Thanks Curtis. Excellent info.

(see what I did there?)

Also i did it with the dash and frame out of the car. I dont think it would be fun trying to do it with it still bolted in.

So I'm assuming the round gauge dash harness is different and would be required to fit the gauges? I'd love to see the schematic for the pb210/gb211/b210gx/b211gx etc.

Quote:Yeah, clock was an option -- normally a blanking plate covered the hole. No tachometer or large clock on the DX Coupe, just a blanking plate. Small clock was for GX otherwise a small blanking plate

wood grain may be a PB210 thing

Round-gauge dash came in JDM (B210 and PB210) Coupes & GX Sedan

Identification:
* 160kph speedo: DX, GL
* 180kph speedo: GX
* 7000 rpm redline: PB210 (L-series engine)
* 6400 or 6800 rpm redline: B210 (A-series engine)

I see that some have a BRAKE indicator light, that came into use OCT 1975 for the B120, maybe the same date for B210

Quote:Me too, i've never seen a JDM wiring schematic only the B122-R wiring diagram that Endo sent me

Wiring harness: round-gauge and square-gauge dash harness ("instrument harness") differs. Difference unknown but id guess its the connectors for the supplemental gauges which are only there on the round dash

This is the document that generally has a full wiring diagram. Nissan Service Bulletin. Also has some schematics, mostly for new or changed items. I had a couple of these for the 1200 and they have stuff you won't find anywhere else (e.g. why does the intake manifold runners have grooves in them ...)

Like this one went for $8

It's for the changes that came in OCT 1975 namely H- and A- level Japan Emissions but I expect because it says "introduction" that it will have full specs and wiring diagram (and especially so since it is 106 pages)

If you want to see one of these complete, look at the Service Bulletin 350 Introduction of Datsun Sunny 1400 GX-E -- although that one doesn't come with a full wiring diagram (it's less than 60 pages)

Curtis' dash is the the regular GX gauge package -- a full set of guages
plus it has the OIL and CHG warning lamps in the speedometer

I wonder if you use could use the ordinary harness? The main cluster and tach should be fine.

Then make a little connector from the clock plug to share with the Amp/Volt meter, and the oil gauge. Then just add a wire from the oil pressure sender to the oil gauge. The Amp meter has extra white and white/red wires. The volt meter just has one plug like the clock.

I have the dash and all gauges just no harness.

Sounds do-able

If you modify the stock harness to work with autometer gauges it should work with Nissan

Meant to say ... if you CAN modify a stock wiring harness to work with aftermarket gauges like Autometer gauges -- which is done all the time -- then you should be able to make it work with Nissan gauges
