Thanks for the Car and Driver cite. I'll save you the VSS research. The 1992-1995 Honda FSM says the VSS turns 1025rpms when the speedo reports 60mph and the 1996-1998 FSM says 1026rpms for 60mph. And the speedo gears across almost all of the trannies are 90.7mm diameter.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
