Default tranny question for PRELUDE owners

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=985841

^^ I'm very curious to know if prelude owners who have higher rev limits experience problems with shifting at high RPMs (7600+).

The reason why i ask is because 99.999999+% of people who do an H22A swap into a civic still use their stock civic master clutch cylinder. I've never even heard of anyone swaping it over actually (like i have). Sure, high RPM will always ruin a tranny eventually, so this question goes out to people who had a great tranny one day and then after raising the rev limit experienced grinding/tranny problems - anyone?

Thanks.

Maybe its just me but I did swap in my buddies hatch with place racing mouth kit problem was shifting at higher rpm, grinds going into 3rd and 4th at 8400rpm. He was using 10w30 oil switched to honaMTF since then it has had no grinds. Its also h23 trans I've had better luck with those 4 some reason just my 2cents.
