So are 2000 sportys naturally low geared or has someone messed with this thing in the past? When I'm cruising 60 on the highway its running almost 4k give or take on the tack and it sounds wound up pretty tight. Fuel mileage also kinda sucks lol. Just wondering if they are growly by nature or if someone poked it with a stick.

Sounds about right. In the US they all are 4.78 gear ratio. Problem is when you put bigger tires on there is a "felt power loss" you really don't lose power but it feels like it. That is why some guys go with the 5.38's from Korea.

With stock size tire, it should rev around 2,800 RPM @ 60mph
with 235/75 tires, you're looking at ~3,000prm @ 70mph
