99 civic ex fifth gear cruise
just a simple question to all you ej8 owners out there with your stock d16y8 motors, when you are cruising on the interestate at about 80....wheres your rpm at, on my cousins, it sits at about four grand at 80mph and i was just thinking that was kinda of high for a ex transmission....i remember driving like a 98 a while back and cruising at 80mph, the rpm was only a lil above 3 grand...

I'm pretty sure the trannys are the same (if they aren't, strike my input, obviously). I have a Z6 (Z6 tranny too) and I'm pullin about 3.5-3.7 (about the same range as the other guy said) at about 80mph. Probably closer to 3.5.
