If the cars tray is stock they will all be the same. The size of your wheels/tires can change the rpm's at speeds though. I'm rolling on 18's and at 71mph I'm at 3000rpm on the dot, and it's a 04 Sti 6 speed

I'm a lil disappointed about the 6spd. The camaro and vette 6spds the 6th gear is a nice tall overdrive. My buddy gets 28mpg in his z06. That car is sliiiiippery.
Kid i worked with had a camero and he said the same thing. 6th gear on the freeway was crazy good gas millage, super low rpms
