JDM B18c Type R runs High RPM's in 5th Gear

[NinjaJDMB18c]

Im in 5th gear and going 80mph and my rpms will be at 4800-5000K. I do have a 98 JDM B18c Spec Type R motor w/ LSD tranny in my 94 Integra LS 2DR. From what I've read my tranny has short gears but thats ridiculous. Its acting like their should be a 6th gear almost.

Apparently the GSR tranny is a mixture of long and short gears and can come with LSD.

Is this truly normal? Could i use my hondata s300 to tune rpms from flying through the gears so rapidly? Or is the only fix to switch to an GSR or LS tranny. Please advise. Thanks!

Yes you want to go into the S300 and uncheck the flying through gear option. I honestly don't know why they have that set on by default. Its fckn stupid.

It`s normal. Hondas rev high. My RS turns around 4000 rpm at 80mph.

I can't tell if this is a troll thread. Trade my ls and you be cruising comfortably around 4000rpm.

You can't tune a mechanical equation.

GSR trans will be around 4000 at 80 mph.
