The 300km/h unit is the TRD Japan item (Aka for race use only), they have a part number for it but it's discontinued.
All JDM cars have a 180km/h speed limiter built into the ECU (As by Japanese law) hence theres no point in having anything over 180. In the UK the posted speed limits are in Miles per hour, When UK people import JDM cars, they use a speed converter (Clicks divided by 1.6) and place a sticker reading "MPH" over the original dial which says km/h. (This also has the effect of raising the speed limiter from 180km/h to 180mph.) The export Celica model (destined for markets outside of Japan where there is no 180km/h law) reads 240km/h on the speedo. -------------------- Mike W
