    Not speaking from first hand experience here, but as far as I know you just unbolt old and fit new. I think it still takes the standard speedo, tacho and other inputs but plays with them internally to give a digital display, not an normal analogue one.

    Also try talking to the MA70 Supra boys, imports had digital dashes and ADM had analogue. Someone will have swapped. And they're from around the same period.

    You need a digi dash fuel sender, they are different, but apart from that it's plug and play.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    Changing from import MA70 GT limited digi dash to import JZA70R analog dash is quite a big job. The plugs are completely different and require you to chop plugs off the dash going in and rewire it all.

    IT IS NOT PLUG AND PLAY.

    Fuel sendor, actually all the sendors are different, water, oil pressure, fuel all use a different sendor. None of your analogue stuff will work on the digi dash.

    Send me your email address and ill give you the diagram my auto electrican used. It still doesnt cover everything you need for a 100% conversion. But it will get you going.

    About the only thing that is a swap is the speedo cable and moounting holes.

    But either way, you will still need different water, oil pressure and fuel sendors. I just used after market gauges.
    Insert witty comment here....
