Reading the instructions for the Rick's Yellow Box, it looks like it would do what I'm talking about.
I think that a lot of us would pay $90 to have a correctly calibrated speedometer.

Re: JDM KMH to MPH changeover converter
instead of coming up with all sorts of equations for this conversion, why dont you guys just memorize the speed limits in km. speed limits are usually around the same across north america.

i think a lot of people in these forums relate to their speedometer for not obeying speed laws but for performance purposes at the track, such as for enter and exit speeds and trapping.

Re: JDM KMH to MPH changeover converter
All you have to do is remember is the kph for your local speed limits are like around my area its mostly 35mph 45mph and 55mph. Now remember what those are in kph and for every 16 kph its 10 mph.
It took me about a month to be able to just glance at my gauge and know how fast I'm going.

You're ****ed anyway if you're going 180kmh. Thats 108mph

i just used small dots on the cluster film for 25, 35, 45, 55, 65 mph., after awhile you get use to it. those 5 numbers are really the only big ones you need to know
