I personally like the 6MT better but AT can be cool too. Suggestion would be to add a performance valve body (like a shift kit), Stillen has one but i know there must be others. I put a shift kit in the Silverado and it made it much more fun to drive.
Anyone on here with a performance valve body please speak up.

I've also owned an 90 Acura Integra GS which lasted me up to 252K Miles and had to give her up because it cost more to replace the AC system vs the value of the car. That too was modified and I've never had any problems with either axle, clutch, tranny...transmission was still very good at 252K never been replaced just like my G now..no problems. It's how you drive and maintain your car that will determine how long it will last....my 2 cents.
Sadly, I don't think the G would last as long. The teg had power everything and the window motor, sunroof, etc etc. never failed.
