hey ppl, I was jus wonderin wat you're shifting at and at wat RPMS. this is all in km's (Canadian)
I jus find my shiftin a lil messed up, this is wat I shift at, at around 3000-4000 rpm : 1st 0-20, 2nd 20-40, 3rd 40-60, 4th 60-80 an 5th is 80 to watever, I havent gotten to high I've hit 140 km tho but I jus found it weird that I have to shift so soon. Is that how it is?

I'm not concerned about how much I can push my RPM's its the short shifting phase that confuses me......its so quick. I mean I'd b in fourth gear on just a main street not even a highway. k this is wat I shift at in miles approx. 1st 0-12, 2nd 12-25, 3rd 25-35, 4th 35-50 an 5th is50to watever

icic ok this is how it goes for me... 1st:0-15 (10 if i'm in traffic), 2nd
10)15-25, 3rd: 25-30, 4th: 30-40(45) 5th anywhere above 43mph....yea i shift a lot lol
what i've also find is as long as the RPMs didn't dip to/below 1500rpms your doing good...cept in 5th...where i dont let it get below 1700rpms.

so wat do I have? the SOHC tranny? cause I got a DOHC engine.Is theSOHC tranny 3.55? Anyway only reason why I'm really worried about this is cause I work pretty far, an on the highway I'm hittin 3000-3500 an hittin that for half an hour is not doin too good to my gas mileage.
