Was watching a program recently and the camera's point of view was from behind the front seats of a car being driven in Japan. This car had a manual transmission. The driver's side was on the right side, of course. My question is this: What is the shifting pattern for a right hand drive car? In America, first gear is (usually) at the upper left in the "H" pattern, and then it works its way to the right as you row through the gears.

Any help?

It's the same, although where reverse is depends on the car. also, the pedals do not change order.
