im sure ur not gona be "splitting" anywhere with a z6 unless its turbo BUTT the redline on the d16z6 is 7200.. and the redline is the place that you DONT want to be unless you have a built head.. if you overrev you can blow your motor

Re: (muhaMan)
Redline = 7200
Car won't make power past 6800 - shift there - Well actually shift at 7100-7200 assuming you have a stock tach - because the honda OEM tachs read high as ****. If you have an aftermarket (good) tach - shift at where it says 6800.

Being a base model owner it doesn't take long to figure out that redline = power stoppage.
Where your car doesn't make power anymore, ******* shift.

Re: First timer!!! (Midori Green)
all this info is correct but not.
Rev it out as high as you can before shifting.
though the engine makes no more power after a point.
when you shift your landpoint will be higher thus the next gear will be quicker.
come on now.
wind that motor out, is a dog, but it will do the trick.
