Speedo

So I was driving down the road today and this new civic passes me, the ones with the huge digital gauge. I managed to see what speed he was going at when he PASSED me. he was going 47, I was going about 52 according to my speedo.

WTF!?!?

Is mine THAT far off? everything on my car is bone stock (tire size, wheels, tranny)

RE: Speedo

Well, at the point of passing he would still be going faster than you. If you were going along side by side for a while then I would be concerned, but if he passed you.. then he was going faster than you.

RE: Speedo

Did he have something other than original OEM tires and rims? Do you have something other than OEM tires and rims? I have a GPS in my Civic, and the speedometer is "spot on."

RE: Speedo

Ah sorry reconstyle, my mistake! Not a clue why this happened. Take your car to a garage to get dynoed?
