   Im in the middle of putting a vts engine in my vtr. The speedo on my car only goes upto 120mph. Its a phase 2 saxo, single plug ecu type. What i want to do is put some VTS clocks in my car. But i want to know if they will go straight in to my car? Or does the the interior loom need to be changed?

   Are you on about just the clocks or the whole unit with the gauges and everything? The vts has oil temp gauge as standard. Very useful to have.

   Best bet is to get a full vts interior loom.
   
   I can't see why you'd want to go over 120mph?
   
   In all reality, IMO it's more hassel than it's worth - could fit an aftermarket oil temp gauge? Would be less hassle.

   Sorry, must have mis-read the part about 120mph.
   
   Saxos rev gauges all go upto the same amount iirc.
   If they don't then your best best is to get a Vts interior loom to fit the Vts gauge unit.
   
   IMO I'd just get an after Market gauge for whatever function you want, as I don't think the Vts dials will be plug and play. I've never tried so can't say for sure.
