MA61 Digital to analogue cluster

[RObErT_RaTh]

I totally agree, digi guys want analogue, and vice versa.
I love my digi dash, I've even started calling my car "Kit" and trained it to talk.

Ahahahha to add to it all when I got my car it didn't have the trademark supra sunshade and I've always wanted it to see what it's like

Ok - I've now got my RA60 Analogue dash and all the wiring diagrams for the MA61 dash.

I also have all the plugs off the back of the RA60 dash - so I'm thinking I can just swap the relevant pins from the MA61 connectors into the RA60 connectors....

But I'm stumped trying to find any RA60 wiring diagrams. Does anyone have anything?

... but I'm having serious thoughts about buying a speedo and a tacho and making a whole new instrument cluster. It would certainly work better than the factory stuff (especially speedo) and would look hella cool to boot....

I also thought quite seriously about replacing the dash when I install the megasquirt2 ECU as I'll be using a different loom. The dash I was contemplating has specially lit guages behind a darkly tinted panel that you cant see through until you turn the car on, then she lights up like a christmas tree, it looks very cool
I think I will go with a three guage pod on top of the dash aswell though.
Cannot resist ...temptation... must .. have ... more ... guages ......

This is an analogue MA63 dash (also looks the same as a RA60 one I have)



and this is the wiring diagram for a analogue dash from TSRM.



Questions:

1 - Is the TSRM for Australian cars - because the speedo cable is on the left in the TSRM pic, but on the right on the actual cluster.

2 - Is the MA63 or RA60 considered a MkII - ie - would the wiring for the cluster out of TSRM equate to the connectors on the MA63 cluster (even though they are in a different location).

Getting closer to working out the wiring for a swapover

Thanks.

No, thats a USDM TSRM.

[Gibbon]

Ok - any idea on the second question?

[CrUZida]

MA63 dash wiring will be the same as MA61 wiring, with the exception of the boost gauge instead of the oil pressure guage.

It wouldn't surprise me if you plugged an MA63 guage into an RA60/5 and had almost everything work though.
