Instrument Cluster Digital Meter converion?
any updates on this conversion in US? (digital meter on our sc) I remember it was impossible to do this conversion but one guy in Japan actually done this before (well now his soarer 2.5GT-T AT has SC instrument cluster.) He said it's not easy at all but I'm curious if anybody in US has done this by now.
Does anybody have any extra SC instrument cluster that you want to sell? (maybe MT). some guys in Japan want to try this conversion on his soarer. I dont think I ever seen actual SC300 MT instrument cluster. do you have any pictures? I wanna see the difference. THX

Lexus to Soarer is fairly easy. Soarer to Lexus might as well be impossible. $5k in sensors and wiring and computer to be worked with.

As long as you don't get caught with having a Km/h reading by the authorities I beleive that you would be able to use this if you are doing a Soarer 2.5 Swap (1JZ-GTE). With some front cuts the instrument cluster is included, and all the wiring and ECUs are included, so it should work. Doono why no one thought of this before.

you think if someone identified all the wires and their functions of an sc cluster, cut and wire them up to the soarer harness it'll work??

A front clip from any soarer with this type of cluster should work. Most people opt for a 2.5TT clip that has the 1JZ-GTE engine. Before you order check if it includes everything. During installation you will ahve to splice up the harness to include the US ECU to run your A/C.
