if you read the manual its tells you the recommended gear changes in KM's. which turns out to be about 3000rpm.

if your changing from 2 - 3 at 7800rpm, wouldn't that mean your almost instanteously changing to 4th, if your changing at 5000rpm, if that even?
unless your driving style is kind of like 'rev - change gear - let revs drop down - rev'?

Beeza, I don't think this applies to you in the sense that i think he may be inquiring about gearchanges in an s2000, not automated sloppy gearchanges in an auto EK1.
