i have a 91 E right now...and i was wondering if i could get any b13 Tachless cluster and still work effeciantly....like i have not clock on my cluster..but if i going to get the cluster with a clock would it work just fine?
damn someone has got to know if this swap will be safe....i just got word i have a 92 XE cluster waiting for me...just gotta make sure it will work just as fine...cause i have the E cluster and also a 91...wanna know if the wiring is just that same..actaully pug thanks
Look on sentra.net. These topics are covered in detail. I've considered doing this myself, but I'm going to add high-quality gauges instead--and I don't like the idea of a bogus odometer reading.
Matching the clusters should not pose a big problem.
The main difference I recall offhand is that older models (such as my '92) have a mechanical speedometer cable.

Oh, no--I'm not swapping clusters, but I have read of it. Sorry if I gave you that impression.
I'm keeping my original cluster, but adding a tach under the cowling at lower left.
Then in the factory radio DIN slot (right below the air conditioning vents), I'm adding a water temperature gauge, a voltmeter & an oil pressure gauge.
But this is all just in the planning stages now.

You'd have to get one from a 91-92 because 93-94 have electronic speedos IIRC. Your speedo would go higher than say if you got a tach cluster from a GA16DE equippped car (Did they make a GXE or SE in 91-92?) I think those two trims had tachs in them for the GA16DE but you'll have to verify that. You could put a 91-92 SE-R cluster in and like I said it'd have a higher MPH speedo and I think the redline might be a little higher than where the GA16DE limiter kicks in at. 6700 is the limiter cutout on GA16DE's and I think SR20DE's cutout at like 6800 or something like that. Unless you have a JWT ECU which bumps the limiter up. Hope this helps some.
EDIT: I didn't realize you weren't swapping the whole thing out in your case 92Sinatra, although that'd be a lot easier. You'll have to find out if the tachs both work the same way. I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a mechanical tach anyways, at least not being used within the last 20 some years. You could do what I want to do when I get an SE-R, which is, instead of installing aftermarket gauges all over the place, speedo, tach w/ shift light, oil, temp, etc. and for some odd reason leaving all the OEM installed, take the existing cluster out and make a new mounting plate for the gauges and install all the aftermerket like they were OEM. I think it'd be much more functional and sharp as hell. Only foreseeable problem would be the odometer.
