  • kmh dominant tach gauge?

    All the white faced tachs I keep seeing are all mph. Was any ever made kmh Dominant?

    You must be talking about the orange Festiva GTX tach! No miles.

      Like this one. But with the kmh on the outside and miles on the inside?

        Yes, a few Kia Pride tach clusters are dual read, KMPH Primary

          Beautiful, I'm assuming plug and play just like the other clusters? Also, your Trans config. Doesn't matter correct? (ie. Cluster from auto car going into manual and vise versa)

            Trans doesn't matter, but almost any cluster not from the US will need to have the circuit board swapped, or pins rearranged, depending on which is easiest for you.

              Thanks, since mine are Canadian would this mean I would have to repin the standard US clusters or are cad. And US models the same?

                US-CA clusters are pinned the same, so no switch needed there

                  89+ GTX went white. surprisingly, there are more than a dozen different clusters due to the worldwide sales of the festiva, pride, and 121. later ones even have a digital odometer. at the other end, here's a poverty spec cluster. i think these were in the kia pride 'pop" trim.

                        Didn't notice that at first! Would the 75100rpm redline be for the the twin cam 1.3l in the GTX and GTA Festivas?

                          That would be my assumption, perhaps Mike Schmitt knows?

                            yup. that is the cluster in the gtX. sorry officer, i didn't know i was speeding. i forget the formula to convert KPH to MPH.
