my wife owns a 2004 Spec V, complete with brake package...

I prefer the horses my Conquest puts out, and use this one as a backup.

No one knows anything aobut the gauges?

Thanks,

Chris

It has a machanial spdo and electrical tach..

your gas and temp gauge is not woring because of a regulator on the back of your cluster panal . it should be a thre wire one with a silver box. it's about 40 bucks at the dealer well worth the trouble. try
www.nissanfourms.com than search on this topic and you'll get tons of info.
