Speedometer question...

I'm looking at an '89 Camry tach cluster on ebay, and the speedo goes up 130 mph. I'm also looking at doing a white face install at the same time I get the tach cluster, but the white face gauge speedo reads up to 150 mph. Are there OEM clusters that go up to 150?
Looks like whoever is making these white face gauges screwed up?

V6 have a 150 mph speedo.

I4 is 130 mph.



Is this what your looking at?

Ok, I guess that makes sense.... didn't dawn on me that the V6 would be different.

Yeah, the one I looked at on ebay is very much like that, but must be pretty junky because it's only like $6.00

Thanks for that link, I'll have to check with them to see if I can get a 130 mph version.

You can mix 'n match two sets to get the parts you need for a 4-cylinder with tach. The only issue you run into is the indicated redline on the tach will be 6700 instead of 6000 or 6200 like the 3s-fe actually is...

(I love revving past the 'redline' on my tach now up to 7400 with the 3s-gte - great fun!)

^ Use everything from this set, except for the speedo.

It sucks that they don't have a set with a 130 mph speed and tach.




They also have normal glow gauges, but it doesn't have a tach.

Yeah, whoever is producing those gauge faces really missed the boat with regards to the sets they produce for the Camry.

Right!!!....there are many more 4 cyl. camrys then V6 ones
My camry previously had the non-tach guage cluster, so I went to the junkyard and they had a tach cluster from an '87 3sfe which they sold to me for $50. The only thing is that the odometer reads 5K more miles then it previously did on the old cluster......no big deal really
