Default Which gearbox to go for ?

I currently have a ver4 type r. I love the short box except whe cruising down the motorway. It seems to want another gear.

so do i go for a uk fith gear or a six speed box ? Keeping in mind I would like to keep the close gearing

Im new to the scooby world so not to familiar with my options

If you want to keep the close ratio's your best option is to have your current box rebuilt with a UK 5th.
