supra dash in a 94 pickup?

i am doing a supra swap in my pickup 2wd, but my gauges dont have a tach and the speedo only goes to 110. so i was wondering if there was a way to put the supra dash in or find a custom dash to go in any ideas thanks

I suppose with enough work and skill you can make anything fit, but the easiest is to find a SR5 combination meter out of a v6 truck. It's a drop in unit, full instrumentation and the tach is already calibrated for a 6 cylinder. The only thing that might be a pain is if you don't have a tach wire in your harness. Toyota harnesses usedto be universal with all of the wiring for any possible accessory in the harness, my 89 4Runner had all of the wiring when I did this upgrade, but somewhere in the 90's Toyota made the harnesses vehicle specific. Your 90 might be okay, but if you search this forum you will see that many people have had to put a tach wire in to do this upgrade.

I did not know that. That's good information.

from what i know the tach wire thing is all random and its luck if you have one and your truck doesnt have the original sr5 gauges. but even if you dont have it im pretty sure there is a write up on how to do it without it.
