Optimum shifting in 95 SE maxima

What are the optimum shifting points for fast acceleration for a 1995 maxima SE.
G1 to G2 - RPM range
G2 to G3 - RPM range
G3 to G4 - RPM range
G4 to G5 - RPM range

Also what is the gear ratio on this car.
Thanks

That's looks kind of high. Will you not have reached the maximum torque level and start losing speed.

Shifting

I think that you are right about it seeming like you are past the peak of the torque curve, but you need to consider where you will be sitting on the torque curve after you shift also. Quite a few years ago, Andi Baritichi write this up, and i always felt that he was the Maxima God - or at least tied with D.B. Martin !
