Speedometer that goes over 85?

not that I have noticed. My huge tires through it off quite a bit though. 205/50-15.

Been clocked going 114 in my festiva. Somehow I got off on the ticket..cop didn't show

I'm afraid to go over 85...

An accident would equal certain death at that speed. Or the thing might shake to pieces first.

You need to ride with me in Zippy sometime Tim... 85 is when you know you can afford the big ticket, above that well.. now your just showin off... :twisted:

Doesn't it throw off the calibration when you do that?

Sorry I was reading back through old posts looking for some ideas and came accross this . . .

Yes it will mess up the spedo mine now "shakes" when I go between 60 and 85 more so at 65 though for some reason . . .

well, had never even seen this thread before probably because it is so old... but back to the orginal question, yes, its possible to modify a factory festiva cluster to goto 140MPH... just get the speedo and face from a 91-94 protege... or you can print up your own face here... bolts right into orange festy clusters, requires a littly notching of the back plastic on the white ones.

that looks sharp you should make some matching guage inserts

Here is a Kia Pride speedo from the UK. They are a nice upgrade!!
