you need a convertor.
 
they can be had from ebay but i think some of the vendors on here sell them as well.

Jusy buy one of those ebay converters mate, easy to fit, just splice it in to the relavant wires behind the clocks. It will come with full instructions, just make sure you tell them what car it\'s going on!

it will convert it to mph, all you have to do if you want is cover the k on the speedo
 
it says it all on the ebay listing

Buy an apexi pfc to get your car tuned for english fuel & it removes the speed limiter

Then learn the KM speeds ;)

I just implant this in my brain.
 
50 = 30
62 = 40
80 = 50
100 = 60
112 = 70
