Speaking of speedo's



Great!  That may be why my speedo has been off for so long!  Just for own
sanity how many teeth are on the correct gear for the 2Y(stock 16V)?  I will
just go to my parts guy and count.

Josh,

 I am almost certain that you only change the gear on the end of the speedo
when you are changing the FINAL DRIVE.  Changing out the 5th gear should
have
no impact on the speedo gear.  For a stock 2Y trans (3.67 final) you should
be
using the original white gear, not red.
