Ow do folks,

Got my 94WRX a few days ago and had the car converted to MPH. I bought her with 47400Kms on the Odometer, but they have not converted back to Miles, so she is now saying 47400 Miles!. She should be on about 30000. I have 2 separate inspection certificates from when the car came into the U.K in January, stating 47400 KMS. Does anyone know which people are capable of clocking back correctly? Any one in particular in the surreyish area?

Thanks guys (and girls http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif)

Send it (the clock) to Protech in Bristol and they'll wind it back and supply a certificate to proove what they have done etc. They can be contacted on (01179) 861611

It'll cost about £125

Whats worrying is the fact that you can set it to any mileage you want!

47000 miles is already very low for that age of car,sure they havn't wound it back already in Japan??

No. I've got the Hokkaido export certificate with the owner's details and Distance at the time of export. She really is in excellent condition, plus the fact that all of the extra's that were fitted are pretty well top-of-the-range. Despite the fact that she is registered with an 'L', I am being fussy and want everything set up right.
Thanks for all of the info folks.

Just a thought .
Said it because i've seen quite a few imports in Ireland at the main importers yard with loose cowls around the speedometer,and burred screw heads on the clocks .

Don't think this is the case with mine. Saw her within days of her coming in. Didn't arrange it, just turned up. Saw her just as she was, complete with boost guage floating around the floor. Had it removed. DOH!
