Hi,

If you buy aftermarket dial faces like the re:amemiya or mazdaspeed ones that go upto 300km/h, how do you recalibrate the speedo needle so that it\'s in the right place? Is it possible.

I\'m no expert on this fella, but if your buying a replacement Amemiya or Mazdaspeed unit then you get exactly that....a full replacement (this includes the digital millage reading etc as well a the gauge).  

Thats why they are so expensive.  

The dash cluster needs to be stripped and then the new gauge goes in the place of the old one.  Therefore its important if buying 2nd hand to make sure it all works and that the millage is fairly similar to your own.  If buying new there aint a problem.

You can buy cheaper stick on face covers, however they would have to read the same KPH as your current clocks, unless you want to fit an eBay (or similar) speed de-limiter and MPH convertor.
