what are you bumping for? i have a 5 speed and 3000-3500 @65-75 mph is totally normal. every car i have had, whether 4,6, or 8 is roughly about the same. if it were 5000 rpm @65-70, then i would worry.

After riding in my friends 94 Integra GSR 5-speed that tachs 4,000 RPM at 80, I don't trip about 3,000-3,500 at 75 at all. Its hardly any different than my dads 5-speed Infiniti G20.
