It works! Yes, it’s accurate. The needle also moves a lot slower on acceleration, you notice it right away!
Install time for me, with no breaks, was about 1.5 hours. I did it completely alone, too (thanks, family & friends lol). This is including switching the speedos, swapping an aluminum bezel in and switching to hybrid bulbs. The cluster and speedometer look excellent and i’ll have pics soon.
The order to have your other 3 clusters sent to me will be put out ASAP:
– brocoli
– average player
– dip
Please have your $180 cash ready, I will collect it when I bring the clusters to you. I imagine this’ll be happening sometime around June 10-20/2005, pending their arrival times and our schedules.
My work in progress…the 240km/h speedometer removed and ready. They use/need an extra screw compared with ours. It appears that this fifth screw controls the recognition of a 240km/h speedometer being present as opposed to the 180. I used all 5, mine only had 4. The speedometer works and is accurate.
Installed; with the carefully-masked-and-painted aluminum bezel and speedo:
Please note: this is with only the speedometer swapped. No pics with the hybrid blue lighting yet. Rest assured, the blue hybrid (IMO) is sick at night, not cheezy at all.
I have requested the other clusters be sent out to me.
One last thing guys. Now that we’ve verified the seller and the functionality of the speedometers, I want to get an interest check to report back to him in case he gets more.
If you are interested in a 240km/h speedometer down the road ($180 for the entire cluster w/ speedo) and you missed this small group buy, please enter your name below (or remove it) for an interest check (no commitment at all):
There will be a delay getting these sent out as per an email from the supplier. It looks like they should be SENT this or next week. That changes the expected in-your-hands date to likely June 15-30th or so now. Not too big of a change…
Hi,
my probs start to clear up, and I’ll have a total of 4 speedos ready to be shipped to dfj by next week.
So get in touch with him, I will be looking for some more supply for you soon.
Just to give you a quick update.
It’s good to hear that the speedos work and everything went smooth.
Cheers, Roman

Okay, great. Group buy is full.
Dr. Strangelove, send me the email (with the total etc) and we’ll get these shipped out to me very shortly!
Mail sent.
As soon as I have all 4 speedos here and boxed for shipment to you we can do the money transfer.
I expect that to be some time next week.
Will keep you updated about the status.
As long as your current 89-94 cluster works, swapping the speedometer will work as well. In other words, yeah you’re fine (unless you plan on swapping in an S14 cluster etc…).
