Default For those that have Getrag swaps...

I just finished my Getrag swap in the past week or so, and I noticed that my speedometer was off (reading higher than actual speed that is given to my by my built in Navi/GPS), so I figured that the problem was that I used the Supra Speedo gear. Well, today I decided to swap in the SC's speedo gear from the W58, thinking that it would help, but it didn't. Is this a problem associated with Getrag swaps? I'm asking because I didn't mix/match any parts. I used a 6spd tranny, with a 6spd rear end, and I've tried both the 6spd speed sensor, AND the W58 speed sensor. I figured since I used all the parts that correspond to one another, I wouldn't have any speedo issues. Any ideas? Is anyone else experiencing this?

How big are your wheels? This just doesn't make any sense. It was dead on with the W58 and stock pumpkin, but as soon as I went Getrag, and 6spd pumpkin, it's all screwy. I'm not sure what else it could possibly be...
