It looks like my speedo is reading on the high side. I am using the e153 tranny out of a 99 Solara. I also have bilstein struts, tein springs and 7th gen GTS wheels with 205/50/16 tires.

Four sources of evidence of possibly reading high:

1.) GPS is reading ~10mph slower

2.) OBDII reader from the solara is reading ~5mph slower

3.) I can be crawling at a snails pace and it reads obviously high

4.) When slowing down to a stop, needle can make un-flowing drops down in speed, does not look very accurate.



Please post your thoughts and suggestions. I'm looking to fix this and get it as accurate as possible. Anyone running with a e153 tranny swap please post your experience. Thanks-
