I've been driving stick for many years and with my past cars I would shift around 2.5k (6k-ish redline). With this car, because of the 7500 rpm redline, I find myself shifting higher... around 3.5 - 4k rpm. Is this bad for the synchros? Again, I'm gently shifting and not forcing the shifter... I just let it ease it's way into gear nice and slow, no fast shifts here. To me, high RPM shifting is 5.5k+ with this car.
