gauge overlays

[lipz]

hey everyone, ive ordered these gauge overlays from addw1, and ive just realised they only show up to 160mph, me having a gt pack 350 my gauges go to 180, obviously this would mess with my real speed vs whats showing, is there anything i can do to change how my speed is showed to make it correct? like changing to base model wheel speed sensors? or would changing to a base model 160mph gauge cluster work?

 

Thanks in advance!

Best plan is to get the proper overlays.

they only make them to the 160mph spec mate,

Where do you plan on attempting to reach over 160 mph?

Do you know where one could procure such a thing? 😊

i dont...

however if u actually look you see 160 is where 180 would be, therefore along with that all the other speeds are off correlating with the 160, showing 60 going 70 showing 80 going 95 etc

The wheel speed sensors transmits a variable analogue voltage to the ABS module, where they will be transformed and from there sent to the cluster as a CAN speed message.  So in theory you could change the voltage range by changing the wheel speed sensors to ones with a different range, or by fitting resistors in to the harness.  But will be a lot of trial and error buggeration I doubt on my best day I'd have the patience for.  You'll need to fix all 4 otherwise the ABS module will get confused and think the front wheels are going faster/slower than the rears and pull on the TC, then probably get really confused and go into a limp mode or even sorry you're not going anywhere I'm not playing mode.

 

All things considered I'd look again for the right gauge overlay, or if I can't find one look for a company who could print me one.
