Do you have a camera from the same age as your car? :p

It's called a 1.3MP camera phone Brad :p

Hard to get a good photo when it's pitch black, on a bumpy arse road doing 100km/h with an arsehole tailgating right behind you !

Went through Munich airport on the way home from England... They had a sex toy shop right there in the airport :p Duty free sex toys anyone? :ROFLMAO:


Hahaha that's pretty funny, you'd think people from a country that has such loose rules on certain paraphenalia in public (I heard this anyway) wouldn't take offence or mind things like that, and would just edit the title or whatever instead of resorting to what they did :p

So if you change the speedo, is the K's logged somewhere else or will it be reset with the new speedo?

As in, the chip registering the K's is within the actual original cluster, and not on a ECU type thing elsewhere?

The clubvr4 article shows it at 3km :D It is now up to 6000km or so. In NZ it doesn't cause issues, don't know about Aus.The speedo unit that the odo reading runs off is all one piece. I didn't bother to look into a way to get around it.

Its technically possible, but it'd take nothing less than an electronics engineer to figure it out from scratch, or if you spoke fluent Japanese you could probably find out how its done as its certainly not uncommon over there. You can probably buy a USB cable and some software to do it.
