Compatible gauge cluster for 97 240SX motor?

[kreber]

I need to know which clusters I would be able to use on my truck as I had a 240sx motor from a 97 swapped into a 93 nissan pickup. I have been having a hard time finding a 97 240sx cluster and would like some help on searching for anything that will work. Hope you guys can give me some information. Thank you!

If the engine is a KA24DE you dont need a 97 240sx cluster you can use any from 240sx from 1992 or up as long as that 240sx is running on that engine. If the 240sx had the Sr20 do not use that cluster since the signal is higher than the one the Ka24 sends and wont be able to read it

so i need a cluster from a 240sx no other ones from any other cars would work? they are really hard to find. if not do you know of any other ways to get a cluster? or just keep searching online?

What year is your truck? because theres a way to modify your cluster so it can pick the weaker signal of your engine I would be able to help more but im not in my home now so all my 240sx stuff including the car itself its at my house not at college. I should be there by friday tho and tell you some stuff i have bout the subject, that or if you could find Sport compact car project silvia they have a similar problem with the solution in one of their old magazines 2 sad i have it in home. =[

ya um well the truck is a 93 and it runs nice we just need the cluster but i'm told that the motor is the KA24DE but that i also need it to be a digital speedometer cuz something about it hooks into the transmission. As you can tell i know nothing and my dad is helping me lol.

Have you tried to get the spedometer from a 97 98 truck they also come with the KA24DE, and you dont need the digital spedometer, since the only 240sx that came with that spedometer is the coupe that had sunroof and automatic transmision besides those ive never seen a 240sx with that spedometer and ive had 3 of them. Also are you sure its the cluster and not the spedometer drive gear since its a common part to replace in the 240sx transmissions ive replaced them twice in both my old 240sx and the green one i own now. Also theres a easy way to modify the cluster in such way it accepts the signal tomorow im going to head home and ill post it for you to see if it helps

ok thanks that would be awesome

Theres the link below the seats issues and studs is the cluster issue, see if it helps and again I would recomend that you check the spedometer drive gear since i have had to replace that two times in both my 240sx's since they tend to wear off and the spedo stops working
