Gauge Upgrade? More MPH? JDM?

Unfortunately we are limited to a stock cluster that only goes to 120mph... what have you guys done to get around this? Is there some type of replacement cluster available? Overlay + Recalibrating?

Another idea... I've seen a few S15 clusters on ebay, etc and they go to 180 (but that is KPH). Is there a way to get the JDM cluster to be calibrated to MPH isntead of KPH so that you can effectively have a cluster that goes to 180 MPH...?

Any ideas or is there some type of common upgrade I'm not aware of?

Thanks,
Adam

Check in the back of turbo magazine or any of those mags. There is a company that advertises 180mph gauges.

SAWEEEEET... that is exactly what I was looking for! One quick question however... that says it is for the S13. Will it work in the S14 as well?

Thanks again,
Adam

180kph=112mph.
And changing the gauge will really affect the speed limit?
