Another question: When i get a new speedocable its going to read in mph and not kilometers is it? ( may be a stupid question )

Are you asking if changing the speedo cable will change your MPH to KPH??? the speed doesn't depend on cable at all only on what cluster you have... If you got the JDM CRX SiR then that will be in KPH, if you got and stock USDM one then it will be in MPH.... Hope this answers your question.. Latez
