Is there still a gear indicator on non S-mode (i.e. non sports package) 6MT models?

k.alexander · 02-05-2009, 07:31 PM

Silly question, but is there still a digital indicator, at bottom of tach, for the non-sports package (i.e. non synchro-rev match manual transmissions)?

ctzn · 02-05-2009, 07:35 PM

I would imagine there is, even with SRM off it still displays the selected gear on mine.

Not 100% positive, but yeah what he says ^ mine shows with it off too.

Can anyone with a non-sport package version confirm?
(still can't believe i forgot to look yesterday when I test drove one, or maybe it wasnt light up which is why i dont remember it).

bboypuertoroc · 02-06-2009, 12:56 PM

Yes, there is. All the models have it.

azn370z · 02-06-2009, 01:04 PM

I would assume since the base doesn't have the transmission sensor thing it will not show which gear the car is in. The sports package adds a sensor on the transmission.

bboypuertoroc · 02-06-2009, 01:37 PM

I say again, it is available on ALL MODELS.

k.alexander · 02-06-2009, 04:42 PM

In which case, I'm confused by this picture:

^ I just saw a pic of an auto with the indicator (off of NNA's website).

Maybe only the 6MT non Sport is without it? That wouldn't make any damn sense though.

No, the AUTO trans definitely has the gear indicator.
The Sports S-synchro MT6 has one for sure as well.
But I'm now 99% sure that the MT6 (non-sports model) doesn't have the gear indicator (and I mean, it looks like it doesnt eve have the two little LED circles for it).

bboypuertoroc · 02-06-2009, 05:19 PM

^ You know what I find weird about that pic... Nissan states that the auto doesn't get the shift indicator, but yet it shows it on their site (the link I posted). Hmm.

3SeventyZ · 02-06-2009, 05:48 PM

Yes, all models have the indicator.

k.alexander · 02-12-2009, 12:09 AM

Ok, now that I've picked up my base, MT6, non-sport model, let me give you all the definitive answer: There is NO gear indicator, nor is there even a little window for one on my car.

azn370z · 02-12-2009, 12:51 AM

Congradulations on getting the car.
