I say its not read by the transmission because while doing donuts (and spinning the rear wheels much faster than I was actually going) the speedometer isn't reading going any faster. Also, while going about 20mph through a parking lot, and pressing in the clutch and pulling the e-brake to lock the rear wheels, and effectively the transmission, the speedo still read my doing 20 at first and slowly decreasing to 0 when I had actually stopped.

That is what has me confused. I know my speedo is off by 5mph, but im not sure this is normal, or would be normal for a defective cable/worm gear
