タコフィ · Nissan JDM sport · the import era (1989–2005)

Skyline · Silvia · Z · Stagea cluster restoration

The original Tachofi platform. JDM sport cluster faults — cold joints, dim backlights, stepper wear, sun-faded dials — restored to factory-fresh (or sharper) and bench-tested before return.

Platforms covered

Known cluster faults by model

BNR32 / BCNR33 / BNR34

Skyline GT-R & GTS-T

Tacho dropouts from cold joints on the cluster PCB. Speedo drops below 60 km/h. Classic candidate for full re-flow + LED refresh while the cluster is open.

S13 / S14 / S15

Silvia (PS13, Spec-R)

Backlight failure, dead speedo, intermittent fuel/temp. S15 clusters benefit hugely from LED refresh.

RPS13

180SX / 200SX

Stepper motor wear on tacho and speedo. Custom dial faces a popular addition.

Z32

300ZX Twin Turbo

Dim displays, segmented LCD ageing, dead warning lamps. Backlight refresh transforms night driving.

Z33

350Z

Tacho needle sweep faults and inconsistent backlight. Sealed cluster — clean, contained restoration.

WC34 / M35

Stagea

Skyline-era cluster architecture — cold joints, dim backlight, speedo dropouts. Same fix.

RNN14

Pulsar GTI-R

Rare cluster — careful disassembly, original markings preserved.

A31 / A32

Cefiro

JDM-only cluster, ageing solder joints. Worth saving — replacements are scarce.

C33 / C34

Laurel

Same RB-era electronics family. Stepper wear and cold joints respond well to bench restoration.

What's available

Per-gauge restoration + optional upgrades

Cold-joint resolder

Every cold joint on the cluster PCB re-flowed by hand under magnification. The fix for ageing tachos and speedos.

LED backlight refresh

Original bulbs replaced with matched LEDs. Crisp, even night-driving illumination. ~$80 incl. GST add-on while cluster is open.

Custom dial faces

Printed dial faces in your colour scheme or aftermarket style. ~$300 incl. GST per cluster, artwork sign-off required.

12-month warranty

Resolder work covered for 12 months from return. Free repeat repair if a joint we re-flowed fails.
