    Default 1984 Nissan 300ZX Question

    So I decided to pick up some extra money I would buy this car and essentially "Flip It". The car runs really strong, good clutch low miles 160,000(for the age). I figured that I had the resources to put this car back into really nice condition and not come out of pocket that much and make a few hundred on it. All that being said, the car has a couple issues that may or may not be familiar to the Z community. As I don't know a while lot about these cars, I figured I would come to you guys for help.

    The biggest issue I'm encountering is with the gauges. The tach kind of works, the speedometer moves, but it doesnt come anywhere close to the correct speed (i.e. when I am accelerating and maybe going 35mph, it will read 125mph. the fuel gauge isn't working and the temp gauge stays pinned to the far right. The only 2 lights that come on on the dash are the security light and the battery light, although the car stays charged. The two in the center don't really seem to work, one is a voltmeter and I forget what the other is. Other than that all other electronics seem to work fine. Cruise control, mirrors, windows wipers, etc all work with no problem. Any ideas what the problem could be with the gauge cluster?

    Thanks for yalls help with this I appreciate it.
