Rev counter

Post by IanMills »

Do any of you have recommendations for a good after market rev counter that works with a Subaru conversion. I have the modified front harness from RJES. To be honest I am confused by the different varieties, I am lead to believe that an original,T25 dash with factory option rev counter is no good is that correct?
Thanks for any help or advice.
Have a nice day !

I got a VDO one for mine, matches the original clocks quite nicely
Can't remember for the life of me, where I got it, I think it may have been Merlin Motorsport

You can get the power for it from the light wiring behind the dash - think I used a branch off the lighting for the heater control
And just a single pulse wire from the engine bay
