you'll need a tacho interface unit to convert the signals from the coils into one signal for your shift light to work. i'm using one from a VR4.

No its from a 4cyl VR4 with 4G63T.
The 2 input wires get a signal from both negatives on the coils, the output wires into your tach or shiftlight. Easy as.
