rpm question

ok i got a jdm b18c in my civic and i was just wondering approx. what should my rpm be at when cruising on the highway say between 100km -120km. shes running at about 3500rpms at that speed, to high?

it is what it is.. not much you can do about it except physically changing the gearing and tire size.

that seems about right.

The only way to change that is to fiddle around with the tranny. 120km at 3500rpm is fine.

yeah i'm at 4000rpm in 5th going 120km/hr (b16) i could only imagine what it would be like with a 4.785 final drive....prolly closer to 4400rpms.
