My 5k Rev limit - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

So i still have the "5k" rev limit after checking the 4th and 5th gear sensors, swapping out my MAF and my ECU (to get rid of CEl for auto tranny). Now after watching some zenki S14 vids on youtube i noticed that they have different gauge clusters than i do..... Now going by the gauge clusters ive seen then i am not hitting 5k im actually hitting the 6.5k to 7k rev limit.
What do you guys think?

You can also rent/buy/borrow a dwell meter and see if it sweeps the same as the tach when you rev the car. If you rev the car to 3k and the dwell meter goes to 4k...
