No electronics whatsoever...

Besides, the only FC model with "wheel sensors" are ABS brakes equipped ones.
So you're saying the only FC models with a proper speedo are only ones with the ABS option?
Of course you're not.

Good to know about the mechanical drive for the speedo...

I was not trying to imply that only speedo's based off of WSS are good. I was trying to imply I hope the Mazda engineers were smart enough that they kept the "speed" of the speedo cable the same, and to change from KPH to MPH all you need to do it switch the cluster (whether it be driven by WSS or cable) instead of having to say switch gearing in the tranny, or the cable perhaps... (i'm just rambling now)

if you know what I mean....
