I'm running a Six speed and in Sixth gear at 80mph I'm around 2700-2750 Rpm's. My diff is the TT Six speed diff with 3.13 gears....

+1 on Honda's sucking at high speeds. I had a b16 tranny and 80mpg would be around 4600 rpm. I probably still got better gas mileage though! lol.

How much does a TT six spd diff cost? And where to source one?

I know own a 97 SC400 with a 1jz swap and at 70-75mph my Rpm's sit at around 4k..... I'm trying to get this 98 sc300 cluster from someone I know because I know that the tach will never be acurate due to having a 1j in my car now....
