yeah mine does. otherwise if you press the odometer button the kms should pop up on the display.

as for a keeper, thats what I said going back 2.5years ago too. And it looks like it will stay with me as I have put far too much cash in this car to warrant throwing it away, which is what Id basically have to do if I sold it. Best I would get is 8k if not less.

So this will be my family heirloom to pass down.

SVI injection I hear is great but expensive. Not sure if the rebate will apply to a car already fitted with LPG. But I hear you could be up for anywhere up to 4k to get it fitted as the old lpg system has to be chucked bar the tank to make way for the new unit. Graham West can do it on Marion Road in Ascot Park/Parkholme area.

Diff gears, Id recommend going an xr6 diff swap. swapping diff gears can have some whining in it if not fitted nicely. The diff swap did make a good difference too. Be sure to pick up the 'black' speedo cog if/when you do it to make the speedo read closer to correct.
