guages in km/h???

do gauges in km/h exist for the 02-03 maxima? if so, does anyone know where i could get them? possibly overlays are out there, not the entire cluster, whichever...
thanks in advance

May be a little OT here, but nice gauges! Did you do any thing different from stock? Looks like maybe new bulbs?

The only way I know to get them is to order from a Canadian dealership. And I think you have to get the whole cluster. Just not worth it.

Wow it's the new VQ50DE or something! It does 260!!!!!!!



I've had people look into my car and see that the guage reads 160 and they're like WOW it's fast. Now if they didn't notice it was KPH then they'll be @ 260

How about a Twinturbo VQ35DE?with 400+HP, I think it will reach 300kph.

I doubt it, it will just reach 159mph or 260kph faster than stock...

to the OP, are you looking for something that is not stock? I know a place that will do it, but you will need to send them a stock cluster. they will copy it and make anything custom for you in mph or kph. Maybe even both. 189 bucks to be the guinea pig as they don't normally do an 03 maxima.

Yeah, I live in Canada, so KPH is primary here. Looks cooler anyways. I remember posting a 0-60 video with my old car on a forum, and it was slow as hell, but a few people were impressed to see it reach 100 mph so quickly compared to theirs... Then someone pointed out it was kph
