Mine sits round 7-800 rpm when warmed up, there could be many causes for your high idle.....maybe a vac leak, temp senser not working right,..etc

750rpms is normal idle,I wouldn't be worried about 1000,check your throttle cable,maybe clean your IAC valve

Depends if its an auto or manual...

Auto: 650 RPM
Manual: 900 RPM (I think)
