Subjec Re: Upgrade speedometer, odometer
t: to modern KM's with trip meter.
180B SSS speedo/tripmeter almost fits inside the standard 510/1600 dash
cluster. It's dimensions are too deep to screw the 510 circuit board back
on fully but the 180BSSS tacho will fit in with a bit of cutting. I bought
one that Mal had bodged up. Initially the trip meter wouldn't reset, but I
found that it was because it was touching the inside of the 510 cluster
housing. With a bit of cutting the 180B SSS trip meter should work, but
there is a bit of mucking around involved. By the way Mal, when are you
going to send the replacement 180BSSS clear instument lenses that are
cracked? Send them to Rick White with the T-shirt etc. that you promised.
The saga continues.....

hmmmm, i would pay more than $200 for a running magna with
electronic dash,,,, with smokey engine and rattle when it starts
up...( or do they come from factory like that ????????).
if you get a wreck like that , at least you would have all the
proper sender units for gauges.......
in THEORY i dont think that it would be too hard, follow the wires
that come from the oil press gauge, and follow it back to where it
connects up to sender unit, etc......i reckon the main problem would
be the speedo drive....
i think that jaycar do a digital speedo kit for about 70 dollars or
so......
check jaycar,altronics and dick smiths for the kit

Mark, Sounds sweet. I was even thinking about centrally mounting
one, like in a mini :)
but i am dumb when it comes to electronics so dunno if its
achievable ???????? or cost effective?

Hey list,
Does anyone know if there is a straight forward upgrade to
convert my datsun 1600 to a more modern speedometer ?
ideally i would like speedo & odometer in kilometers with a
trip meter as well, digital would be nice, but not crucial.
I have thought about installing a bicycle computer as I have
seen other cars with them, but wouldnt mind just doing a
proper conversion & being done with it.
Any suggestions ? - Thanks Jeff
