the third gear on all hondas (for the majority) is a lot longer

You could change the final ratio of the the tranny with an integ type-r final gear



but after a while you will love third gear because it allows you to stay in the high rpms for longer than the other two gears thus producing high power

Just do general upgrades to your car and it will make every gear faster. Short of changing gears, I don't know what else you could do.
