HILUX SFA-Cluster Problem

[Boltz]

Quick question to the experts on the site, Is it possibple to match the Hilux SFA rev counter to the Lexus V8? or do I need to go aftermarket, i really don't want to put one of those ugly POD things on my dash, so either it works or I just don't have a rev counter......any info would be greatly appreciated!! :)

AFAIK you can use the negative from one of the coils...

As jy net van een coil af werk gaan die rev-counter ook net een coil wys, jy sal moet diodes insit en n draad trek van elke coil af na n central point en van daaraf n draad na die rev-counter toe. Het dit gedien op die 7M's maar nog nie op n V8 nie. Jy sal ook die rev-counter moet calibrate vir die V8.

Now this is where I'm stoopid! .... If you have a V8 running off dual coils and you take the rev counter off one coil, you're still running the rev counter off the pulse of 4 cylinders for the same revs. It should work fine, no?

Thanks for the replies guys....mmmmmm.........seems this is going to be interesting......i'll try these suggestions next week somewhere and lets see if something works......otherwise i'll have to go for the single speedo (diesel hilux) and no rev guage
