars that is fair, im just pointing out the obviously riced examples
