ok so i was reading some old posts and read that the st205 electronics read kilometers, which of course we all know. but i never grasped the fact that our odometers will change from miles to km (why cant the US be simple like the rest of the world)

i use my trip mileage a lot. will i need one of these signal converters to have it work like stock usdm?

I started with what I know to do, I swap engine into my car, I knew it was too much work to make it a AWD. I kept it FWD. Went to take a crack at doing the wiring conversion. Than, I realize, shoot, this is out of my league.

The speedometer gets signal from a heat driven sensor on the trans. Since most people reuse their S54, it's exactly the same sensor as before. The E153 works perfectly, as does the sensor on my JDM S54. The speedo has no problem at all.
