I order a speedo cable for my 240z from VB. they send me one like this. I can't seem to get the white part to fit in the back of the speedometer. Have anyone installed one of these on their and can tell me how to install it.

Are you sure the white part goes to the speedo?

IIRC it's the gray metal sleeve that goes to the speedo and the white that goes to the tranny.

I am sure that on my 4 speed, the grey serrated "co-ax" style end goes on the tranny. That may be a problem if you have the thing in backwards.

I have to edit my orignal reply, I thought you had this problem: you don't have the correct colored splined cog for your 5 speed. The original 4 speeds have the white cog, I believe you need the black one for your early 5 speed...

But I didn't read your post of your problem correctly, so forget it!
