i tried to fit turbo ones to ny uno 45 dunc but the dials looked too small not sure if i printed them off correctly though!!!

 

[The Negotiator]

What about the fact that Uno 45 speedos don't go up to 160 and are calibrated completely differently?!

i changed all the speeds to the sam eas on my uno but hte dials were too small, i was just bored and thought it might work!

yea dunc great idea m8 ill put UT dials in so i will be doing around 30mph but the needle will be pointing to around 80mph that would work. i get pulled over for doin 2mph in a 30 zone n the officer would say "hey son do u know wot speed u were doing" to which i wud reply "sorry officer i was doing 75mph in a 30zone" which would completly baffle him. great idea lad

gotta love the uno's

Can't you just take out your current dials, scan them and send them to him?



People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.

Actually the Turbo instruments should work fine, I'm 90% certain the calibration of the speedo (what it reads for the cable twisting at a given speed) is the same. You should see it on a little label on the back of the speedometer housing. Mine says "1 giro = 0.01 kilometri" or something like that. So you will have "1 giro = 0.00621 milo" or some such!

The fact that the needle will only get about a third of the way around the scale, well, that's another thing

And you have to find something to do with the boost gauge. It works with a little pipe, not sure what you can hook this to Hey I know, make up an adaptor to connect it to the radiator expansion tank cap! That apparently builds up to about 14psi = 1 bar on the gauge. Red = Radiator hot. Not sure how you keep the hot water out of the gauge though... :-D

I'm on the lookout for an Oil Temperature sender (should be pretty standard between various other FIAT/Lancia applications) and of course an oil pressure sender (electrically same as X1/9?) This is so we can get all those gauges working in an Uno 45 I'm building with a friend.

Cheers,
