Hi Guys, Im trying to track down my old mk2 escort, the reg is GYA 226T and i believe its still white. It was a 4 door but converted to a 2 door.would love to know if its still about.
-
can i just clear up. you would only need this sort of speed sensor bracket. if in your mk1 or mk2 escorts you have fitted may be a zetec and A DIFFERENT GEARBOX, SUCH AS MK5 OR RX8 MAZDA that req a speed sensor to trigger the speedo on a aftermarket dash, such as, AIM SOLO HALTECH STACK RACE TECHNOLOGY DASH2 AEM ELECTRONICS. or similar req a electronic speed pickup. -
I'm running 2 MK2 Escorts with MK1 MX5 gearboxes, Thats easy as they have a mechanical speedo drive. But the late rMK3 box , that are used in most conversions use electronic pick up -
Its easy to convert a mechanical speedo drive to an electronic speedo , but not the other way round 😬 Its pretty common conversion, on older cars that have a mechanical speedo, but no one has got around the fix yet.

No bracket will help you with this. Escort Sport dash has a cable with rotating inners to the gearbox. Little plastic gear inside the box drives this cable. Maybe you could replace the Sport speedo with a similar looking dash from a Sierra which had an electronic speedo. -
r8 gearbox has not got this function as its speedo is controlled by the ecu in mazda. depending on your dash , might be able to connect speed sensor that picks up a signal by using the bolts holding front disc to hub, to calculate the speed, this is where that bracket will help. cheers

What I need is a way to run a MX5 / R8 Gearbox that has an electronic speedo sensor in the box, to run with my analogue Escort Sport dash 🤪 Any one got ant ideas ?
