Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Since you're thinking about the base 5 spd RSX just get the Civic Si w/ rally shifter. Same motor as RSX. I'd just get the Type-S personaly. It's just like before RSX existed. People was trying to decide whether to get a Gsr or Ls, Se etc.. But you have to decide what you really want to spend & can afford... Good Luck Post pictures after your purchase.
