Considering buying one of these vs Miata vs FRS/BRZ/86 for autocross. Curious how the gearing is on the car and what the top speed in 2nd gear is.
The only information I have, which may be wrong/outdated, is NC miata transmission (same ratios?) and 6250 redline. Which is a top speed of around 54mph if I recall, which would be a deal breaker for me lol. For reference new 86 is 57mph for the incoming model, higher for outgoing.
I'm hoping they did not go the 2011 -> 2012 Civic SI route of having the same ratios in an engine with 1000 less rpms.
