Calling all 6-speed JDM users

Holy crap.... 3k rpm going barley 65mph in 6th gear!! Any higher and the revs multiply with no real gain in mph.

I have a v7 JDM 6-speed (non-DCCD) and love it. But it's like driving my old 5-speed in 4th gear on the highway. I also run E85 :Sad:

How do you guys fell about this situation?

`Honestly I am not sure, I could be wrong. I will check tomorrow on my way to work and post back up! lol But I think around 80mph I'm at 3200-3500rpm.

I believe WRX 5 speeds are a little over 70MPH in 5th at 3,000RPM and STi 6 speeds are at about 75MPH in 6th at 3,000RPM. This is from what I can remember riding in my friends cars.
