W5* Electronic speedo sensors

[matt dunn]

Is there a model of W5* gearbox that has an electronic speedo sensor?

What vehicle is it out of and does anyone have one for sale?

there is because i have one, the Z20 soarer uses it for digital dash, you can also use the sender out of the auto box in the manual

I needed a manual speedo drive for my altezza gearbox, and a W5* one fits.

Point being that while I was looking for one, I found out that the auto boxes from cressidas etc (same cars that have W5* boxes) have the same speedo drive. So if you could find one from an auto, it would more than likely fit too.
(I cant say for 100% sure, as I just ended up getting one from a W series box, but apparently others have used auto ones)

so, to clarify further, the speed sender/sensor whatever you want to call it from the A340E auto is interchangeable with the W5x manual.

you can get it from g/mz20 soarer, digital dash xa70 supras (i assume?), jzx90 and probably more, basically anything that uses those boxes and doesn't have cable driven speedo.

I've got one, and its the same as an auto one. If you want one, I can sell ya one.

My digi dash Ga70 was still a cable jobbie, so no go there.

A lot of Digi dash cars actually have cables that run all the way to a speed sensor inside the actual dash itself to run the digi display. seems like a weird way but is quite common, especially on hondas.

Will see what I can find as I want to run a speed signal into the LinkG3 on my new setup.
