Swapped an SR now the tach doesnt work?

Me and a buddy of mine swapped a S13 red top SR into his S13. The car originally had a SOHC KA. Everything else works just fine, Except the tach doenst work. So basically im wondering if i anyone knows how to fix that without swappng clusters.
Yes i tried searching.. ALOT and came up with nothing.

Need to do the SOHC to DOHC tach conversion. Tach/cluster swap is the easiest way.

There is no fucking way you searched anything. This has been discussed since 1991. The SOHC tach cannot read the SR signal. Even kids who don't own Nissans know this.
