1992 mk2 rev2 JMD speedo

Post by SteveandDebra1 »

Hi all. I own a MR2 Jap import 1992 mk2 rev2 turbo. my problem is the speedometer only goes to 120 mph. As the car has been much tuned prior to my purchase it soon clocks out at the max speed,( on a track :D ). I also own a 1991 rev1 N/A mr2 that the speedo goes to 160 mph. Do you think the instrument cluster would swop. i know the turbo boost indicator will not work,but already have an after market guage fitted so the original gauge doesn't work anyway.
Regards Steve

Both should be cable driven as electronic didn’t come into 93.

I'm fairly sure the gen 2's had the cable into late production when gen3 design got implementated. This was on JDM so perhaps the UK version was different?

The 1992 gen 2 is definately not cable driven. Will see if the 1991 (gen 1 ) model is cable over the weekend (Ithink it is).
