If your speedo is reading faster than you are actually going, its very likely someone swapped in a better gear...
Jack the car up on stands so the rear tires spin freely.. put a mark [use magic marker or something] on the bottom of the rear part of the driveshaft, and a mark [straight line] on the rear end housing straight across from where you made the mark on the driveshaft.
Then mark a rear tire.. say.. at the very top, with something [I have used a dry bar of soap] going straight up and down, and then on the same rear fender lip, lining up exactly with the mark on the rear tire... make a mark.
Get under the car, and have a buddy slowly spin the tire one full rotation, while you are under the car counting how many revolutions the driveshaft has made... and thats your gear ratio.
What speed is it off by 10 MPH..? Mine... the faster I go the worse its off [mine's 5 speed car & went from 3.08s to 3.73s]. If I am going 80 MPH, mines off by about 20 MPH.
Maybe you had 3.08s and someone prolly went to 3.55s.
