Frustrating isn't it? Are your revs limited to 4000rpm?
Mine has got the cable in 2 pieces with the converter imbetween but some cars have one long cable with the converter behind the speedo. I got quoted 55 quid for a new cable and 2 week leadtime from Subaru!!! Better off getting second hand mate! Hope this helps?

Mine has gone into limp home mode because the ecu is not getting a speedo signal. So mine is limited to 4000 rpm but I'm not sure if that's because I've got a simtek.
