Thats what i'm confused on now. I got the speedcal but then after thinking and reading somewhere that said you can just buy a little gear for like 20 to correct it...I mean....how can an electronic device fix a non-electronic speed/odometer?Orange... said:I thought that only the 99's and up you could use that speedcal... the older ones take the speedo gears (little plastic gears that slip in the side of the tranny)??

No he can't, that's a bs marketing ploy to sell programmers, ALL the options do NOT work with every year car, mostly the 96-98'sSaleenGT2001 said:you can easily adjust your speedometer with a speedcal or hypertech or other brand programmer.

stangGT97 said:both the speedo gear and speedcal will work, but the gear wears out faster...
96_SVT_VeNoM said:wait what now im confused?????Also... the higher i go after 3:55s the more its off???? And to answer tom, actually no but i dont want to tell the next guy (if i actually do have to sell) that the odometer is actually less than what it says, i know i wouldnt want to hear that if im buying the car. For some reason thats a turn off.
your car has a mechanical 'speedometer' gear which is made out of plastic, since it turns more, it'll wear out quicker than the stock speedo gear96_SVT_VeNoM said:wait what now im confused?????
you just tell him (if you ever do sell) 'dude! it's got 4.10's or whatever, no one would care96_SVT_VeNoM said:Also... the higher i go after 3:55s the more its off????

96_SVT_VeNoM said:Im ashamed to say it but i think it ruin my cobra, i dont like the whole odometer and tach reading differently afterwards thing. It ruins the fact that the car has original miles in the first place. It goes in the shop wednesday and i feel like calling GTR back and cancelling the swap for the 3:90s. somebody please tell me its going to be all right and that will not ruin the value of my beautiful car
MisterCMK said:Don't get the 4.30s. They suck for daily driving. A close friend of mine bought a 96 with 4.30s in it. It sucks having the engine turning that fast all the time, especially on the highway. Going down the highway at 70mph he is around 3200 rpm, its just too much gear. Stick with the 4.10s if you want steep.
