how do I make a jdm s13 gauge cluster work - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

well u stated u have a sr20det, u need to change ur speed sensor so u can read the speed and tach. i would recommend that u just get a cluster from a junkyard. If it is from a dual cam u shall have to change out the speed sensor to a dual cam speed sensor. either way u need to change the speed sensor if u want to keep ur jdm cluster or just get dual cam cluster and still change ur speed sensor. Basically Get a speed sensor either froma junkyard or shop online and get one. Also dont geta jdm speed sensor just because u have a jdm engine a usdm dual cam cluster probablly would have been cheaper and easyer to get then the jdm FYI

well I got the jdm from a friend for $40 but what I care the most for is the rev to work how can I make that happen ? there power going to it and all that but it's not working

speed sensor will not affect the tach working. I think the wiring was not done right when the SR swap was done. Under the dash by the ECU there is a white plug that leads from the ecu, and plugs into the dash harness. Has that been converted? Is it pluged in? Are the Yellow/red stripe(tach signal) Yellow/green stripe (speed signal) connected?

PS. The JDM and USDM speed sensors are the same no need to swap them

I do have the Yellow/red stripe(tach signal) hook up and I may sure there was a power from the ecu to the dash harness and to the Analog cluster and still no rev

where did I fu"" up is it ok to use the k24e dash harness or do I need the k24de dash harness or do I need to do something ? thx
