Speedometers were either in kilometers (JDM) or miles (USA). Australia started with mph and then switched to kph. Some speedometers had a trip meter.

Speedometer Calibration

Factory speedometer tolerance is usually 5% fast to 10% slow (this is in general, I don't know what Nissan's specs are).

1200 Top Speed discusses this. One magazine test noted the 1200 speedometer in the test car was 7% slow. My 1200s have been between 7.5% - 10% slow (with stock running gear include tire size). Also see speedo off

Where can you go to get a speedo calibrated? Can it be done at home?
