Has anyone else noticed that the '04 Civic EX 5-speed runs at high RPMs. I mean this is my first Honda, so maybe they all did this, but at about 3000 RPM in 5th gear I'm only doing about 60. Is this normal? Is the engine made to run this high, I assume it is or else they would not have made the gear ratio like that. On my old car, a plymouth POS, it liked to ride between 2,000 and 3,000, so I would shift around 3,000. Does this mean for the Civic I should be riding it between 3,000 and 4,000? Thanks for all the help guys!
