    Supper nice Uri

    Hi Djones,

    Very NICE project
    The reason of a other rev meter is that you're rpm signal was to low for the stock meter???
    I had the same problem.
    But fixed it by a special relai.

        Rev. meter

        Hi Darren,

        When u use a ABY/AAN/ADU Ecu en engine, you don´t get the rev signal from the ingition coil but from the ECU.
        The signal from the ecu is not strong enough to feed the rev meter in a analoge dash.
        When the engine runs idle ther is no problem, but if you rev to 2000 rpm the needle drops down.
        The meter expects a signal 80v signal.
        Sorry for my poor english, but this is what i ment.

              Djones have you got more info on that dash,... do they do a rev counter that goes to 10000rpm??

              As I need to do something with the rev counter I may aswell match the speedo at the same time

                Jay,

                Its basically a coupe binnacle with the original rev counter and speedo removed, the clock just and i mean just fit in without destroying the binnacle.

                Not sure if they do one up to 10k. I got them both out of the Demon Tweeks Motor-sport catalogue.

                Can get you a better picture if it helps?

                  Do you have any pictures of the car with a loaf of bread on the dash?

                    I know... unbelievable.. but apparently its how you prove you own the car... its an Audi Quattro for heaven's sake not a Ferrari F40..

                    Like a sad git i have done it too.. i really hate being distrusted..

                    Ive not mentioned the GT40 or Cobra... i will have to buy a bread maker...

                    Not that impressed with PH.. funny lot.

                      You might have to explain this for everybody else, they'll think I've got barking mad

                      If you'd seen some of the s**t that people do post on PH you'd know why sometimes they are a little sceptical. I'm just glad you shut them up

                        Are we all siting comfortably...

                        On PH's you have to take a picture of your car with a bowl of custard or a loaf of bread on the bonnet.. then post the picture to prove you own the car..

                        Probably my own fault as i didn't want to tell them it was mine but felt obliged in the end, anyway i was so distrusted one chap wanted me to take a picture of a loaf of bread on the dash with the picture being taken through the windscreen. Suppose to ensure it is not a photo shopped picture..

                        Anyway he has shut up now..

                            It is an interesting place, I'll give you that. I used to go on there quite a lot and then got fed up with the very very cliquey nature of the place.

                              Did'nt T2Andy have a run in with that lot, think someone stole pictures of his car & claimed it was theirs.!
                              Then they went through the loaf of bread saga.
                              Turned out to be a complete geeky dreamer, i'm sure it was Andy it was posted here a little while before crimbo, he was well rumbled.....T**t.

                                I thought the T2Andy incident was on the Corrado owners club or something...
