Your starter for ten; I've just got a WRX for myself and I want to fit a 112 Mph speedo face. Im not interested in removing the 180 Kph speed restriction; also a 180 Mph speedo ( which is what you get with a reduction gear ) is very difficult to read. As the speed limiter is part of the original spec., can I fit a 112 Mph speedo face? My contention being that 112 Mph / 180 Kph IS the top speed of the vehicle without modification...

I have a copy from building 2 cars (see my website, link in my details). If you ask a specific question I can post chapter and verse. But, it's only 25 quid so why not buy a copy? There's a link on my site to the appropriate DETR webpage.
