So I put my ebay 'se-r' glow gauges in. Purty cool gauges since they say se-r and I like the white background, but the glowing color part is kinda gay. Owell.

Anyway...when I put them in I somehow broke my RPM gauge needle. Now I don't know when to shift when I'm racing. I can shift daily driving just fine cuz I just go by sound and feel on that one. I want to go to the track but I don't know when I should shift ... aka 7100 RPM redline jerk crap. Don't wanna hit that.

So if anyone can help. I just need to know about what 6800RPM-7100RPM = in MPH for each gear up to 3rd...cuz 4th you can top out the governor anyway.

Plus I have 17's...so I need someone with 17's to do it since the MPH are a bit off!

Thanks

is the knob threaded or does it have set screws....and is the SS used ?

 

[mYseRgOesvrOOm]

the knob has this lil black thing inside of it. he came with a bunch. you screw it into the knob then it slips over the shifter...no need for screwing it on...universal type i guess.

and no the ss has never been used.

It does not matter if you have 17's. What matters is the heighth of the tires you have.

 

[mYseRgOesvrOOm]

Well I since I don't have a working tach, I don't know when to shift before redline. So, I'm most likely shifting to early. I want to go to the track next week but I most likely won't have a tach in time. So, whatever is the speed is at about 6800-7100 (redline, time to shift) thats what I need to know. So I can watch that instead of the broken tach that just sits there...

Well my rims are about 1/2 taller than stockers on 205/55's or 50's...or whatever. I don't remember. My speedo is off compared to other people's so I just thought that might be it. My friend had 17's and his speedo ended up being like 5mph or something. I just figured it was the same...

If you tell us the size of your tire, IE 215/40/17, then we could put it in a wheel error convertor and figre out what the exact error is versus what mine is with 205/50/15, etc.

205/40/17...

 

[Storm88000]

I believe 60mph in 5th gear is about 3500rpms maybe? Not sure I could be way off.

 

[mYseRgOesvrOOm]

Well I need redline limits! I can drive the car just fine, I just need the redline speeds so I can shift without a tach...anyone??

I've got 17s wrapped with Nitto 205/40ZR17s, but they're not on the car right now, i'm running my studded tires on the stock 14s...Once all the snow and **** melts in the summer I'll be able to tell you though, lol...
