New Gear Ratio - Speedo Accuracy

Hey guys,

Quick question here about the accuracy of our speedometer.

Will the speedo on a bone stock SVX be still accurate with a manual tranny + rear differential with a different gear ratio from stock?

Cheers!

Short answer no.

But it wont be far off either, even 4.44 gears is only off by 6mph or so. And it can be adjusted by different sized tires

BONUS! - What are the options for someone who wants to keep his speedometer (mileage) accurate with the stock tire size and wants a manual gearbox? Is the only viable unit the now old and hard to find from a ~95 Legacy with cable clutch?
