I had an unpleasant suprise over the weekend. Heading up the coast for a weekend with some mates, I found they kept lagging behind. I was only doing 115, so I slowed down.... and had to keep slowing down to about 90 for them to catch me.
Now, I figued the guy was distracted by his girlfriend or some such, but when I got up there he demanded to know why I'd done 140 the whole way up. whoops.
we matched speeds on the way back, and my speedo reads 95-98 when the car is actually doing 110. what could be causing this? I know one problem could be total wheel_tyre diameter.
My wheels are the stock mk2 supra ones, with P235/60R14 S96 rubber on them. how do these compare to the stocker supra dimensions?
also, any other ideas on what the problem may be? I dont actually know where the speed sensor is, so maybe the new gearbox could be causing issues?
