speedometer vtec color change?
i was looking at vvti videos on youtube and i ran into this. yes, its a corolla
but thats besides the point. i really love the color change when it hits vvti. has anyone thought about or done this to our cars? it think its pretty cool. it'd would be a good mod to do and i'd do it to my car if someone figured it out.

buy a lexus, and you get two color rings that come up under the tack and speedo. the first rings are orange which can be set at any mph or rpm then they will stay on after those parameters are hit. the orange ring turns to a red ring when you hit 100mph and the red ring on the tack comes on right before the rev limiter.
amyways it's pretty neet and props to the guy that made it.

Neat. Could be kind of hard to do. You would need to solder in LCDs that are multi-color (all in the same unit). As distortedolskool said, there's a wire from the vtec solenoid that you can use to check when its on..

I've contacted Sean who is the owner of that site ledmod.com
He's willing to work on it. I don't mind sending a spare gauge cluster, but he wants an electrical diagram for the gauge. ANyone know where I can find it?
And I just want to see how many people will be interested in something like this? I'm trying to ask him to make a kit. Not just a custom one for me. Thanks.

yeah if the guy at ledmod comes back with something attractive I and not really $$$$$$$$$ I would get one. I really like some of the stuff he has done on his site, they look much better than some of the led gauge mods people on here have done themselves.
