    Yea thats about right, once the torque converter locks. That usually happens around 77km/h depending how much you're accelerating. If you're just cruising along on a flat road, accelerating just enough to maintain speed it should be sitting about 1500rpm @ 80km/h.

    what trans do you have? with the holden T5 you should be doing100km/h @ 1850rpm with 3.08:1 diff ratio and 17" wheels. thats what mine does. with 3.45 ratio it's 2050rpm, 3.7:1 it's 2200rpm and 3.9:1 it's 2300rpm
