i saw it in some other forums, its not illegal if you are not going to sell the car, and if you are putting the odometer to the mileage the new engine has, but keep track of the body milage too..

usually the legal way to do it is record the last milage measurement on the old cluster and then record the milage on the new cluster so that way you can calculate the total milage. oh yeah and report it to your DMV as well...least in most states you do it that way if the mialge counts. for example in texas it works that way until your car is older than ten years, then your mialge is worthless.

It isn't illegal. If he wants toset it back to zero to reflect the actual mileage of his engine.

go to a dealership and do it. then it would be registered by a dealership also. that makes it legit. that way your mileage would go on your car record (carfax) as exact mileage not odometer fraud

I am sure the inside of a integra odometer is similar to those found on an ek.
