If anything, pull out your current speedo and hold onto it as a record of your km's and fit a BRAND NEW speedo cluster if you must.

Tampering with speedos is not cool

Why the hell would you bother clocking back an instrument cluster that you're planning to replace? Sounds pretty dodgy (and very illegal) to me mate...

Its not hard to turn it back, my dad knows how to do it. but for the sake of being illegal, no one will tell you just becasue you would be able to do it on many cars, even thought the new ones are digital and very hard to **** around with.

that's not what it says.

to the op, I'd suggest you hold onto the original - so that when you eventually sell the car - you can verify the true _original_ kms.

oops my bad

just leave it mate if someone wants it with lower KMs let them change it

more to the fact that there are other things that may go wrong with higher km's then just the engine. I also can't help but think that if i bought a car thinking it was 1/4 of what the dash said, i would either feel ripped off or it was a bad quality. (ie, the interior was bad for a 90k car but ok for a 120k car?)

just my two cents

    • Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.
    • Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?
    • My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more
    • Welcome buddy! Plenty on here and YouTube. What are your plans for it? Good luck with the Rwc and Rego bud!
    • Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
