hi guys
thinking about buying a speedo converter for my st205 just wondering have many of you done this and are there many problems??

also could you recomend one and where to source it
thanks in advance guys

I think HKS do one but don't quote me on that?

My can was converted by the importer for me so I don't know what he used, but it has always been pretty good and pretty accurate (certainly no worse than the other 'uk' cars I have owned that read 70 when you are really only doing 65!)

Perhaps one of the 'geeks' on here can help!
Guys?!

Some people are like a Slinky .. Not really good for anything, but they make you smile when you shove them down the stairs!

I don't know of any significant problems

There's a doc on t'interweb somewhere that shows the 3 connections required on the back of the speedo cluster

Are you looking to convert the speedo reading or remove the speed limiter or both?

loads on ebay, and should only take about 30 mins to fit

looking to do both do many units do this?
il have a look on e bay and see what i can find.
any ideas where i could find that doc??

thanks for all the help guys

I'm currently looking at the back of a spare cluster fitted with a convertor.
In the middle of the cluster are four cross-head screws - each has a marking by the side of it.
Top Left = SI
Bottom Left = R
Top Right = Y
Bottom Right = E

The way this convertor is wired is as follows:
Blue wire from convertor to top left cross-head screw (SI);
Red wire from convertor to bottom left cross-head screw (R);
Green wire from convertor to bottom right cross-head screw (E).

The convertor has a Grey wire that appears not to be used.

The convertor has a Yellow wire that, I assume, connects to the Speed Sensor wire from the ECU.
