Converting a R33 Cluster to MPH?

[linuxbatm]

Anyone had any experience doing this? Is there a better way than hooking up a square wave generator to the speedo and adjusting?

Use your stock cluster and modify the R33 signal

why not just scrape off the kph numbers/letter or paint over them and put new vinyl stickers in their place.

*sigh*

better yet LS Auto speedo and tach.

But the r33 cluster is such an awesome cluster... This is extremely simple to do on a s13 cluster, i just dont know the resistance values id need, so i was wondering if anyone else had any idea.

theres a chip you can buy i believe that all UK skyline owners use and also i believe there is a write up on how to convert the km/h to mph on the r33 speedo, just google it and you can find it, cause i was considering the r33 cluster but when i found out that the s14 cluster speedo works perfectly if you have stock 4.08 diff gears and the tach is adjustable. but good luck.

if you dig that info up post it up here

I looked for this kind of info before, and i just tried again and found nothing, if it wouldn't be too much trouble could you post a link here?

no problem i was thinking of doing the r33 cluster but i didnt have the money for a new one and the used ones are hard to find,once i found out that the s14 speedo is accurate with the rb25 speed sensor i decided to keep my stock cluster. but good luck

well i picked up my r33 gtr cluster and i also had a gts one, so i converted the gts one and put it in the gtr cluster, and when i get my car done. ill test it out and see if it is accurate with my gps. ill try to take a vid of it and ill post it. ill put up a write up and maybe i can get it put into the faq section.
