Does your speedometer do this?

while driving today my speedometer kept bouncing of 80 and 100. it would so to say twitch at 70mph and above. My HKS TT would jump as well. I unplugged my TT and the speedo still wouldn't stay...any ideas?

speedo cable, check it out make sure it's not damaged in anyway, including the gearing inside the transmission (on the plug where you would pore in more tranny fluid).
