Here is a pic of what DaveB's brushed rings look like in a 99 cluster. I like em.

That, and my pro passed 66,666 miles on I40 just inside Oklahoma.

This thing won't show the image in the post for some reason, yet it shows my sig pic.... strange.

looks pretty nice man
i wish i had them
they look sweet
and happy 66,666 miles to your car
i was wondering where you trying to pass a car
or something because you had about 3.3K rpm
going 65mph

my car(1.6l) would touch 3.0k at 70mph

i know your engine is 1.8l
why is that
thanks

Good question, I dunno. Possible, but not likely, is that the 1.8 has different gear ratios? (I really don't know)

I was too busy taking the picture to pass anyone. I was actually cruising at 82mph for the most part, slowed down for safety during the pic.

Actually, Infinity_X pointed out that the gauge shows 66mph

Check yours out at 5th gear at 3k (take a pic if you can), and I'll take another pic of mine in 5th gear at 3k, and we'll see what happens.

cool, once i do that, i'll post it up asap
Thanks!

I checked today, and in 5th, at exactly 3k rpm, it's exactly 60mph, didn't take a pic, just tested on the drive in.

here it is at night, a little dark, doesn't do it justice

sorry man for the delay
because of the hurricane, the internet in our rooms
are down for a week now
and I was busy with school
but, last night, i had to go out on the highway
and found out :

3K @ 68MPH


eight MPH difference between the engines.....hmmppphhhh

rpm to wheel speed has nothing to do with the engine. The engine output is 3k, it is the gearing and other stuff inbetween the wheels and the output that determines the speed. This is interesting, however. Thanks.
