Miliage on Cluster..HeLP!
Well as you can see in my sig..I've been looking for buyers for my car..The ONLY problem is...the car's actual miliage is 80K...and the cluster (GS-R) says 150+K...Is there any way that I can have someone turn it back so that its legitiment? I heard that someone can actually match up the miliage on the clutser to the miliage on the engine...Is that possible?

The dealer should be able to do it, but its probably too late for that.

When I changed from a DX to an EX/Si cluster on my civic, they swaped the speedo part of the clusters so I would retain the actual chassis mileage on my car...

Re: Miliage on Cluster..HeLP! (95CivicEX)
The thing is the cluster is a GSR in a Civic...The actual car has 80XXXk miles..while the cluster has 150xxxK miles....Will the mechanic say anything for doing that? I cant put on my Dx cluster because THAT would be really illegal considering it only has 40K miles.

how bout putting the original cluster back in, and sell the GSR cluster seperately? You can always tell the prospective buyers was the actual mileage is...

Easy---buy a brand new cluster w/ zero miles from the dealer. Put it in and dont connect the plugs on the back of the cluster.

Look, like someone said, it's easier to just buy a new cluster with zero mileage. after that when you sell the car you explain you put in a fresh cluster at the time of the swap so the mileage would match the engine. On the bill of sale there is a box you can check that says "ODOMETER DOES NOT SHOW ACTUAL MILEAGE ON VEHICLE" or some ****. Mark that box.
I't for those really old cars that flip the mileage on the OD and now you have a 1973 car reading 5,000 miles. But it will work in this case too
Good luck..
