lol@thread "look how far back MY speedo was wound" :(

I don't usually pay much attention to the km's on used imports, only the condition so if it is wound back.....meh !

To be completely honest though, this 34 is in such awesome condition I think the km's could be accurate :P

I remember seeing in a Jap Mag in Osaka an odo pic that was 123,456.7km which I thought was a damn fine effort :)

Has anyone gone past the 999 999 mark? Doesn't have to be with your Skyline. Maybe an old family car or something.

few cars have, but dunno if they took pics. world record is like nearly 3 million kms i think, some guy with a volvo

One of my friends EL Falcon which was once upon a time a taxi is about to click over to 1 million KM's. If I am not wrong that should go back to 0000000 or something similar lol

Will get a picture of it once it does.

Still on factory motor too lol

a mates ute has gone over 1 million k's, think its already up to 400,000 or something like that, was his dads old work ute that he had been travelling to and from sydney every day since 1985 when he bought it new till a couple of years ago, runs on gas, has had 2 engine rebuilds, gearbox rebuild, and had the oil, filter and plugs changed every 10,000 religiously, still going like it came out of the factory.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
