bought a tacho dash for my ke70 last week, and it came this morning. when i was fitting it i noticed that the odometer reading was about 1000000km's higher than the original 2140232km's (which is going to annoy the living s#!t out of me)

 

first of all, is it legal to change the odometer reading to the original reading?

 

second of all, how would i do it? just take the front section off the dash and roll the wheels backwards? old speedo cable and a drill? i don't want to destoy it, just want it reading right...

Just swap the odometer/speedo from your old dash to your tacho dash.

Take the clear front off and there is like two screws on the back.

drill takes wayyyy to long, get a dremel! and it works in reverse (no joke) well it worked on a ke30 cluster

uuuuuh... i was practicing my "rolling back" on the old one... and playing with the speedo like a little kid... still be good?

I wound back a spare odometer i had for my ke30. wound it back to 00000km and worked perfectly

Is your car a minter? Because if it's not overrated, I wouldn't bother. If you're really worried, keep the old dash and show it to potential buyers.

 

If you had an original 30,000km XY GT then I'd bother putting the effort in.

I'm going to do this to mine

the new dash has 200000 more lol

I just bought a newie from ebay for $44 for my ke55, zero k's, new in the brown paper still. Going in friday after work.
