No problem. You should look into what it will take to make the 4 a 5, and possibly rebuild it with an HF final drive and 5th gear swap. It should definitely make for an interesting project, if nothing else, but should also net you much lower RPMs on the freeway and around town alike, which, depending on your driving style, should net you better mippigs.
