Is yours an electronic speedo? Because when I got my 3.63 it came with a fully intact speedo for the trans, but because mine is cable (95) I couldn't use it. If you are willing to wait a week, I'll send it to you for whatever a small flat rate box costs. (it's at my parents and I won't be there until next weekend). It's better than paying 125$.

I had trouble finding one as well so I ended up ordering the gear directly from Mazda (I forget the part number but its out there). The shaft on the newer VSS is larger than the NA so I used a lathe to open up the ID of the gear and press fit it onto the shaft. After that it just a matter of getting the gears to mesh correctly (I used a mill to get the correct fit.) It's quite a bit of work but saved me $125
Here's the final product.

I have a 3.63 diff and I'm using a 3.9 speed sensor. The speed measures correctly compared to my GPS when using 225/45-15 tires. In case you are running that tire size.

Just for clarity, those part numbers are for a mechanical speed sensor and won't work with the electrical VSS (which I think was introduced on NBs) without modifications.
