Guidot,
SR20DET motors in Japan will have a lower final drive ratio, as was explained in the 2 posts above mine, because you can stay in that gear longer.
Normally, that's not good, but when you are boosting, you would like to stay in the spool-up area for as long as humanly possible.  That's why.  Same with 300zx NA vs. TT.  The NA has our gear ratio, while the TT has 3.8something.
