here is a pic of the bracket i need
2001 Celica GT-S Turbo1997 Supra TT 6speed1997 Celica 3MZ/1MZ swap1990 Celica All-Trac
the 8k rpm on the celica is on the 1 oclock position, and on the other is on the 5 oclock position.
theoritically if you just swap the faces.
when the tach hits 6k rpm in real time, it will show 8k rpm on your swapped cluster, if you go beyond that then it will show the needle floating in neverland.
unless there is calibration involved, is there any?

If you dont swap to the v6 tach The tach wont work at all the 4cyl tach cant read the v6 signal

You can use a Dakota Digital or MSD tach adapter to make that work without swapping tachs.

Kurt is right, you cant just change the faces, you need to change the electronics. I also got the gauge cluster in my purchase with the engine. that is much cheaper than having to buy and wire in an MSD box
2001 Celica GT-S Turbo1997 Supra TT 6speed1997 Celica 3MZ/1MZ swap1990 Celica All-Trac
so you swapped faces and the elecrtronics? im not clear on what you did really and how itll give a correct rpm reading..
if you use the stock gauge and electronics itll read 50% higher... i know from experience... redline on my v6 is past where the gauge stops moving.
i believe there is a resistor you can change to get it at the right calibration.

no i just changed the electronic board. they have integrated circuits on them that are designed to receive a 4 cylinder pulse or a V6 pulse. the Camry face wouldn't fit in the celica cluster.

did that board include the motor that moves the needle? if so then its still calibrated for the camry gauge face and would still be off, correct?... unless im missing something entirely

IIRC the mr2 has the same sweep as the camry rpm gauge
so 1 o'clock is ~5,000 rpm on both the mr2 and camry...
but the 1 o'clock position is ~7,000 rpm on the celica face
^MR2 gauge

small update, i got ST205 cables and installed them, i also installed a TWM short shifter. im still waiting for a PS bracket from an MR2 guy.
2001 Celica GT-S Turbo1997 Supra TT 6speed1997 Celica 3MZ/1MZ swap1990 Celica All-Trac
thats an NA MR2 gauge, and just because the sweep is the same, its all about the signal that the gauge is receiving. a V6 is going to put out a different pulse over an I4

i had another slight hang up, i discovered that the AT and MT 1MZ have different rear headers, the AT that came with my engine has the header pointing right into where the shifter cables go for the E153. i ordered a MT header and i should get it monday. once i get the header i can complete the EGR tube. once thats done then it goes back in the car.

updates: engine is all in, just need to fab up the exhaust. once i get that all done and the AC lines ill be ready to run
2001 Celica GT-S Turbo1997 Supra TT 6speed1997 Celica 3MZ/1MZ swap1990 Celica All-Trac
So you're keeping the a/c? Good deal. Cruise control as well?

yes thats the plan, keep the AC and the cruise. its in the 100s here during the summer and i must have cruise

awesome work dude! those gauges are sick
I was hoping you would, just to show what goes into making the 1MZ swap a complete daily driver.
