Hi fellas

As title states - Does anyone know if the original 180km odo's reading can be change.

Thanks

I'm sure they can. Just ring an instrument place and ask them.

Here's one -

Attspeed Auto Instruments -Speedometers - St Marys, NSW Unit 1, 35- 37 Glossop St, St Marys NSW 2760, Australia - (02) 9833 0055

I know VN-VS Commodore ones can be............

I rang inquiring about a car once and ask how many kms has the car traveled?

The owner replied with........ how many would you like it to have done?

Bob.

they can. the other option, which is much more commonly done, is to just buy one with lower kms on the clock.

it should be noted though, if you are trying to do it for dodgy reasons, there are ways to get a rough idea of how many kms a car has done. for starters, everytime a car is registered into a new persons name the kms are recorded, so if you put an odometer in with less kms than what you bought it at, when someone does a REVS check they will see that the odometer has been changed. i'm not sure whether, in southern states that require a blue slip every few years, the kms are recorded when the blue slip is presented (have a feeling they are).

if you are wanting to know whether it is possible because you suspect your car, or a car you are looking at has had it done, it is generally best to assume it has been if thinks seem too good to be true.

I'm thinking of importing one, and know 32 & 33's are changed all the time. Just wanted to know if they do it with 34's as well. Without changing the dash to a nismo 320km one.

When I bought my previous black R34 GT-R from an importer, the fuel gauge needle was not sitting on its spindle properly so I requested that his spare cluster replace the current one.

Both were the standard 180km speedo.

The replacement cluster had only 8500km on it and I asked if the odometer could be altered back up to the correct figure. He got it done within a day.

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
    • New rear lights, filler panel sprayed, cleaned and back together    before, during, after shots 😍
    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
