I don't think you would like the 4.44 manual. You'd be rowing thru gears like one of those viking boat slaves set to a Prodigy song.
4.44's are great in a quick shifting auto, but I think the sweet spot in a stock eg33 is a little low for it.

4.44
4.44 gears allow you to use taller tires appropriate for the weight. my 255/50-16s are the same height as the foresters 215/60-16s and the aston martin v8's 235/40-19 fronts with the width of the bmw m6's fronts. the 5sp isnt exactly close ratio.

255/50/16 is a huge sidewall.
