its not written in plain english, but is coded as such. all the links have english names. scroll through the links and lkook at the bottom to see where each link goes. from there you can pretty much navigate the whole site.

s5 gauges may be more common in japan? would be more $$$/risky if they produced S4 and S5, NA and turbo gauges.. that alone would be 4 additonal gauge sets on top of whatever they offer, and those S4/S5 NA applications would probably be a small market

Hey WingsofWar,

You said originally you can use Miata needles. How does that work? Are they the same size/weight as FC ones?

I thought that was mentioned already? Naturally you're going to need a japanese/english person or company willing to help you out. RHDjapan.com comes to mind, so I would shoot them an e-mail.

correct RHDjapan as contact with them, you may also get incontact with their USA supplier off ebay.

Seriously, regarding these gauges i have already answered all the questions previously in either my first post or around the first page.

About the Miata needles, they nearly weigh the same, the ones you want are from 96 model as their clear, the short needles on the miata are a bit shorter than the rx7 short needles, i dunno how much that will bug you, if i get a chance ill do a write up one of these days to swap in miata needles, but the best option is going with Cyberstork's needle film because its reflective and works well with LEDs.

**NEWS! THIS JUST IN**

Also, iv heard rumors from my special sources of another dash going to be built for JDM and USDM model S4 and S5 and S6. This is a full direct replacement cluster and does 360 sweep, which will go well with aftermarket gauges like DEFI AND it is said that this unit will have an idiot light board integrated into the cluster so you can delete the idiot light cluster on the dash to be freeed up for use. Cannot specify who will be making it at this time, but expect the price to be very hefty and probably not worth it unless it features datalogging compatibilities with most EMS. If it doesnt, your probably better off going with Stack.

Thanks for the info about miata needles. As long as it's accurate, I'm not to bothered by the small gauges being short. I have aftermarket gauges for everything but fuel level anyway.

The new cluster with full 360 sweep sounds pretty awesome, and something I've always wanted (as my other gauges sweep, self test) . But it doesn't actually exist though, still on the drawing board. If it's under 1000 it could sell, over and I don't think I'd do it. Thanks again.

yeah fc people are more than likely budget minded on these things, a new aftermarket replacement cluster probably wont sell too well..
