5 speed to 6 speed swap speedo doesn't work??????????
Hey guys i have a 03 evo 8 that i just did a 6 speed swap on. The car is together and running just fine but I can't figure out why the speedo doesn't work. Is there anything specific that needs to be done to make the speedo work? any help is much appriciated.

Thanx for all the imput and the reason i switched was because my 5 speed was grinding in 5th and 3rd and when i pushed it hard it wouldn't shift into 2nd or 3rd. The 6 speeds are cheaper and it shifts a lot smoother than the 5 speed i had. I think as long as i get solid mounts and decent suspension wheel hop should be eliminated and the trans should hold up just fine. Iv already rapped it out a couple of times and it shifts sooooo smooth i love it. Im actually glad i did the swap to a 6 speed. Now i just need better mounts so the motor won't move as much.
And also another question what mounts do i need to buy for the motor? since the trans is different im gonna have to get half evo 8 and half evo 9 mounts aren't I?
