if you plan on keeping the car lightly modded and not beat on it then another 5spd will do u good. If plan on tracking it, hwy runs, street run then you are wasting money on another 5spd. What year is the 5spd, the new one? Same happened in my care and i went for the 6spd....sure was good bit of money, but damn it feels good going through gears without hearing CRRRRRRRRRRR
