^ I need a new VSS as well... my speedo jumps around when I floor the car, hits an early fuel cutoff and scares the hell out of me.

I was driving around in the snow the other day just to see how far I'd skid on packed snow and crappy tires... slammed on the brakes and each times my car would almost die and then comes back to life... I was like hmm, this can't be good I'll post on HAF. Turns out I'm and idiot and I didn't grab the clutch pedal when I slammed on the brakes, so essentially I was killing the car. Doh!

It's not adjustable, either you have dirty connections or the wrong tire size.

I really dont worry about my speedo. As long as it works fine (not bouncing all over the place), then its ok with me.
