MK1 LET Clocks

[Nova_Tek]

Morning all, I'm asking those who have got a LET in their MK1 Nova.

What dials are you using? Standard Nova dials or something else?

Feel free to post pics if you have anything different :thumb:

[CoolTiger]

Why would you use anything else? Most people problery have mk2 dashs though, after all they are the best.

[Nova_Tek]

That's what Im saying, most LET's AFAIK are MK2's so they have the chance to fit Cav/Cally dials. Where as MK1's don't so was wondering if anyone had anything different. I know it's a long shot but thought I'd ask yo!

Just wanna have 8k on the dials damn it lol

Digi dash?

Can be made to fit a mk1.

[Nova_Tek]

Na, not a digi dash fan tbh like precision movement of mechanical dials lol

[vaughanmc]

GTE/SR Nova dash at a guess then - Impress people when it goes off the clock at 120 lol

[Nova_Tek]

Already got the 6 Dial MK1 clocks man which I love

Just a shame it dont go up to 8k on the rev counter (Might draw one in lol)

Oh and how accurate will they be on a F28? As accurate as now or worse?

[AlexW]

Preety much the same as anything bud, also wheel/tyre size make a differance

[Nova_Tek]

Well thay are surprisingly accurate since fitting the 195/45 15's for obvious reasons, they're within 2mph of my GPS (show 2mph fast) .

As long the F28 doesn't throw it way off again. Like I said though such a shame they don't show the 8k mark.

Any ideas what the LET limiter is set to as standard? May need to alter the red line start point on them :thumb:

[mayhem]

on the german ebay there's a shop who sells them up to 9000rpm and 300km/h

german rules state that after an engine conversion the dials need to read the topspeed lol

[discoinferno]

the f28 will need to be fitted with a f20 speedo drive other wise the figures will be way out

i use vx220 dials in my nova :) mrk 1

Standard LET limiter is at about 6800rpm.

I looked in to fitting cally/cav clocks... Funk that! Way to much hacking to do plus you use the oil pressure gauge..

[Nova_Tek]

Yeah I use all the guages. Well seeing as the LET rev limit is 6800 then I can alter the red line to that point. Forget hacking the dash if it goes wrong I'm screwed.

Nova clocks will show the redline...

[Nova_Tek]

^ Yes they will but the red line starts early on my clocks about 6600. So reduceing the red line a couple hundred rpms should looks fine :thumb:

Felt tip it as required lol

[Nova_Tek]

lol How'd you guess?
