One option would be to order it from a Toyota dealer in the UK or Japan for km/h. A US speedo gauge would be in mph...

ohhh. this could be tricky. it's just that the non-turbo ones are limited to 180km/h and the speedo only goes to 180, which means if i wanted to see how fast i went beyond 180km/h, i would need a new speedo. thanx for ur help though.

thnx heaps
for your website. i can never seem to find anything of the kind. anyway, a bit pricey, at 420 USD (500 AUS $), however, i know i can pick up second hand ones, from the wreckers, which work fine, just gotta get the cable and the new gauge. not to much money, and nothing wrong with them. however, the hard part - instaling it / calibrating it. do you know any websites or anything or any way how to install these, whilst keeping accuracy, remember old speedo was 180km/h limit, changed to 320km/h. any info greatly appreciated thnx :-)

Sorry to say I've never done the speedo conversion as you described. The TRD upgrade is plug-and-play.
