Ok this may sound like I'm stupid but I really wanna know where I can get High speed and upgraded tach gauge faces for my 240 that will comply with a RB swap...since the skyline series gauge clusters don't look as nice and require modification to make them look clean...and the fact they're in kph.

Save the money on the tach gauge. Reason being....no cluster from teh KA will read properly. 4cyl vs 6cyl and what not. My OEM tach reads twice as high. Mckinney is suppossedly workign on aconverter to make the stock tach work, but at a price of 100+ bucks it really isnt worth it, when you can get a decent tach off ebay for much less and can set it to 6cyl. That is what I did. Nothing obnoxious. It is liek 3 5/8 in and I mounted it on the steering column in direct line with the OEM tach so it covers it.

You can always just change to autometer...

I think thats a good option... you can have them all look the same..

BTW which RB you going with?
