When you guys are daily driving the celi, what do you guys shift at, cuz a lot of my friends w/ diff cars shift at super low RPM like 2k-3k, but if I shift at 2k, then the car will not have enough power in the next gear, so i was wondering what you guys shift at in Daily Driving.


Thanks

Never above 2000 on a cold engine.

Usually around 3000-4000 daily driving.

5000-7000 spirited driving

And about 9000 rpm when racing.

The car runs great above 1000 rpm though, so in 2nd gear just crawling around in town I can drive between 800 and 1200 rpms. idle on a warn engine is 500 rpms. You just have to love the rotary wink.gif

PS: Not a Celica!
