Found this in a random search on Japanese auction site,really like it and the crazy red stripes from 100 -250kms.
 Can't read Japanese for s#it but think this is a part only for this country (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . Would be great for a high HP conversion or just bragging rights (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . |

Funny the red line is a 62 mph. Must have been flying in Japan in the 1970's, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

If you drive too fast in one direction, you'll fall off the edge and into the ocean. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Could be useful in Hawaii. Cool part. Would be even better if it were a silver dot! |

Driving cross country in a 67' Chrysler Newport Custom with my folks and my new learner's permit. Safe and prudent speed limit across Montana. Mom was asleep on the back bench. I was doing 100 for a long time and my Pop was ok with it. Mom woke up. No good.

If you're feeling creative, want to "roll your own" and modify your existing speedometer, a similar fascia (as well as a few other variants) can be ordered from Germany:

My daughter stays in Japan right now. Since she is bilingual Japanese and German, I thought about asking her to bid on this rare piece of 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
But - I checked my original Porsche parts manual: 914 641 504 30 is the "normal" europian version for the 1.8 and 2.0. The japanese version would be 914 641 507 00 I guess, this "Japanese" speedo had just the face plate replaced some time. Probably a car that was not designed for the japanese market in first place. Less desireable for the serious collector. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Obviously there was no "japanese" Version for the early 1.7 cars. Greets, Arno |
