Z24 cluster on 2.2

Would this work on my 2000 2.2?

So you should be fine.

Re: Z24 cluster on 2.2

Ya, I did a search but it didn't really say if a Z24 cluster would work in a 2.2. I just thought it wouldn't because they are kind of different cars.

Re: Z24 cluster on 2.2

Might throw the speedometer off if the Z24 cluster registers more than the 2.2 cluster.

Re: Z24 cluster on 2.2

Hey, if you try it, PM me or post on here if it works. I want to put a tach in, it kinda bothers me not knowing where I am in the rpms.

???

What do you mean "registers more?"

Its just one more input that the gauge cluster is reading from its connection. The non-tach clusters get the same reading, they just don't have a gauge to display it.

The only thing that will throw off a speedo, in this case, would be different tires/wheel combos than stock. And yes, in this case, the "stock" is the base models 15"'s, not the Z24's 16"'s.

Re: Z24 cluster on 2.2

There is a how to on JBO about it. I installed a small tach in a gauge pod for my car. Looks killer... IMO.

It will work just fine, but you have to follow the steps precisely. It will only throw the speedo off a matter of tenths of a MPH.

Like I said in my pm to you, I can't guarantee you it will work, but I think the cluster I swapped in was from a z, and it works fine. As far as your speedo being wrong, well considering you have 18" rims now, its going to be off a tad, but not noticable. Also I'm not quit sure what CRJ was refering to when he said follow precise steps...unless he was refering to the tac he installed in his car, but its a simple swap. Remove your guages now, and put the new ones in. Thats all there is to it. But as the guy said above me, he has a cluster from a z in his 2.2 and it works, so you should have no problems.

I have a tach adapter and a tach I was going to put on my old 2.2 Cavy, then I sold it. The adapter is MSD Ignitions, high quality. And the tach is a standard Sunpro tach. If you are interested in it let me know. It is not a tach as big as your head either, just a 2 3/8"

You have to fuck around with the anti-theft system. There was like a 10 min thing you had to do, thats what i was referring to. SOmthing like you have to turn the car on and then off. But don't open any doors or w/e. Search JBO.. its all there. Its not just plug and play done, there is a little dicking around you have to do.

Re: Z24 cluster on 2.2

Personally, I don't like the people on JBO. They never helped me once with questiosn I've had. Yes I did a search, couldn't find anything, then I asked myself. And all I got were like insults and all this newb crap. I was pissed.

SO Cody, what you're saying, is it's not just a swap in and out kind of deal? 01cacy, you on the other hand, have done this, and said that's what it was.
