The kit came with some very long wires. The idea is that you sit in the cabin while driving and have somebody (or you) in the passengers seat with GPS screwing around with it until your speedo matches the GPS. That way you can account for any other drive line discrepencies, not just the diff gears.

I tried 2 different jaycar speedo corrector kits and could not get either to work on my VR manual. Healtech Electronics have an android app called Speedohealer V4 Calculator that will give you a percentage. They also have a very good speedo corrector.

Is this one of the new Jaycar kits? If so they have a bad rep. Nothing like the old ones unfortunately.

One of the users on PCMHack website manufacturers a speedo corrector kit which is better than the old Jaycar kit.
