Some S14 Silvias had such a panel.

For what you'd pay for the gauges and wiring harness, why not use nicer aftermarket gauges?

Edit: some notes:
This panel will directly fit an S14, not so an S13.
It's a DIN sized panel that fits under the stereo.  The A/C controls in Japan are the same (unless the car was ordered with digital climate control).

oops, but yea, not the cluster where the speedo and rpm gauges, but actually part of the console

charley240sx · 12-04-2002, 10:37 AM

yea i know what you mean, but i dont want to have to destroy or drill holes, etc, why not go with the factory replacements?

i also found out that the gauges were angled to the driver. thats tight

but where can i see and get them at?

charley240sx · 12-04-2002, 10:39 AM

They're only angled towards the driver in a RHD car...

You wouldn't have to destroy anything...  You can buy single DIN gauge panels ready made to fit three small gauges or one gauge and two electronic bits (like a turbo timer, boost controller, etc.)
