lol. this is true. for the street, the b16 is perfect. as for highway, you're at 3750 @65 mph, 4000 @70, and hitting vtec by 80. then again, this is on my ys1 which has the shortest of all the b series gears. all the other b16s (excl. 99-00 si) will be a little more bearable in 5th gear on the highway.
specnically speaking b-series gear ratios
speed/rpm calculator

I got a b16 J1 with a kaaz LSD connected to my b18c1. Its a nice combination but be prepared to cruise on the freeway at 5k, personally i like the fact that i can pass in 5th and even though i got a greddy sp and its still loud as F**K.

what speed are you at when the tach is at 5K. 75? anyone else with personal experience that has went from a GSR to a b16. I just need to make sure before i buy this 750 dollar JDM b16.

4500 is 80 on a ys1. 5000 is more like 86. check out those sites i posted and all will be answered.
jdm ys1 speed per rpm in each gear
