Good Afternoon all, 

 

I recently purchased an ER34 from Japan and all is swell so far. 

However, I got sent these high-res photos of the interior and I noticed a discrepancy. The cluster is for that of an Auto, however, obviously, the car is manual.

This led my mind to think that the Speedo has been wound back. 

 

Despite this though, as seen in the other photos, the condition of the car is exceptional.

What are your thoughts as it is quite a confusing situation.

 

-T3

 

EDIT: Just got word back from the broker. He just got told it was a manual conversion with the OG K's still on it so all is well hopefully. Is there any common issues that could arise from it being swapped that I should know about?

Yeah, so maybe** it clock has been wound back.

** Ahhahahaa. As if it hasn't been wound back!

Or maybe it's had a manual conversion. Or one of a few other possible things.

Ultimately, none of these things really matter, if the car is not broken,

Thanks for the response mate. Check out the edit :)

No issue with a manual swap done well...and too late to change now but I'd look get pics of the clutch pedal mounting, where the centre console meets the dash, and of course the actual gearbox may have very different klm to the rest of the car

      Hahahahah, look, your not wrong 😂😂 and thank you brother 🙏🏼 jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! 😅 every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts. Im shooketh, go easy on me hahahaha or don't 🤙🏼😊

      If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.

      I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.

      Yes, so it won't work for places with no photos on the net. I would have said that there are no photos of the inside of my house on the net, but....then I realised that my kids' parties would have had bazzillions of photos of the living spaces, kitchen etc put on insta and other shitmedia. So... you can see how insidious it is.
