Default ITR TRANNY 96-97 4.4 FD SPEC WITH 5TH GSR 5TH?

Sup ppl just trying to see if somebody has done this or try this.Is it worth it?I know the itr 5th is short so its no good for freeway use and I dont want to use a LS 5TH gear for is to long of a gear and I belive I will feel a big LAGG from going from 4TH ITR SHIFT towards 5TH LS and it will drop to much of rpms.Will a Gsr 5th gear work perfectly for freeway?Let me know please what you guys think thanks alot ppl

GSR is a great freeway gear but TBH I've got no problems on a 4.4 ITR 5th either. These engines are happy at 4k.

I have used a ls 5th in a type r tranny. The RPM drop is pretty big and noticeable. I would recommend using the GSR 5th.
