I've seen a few on ebay from time to time. I'm pretty sure you have to buy the whole instrument cluster though - its not just a new face.

Try Z1, they can probably hook you up. www.z1auto.com

not too difficult, actually pretty straight forward, the harder part was soldering on the new leds.

I don't believe you can actually buy the nismo instrument cluster. Supposedly, most of the unique parts for the Nismo won't be available unless you can provide a VIN# from an actual Nismo. I wouldn't be surprised if I was proven wrong after a little bit of time, but even if they are available for non-Nismo owners to purchase it'd probably be a few months until you could actually get one. Probably not much less time than it would take to get from Japanparts.com.

Just be aware though that the one on Japanparts is the Japanese Nismo tach. it's the one that was available for the S-tune Z's. Only has 8,000rpm tach, isn't silver-faced, and the spedo is metric. I seem to remember a thread awhile back from a guy that bought the Japanese Nismo tach and the digital spedo actually changed to metric as well.

you cannot just plug in an 07 cluster to an earlier car...there would be a tremendous amount of wiring involved
