[N/A-PWR]

Hello,

 

Needed a Thread related to LC / LJ Instrument Decals,

 

as I have searched endlessly,

 

which nothing comes close to the look of how they were having 8,000rpm or more.

 

 

So this is what I need to do to my Tachometer Decal:-

next is the 150mph Speedo, done with the same old skool look.

 

 

 

Anybody else have their ideas to show?

Though I would do a 10,000rpm Tacho Decal for Gene:-

Maybe Les from Rares Spares could make them for us, as they will get a lot of attention.

See if you can get the speedo head recalibrated to suit may be easier than messing about with speedo drive gears.

Wow Victor, a Man of your Word,

 

I will have to do a bit of digging around to put an email together,

 

thank's for going out of your way. regards Dave I

Question 1 Can you guys turn the gtr 7k tacho into a 10k one? Yes and will remake backing plate to to look the same as the old skool one.

Question 2 What about the speedo same deal, will make what you want and backing plate old skool.

What they need is the old instruments wheel size. Diff gears.

Gave you a Like Button for that too.

would you mind if I did your speedo decal for my RAT Mate?

[N/A-PWR]

Just need a 0.6:1 ratio reduction box to drive her, so that the speedo reads right.

 

Don't mind to look at the speed at the left most of the time. 

 

 

or I wonder if we can change the gearbox gears to suit the Decal using a 2.78:1 diff ratio? hmm, will look.

 

 

looks like the closest is having:-

 

Gearbox driver gear = Red 7 tooth

 

Cable driven gear = Light Blue 25 tooth

 

where they combined will give 69.4kph at 100kph

Ah, 25 inch diameter tyres gets it spot on using the Red and Light Blue gears.

The advantage with the layout of this 10k tacho is it will actually be able to reach 10k if Gene's 202 will rev that high.

Thought I better put the 10,000rpm x 280kph dash picture back up,
