4spd is great on gas but sucks in acceleration. I had one but swapped a 5spd. Huge difference. If you plan on just crusing around and is in great condition, get it. If you want speed dont but it. After driving your teg you will think that ef is slowwwwwwwwwwwwwww. IMO without the ef there would not be an import performance aftermarket. It made v8 owners open their eyes!
