I've spent a lot of time searching for an answer to this but have not yet found one. Does anybody know if it is possible to change the trip gauge meter from English to Metric, i.e. miles to kilometers, Fahrenheit to Celsius, mpg to l/100 km, etc.?? I've called Nissan Corp, they had no clue. Same result from a visit to the dealer. I don't know if there's a secret button combination or if the gauge or the ECM itself needs to be changed?? With most cars there's a simple button...

Thanks in advance,Mike.

I wish someone had an answer myself. I ended up bringing the car to another country where everything is in metrics. I did find that nismo sells the gauge system that can be replaced with the US system but have NO clue to change the computer gauge (the gauge on the left of the three)

Let me know if you need pics as I don't know how to post pics on this site.

Did you guys figure that one out yet...I just bought an '07 and I'm working on the conversion elements. DRL first, then on to the metric conversion. I see the thread was sometime ago, so hopefully time has managed to solve all those questions.

You could try to change it out the ecu to a metric one from a out of U.S. z.
