Default Converting Jap Imports

How much is it to have clocks converted from KMH to MPH and remove the restrictor.

It should be done on the SVA, though not the restrictor, that has to be done seperately

If you fit an electronic or manual delimiter you don't need clocks as well, the delimiter converts to MPH using the KMH clock.

I take it from that comment you've never been through an SVA test . They even check speed ratios to make sure you're running the same gearbox as used for the model report
