what I really wouldn't mind doing, is getting an SE-R gauge cluster to replace my NO-TACH cluster!! I hate mine, well hate isn't a good word, but I'd rather have a tach. would you suggest me putting in an aftermarket tach (not one of those 4'' ones, only like 2'' from my friend, no shift light or anything, it's very small), or should I try and give the SE-R cluster a try? I mean the only thing I am worrying about is the mileage reading. I really wouldn't mind having some reverse indiglo gauges...but how would I work on the mileage? just hopefully have someone take my word for it? (if I sell) I mean, people say aftermarket tachs read better than oem gauge cluster tachs?! but any tach is better than no tach at all!

If you get a cluster from an SE-R the odometer and tach will both be out of calibration. You need the cluster from a SE or GXE. I did this swap on my 92 XE. You can find all the directions and wiring diagrams in a back issue of SOLM. I don't remember which issue but if you look you will find it.

What is out of whack on the odo?

Yeah, the SE would certainly be the better swap if you are running a GA16. You will have to re-pin the dash connectors. A bit of a pain, but it can certainly be done.

If you compare the speedos you will see that they have different top speeds and the numbers are therefore in different places on the dial. This is why they are calibrated differently and your indicated speed will be wrong.

now when you swap from a ga16 to a sr20 you have to use the sr20 gauge cluster correct?

It would be best if you do.
