New 911 gauges

Post by Alan @ CanfordClassics »

Hi,

I am just fitting up my new gauges in the 911 and thought a quick game of spot the difference may be in order.... there are four differences when compared to the original set....

Speedo reads to 180mph vesus 150mph of the original

Speedo is electronic as opposed to the original mechanical one

Rev counter reads to 9000rpm as opposed to 8000rpm

Rev counter contains a voltmeter which the original didn't

Hi Barry,

I thought most people would get three of the differences, it was the..

Speedo is electronic as opposed to the original mechanical one

...which I thought would be hard one to spot.

I have done this one before... but just for fun... guess the wheel sizes :lol:
