If you get the cluster from a CA71 Alto you don't need to hack anything up really. They fit in with little effort.

ive been offered $250 for the cluster. tacho works perfect and is only slightly off at 8000rpm when compared to the exact ecu reading, but no traditional tacho is perfect.

atm i cant say whether i want to sell it off or not. its a matter of the person that purchases my mightyboy, whether they want it already installed or removed and standard cluster installed and reduce the price accordingly.

i noticed on the alto dash i wired into the suzuki, they've got a inbuilt buzzer, not sure what it operates 2, but im assuming when your overboosting or hits speed cut.

i didnt wire it in... left that circuit disconnected :D

pretty much all jap imports have a speed warning of some sort
a mate had a soarer and it had a light on the dash that came on as soon as u went over 100 then after 110 a warning buzzer started going off
very annoying on the motor way....
u couldnt set the cruise over 100 either

I had my mighty boy off the dial and not far from the " H " in kp/h the other day on the fwy, inbetween the speed camera's mind you. I go under them just under 100. I'm loving my new F8b, man the boy likes to get up and move now. I never thought it would go so fast. :lol:
