It does say it on the speedo. But what type and part is electronic I don't
know. I have to do the clutch in the next month. I plan to pull the engine
out so I can do the plugs and check gaskets etc.

The newer forester GT's look to be electronic too....?? I have a jap-
spec forester GT STI box in my NAliberty and it runs on a cable, you
sure yours do? I didn't think any of them were electronic?
Thanks, George.

what size your tyre/wheel combo is. The relation between engine
revs/ gearbox revolutions/ speedo indication doesn't change. The
speedo receives its signal from gearbox revolutions, not tyre/wheel
revolutions. If the overall tyre size is larger than std, you will
still show 120km/h @ 3000rpm but the car in fact will be traveling
faster, every tyre rotation taking the vehicle further. The opposite
is true with smaller dia tyres/wheels than std.... indicating 120km/h
@ 3000rpm but the vehicle will actually being going slower than
indicated.

away..... he had larger tyre/wheel comb and had increased his overall
dia. The dealer had fitted too bigger tyres to the rim .
