6MT, At what RPM do you shift?

[kysit]

Hi,

At what RPM do you shift in normal driving?
For instance

1->2 3.5K
2->3 3.5K
3->4 4K
4->5 4K
5->6 4.5K

1-2 > 4.5 ish
2-3 > 4.5 ish
3-4 > 4 ish
4-5 > 3.5 ish
5-6 > 3.5 ish

For saving fuel, and around city:
1-2 > 3 k
2-3 > 2.5 k
3-4 > 2 k
4-5 > 2 k
5-6 > 2.5 k (I do this so I don't lug the engine)

For frisky driving
1-2 > 5 k
2-3 > 4 k
3-4 > 3 k
4-5 > 3 k
5-6 > 3 k

1->2 7000
2->3 7000
3->4 7000
4->5 6000
5->6 5000

[JK819]

1->2 3k
2->3 2.5k
3->4 2.5k
4->5 2.5k
5->6 3k

When someone bugs me

1->2 5.5k
2->3 6k
3->4 6k
4->5 7k
5->6 5k

If you look at your owners' manual, it will tell you that to get the best fuel milege is to shift @ 3000 rpm through ALL gears, 1 through 6. But when to shift depends on really how you want to drive your car.

I normally shift between 3 and 3.5K unless I'm really looking to be conservative, then its 2.5 - 3K...

I shift around 3k, per the manual, when I'm just tooling around town. I shift at the redline (7100 or so) when I'm in it.

7600rpms! 1 thru 4.. and then 5000rpms 5th gear and about 4000rpms 6th
