i also changed my rear differential, so I'm not sure what caused more loss, but the speedo is faster than i am actually going. When it says I am going 75 its 72/73. I had the cruise control on 76 and went right past a cop checking speeders.

I know for motorcycles there's a "speedo healer" that will correct speedo errors for anything from factory error to changing the rear/front sprockets. Is there a "fix" for the 350? The thing is...our car displays speed in two different places, with a Navi, that's 3 different readings...

wouldn't the speedo show a slower speed with 20's????...the wheel diameter is larger, which means the axle is spinning slower than with a smaller wheel

i cant believe how concerned some of you over the speedo maybe being off a few mph...you drive a 350Z...if you're worrying about a few mph, you bought the wrong car.
