I don't think you can have the wires hanging loose, but otherwise it may be ok :)

They might only get picky and tell you that it will hurt you in an accident, but other than that, I don't think they can say too much.

my mate got a yellow for his monster tacho and when he got the sticker off we asked what the rule was they told us that it has to b mounted below the steering wheel and shift lights are illegal if they are connected. so where u have it should be fine just unplug the shift light and hide the cables so they cant say u just unplugged it if you get pulled over, they are for racing only.

looks cool tho hehe. well i have one in mine shift light is easily taken off

as for wiring, try and get a wiring diagram for the ecu and find where the rpm signal is, the rest should be like the wiring for the lights, ign, ground and such

There will be an rpm signal wire at the back of the dash (for the dash tacho), ignition & illumination feed you should be able to get from headunit and/or back of speedo/rpm cluster.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
