02J Gearbox speed sensor & Mk1 New spec cluster

Post by Boost »

Hi Guys

I installed the 02J gearbox from the G4 Gti into my Caddy for the Turbo build. So while I'm busy with the wiring I thought about the calibration or ratio of this speed sensor. Are the speed sensors for 02J vs FFZ identical? In other words, will the speedo reflect the correct reading?

Did you check the size and gear tooth count on both? If gear tooth count match, they should be giving the same speed.

Some info from the forum for you.

Just for info and reference, red gear with 15 teeth is used on my Caddy with Velocity dash and 020 gearbox.

020 speedometer cable gears:
020 3.9= 171 957 821 A (WHITE)
020 3.6= 171 957 821 B (RED)
020 4.2= 171 957 821 C (Green)
