/In for the discussion.
you probably mean "short throw" shifter?
I much prefere mine on the 1st Gen (they have a really long throw!).
Its been so long since I installed mine, but I absolutely love the short throws in my car.
Yes short throwQuote:

I've missed maybe 2 shifts in all the years and miles and racing on the Stealth. SO yeah, as long you know how to drive a manual properly, you'll be fine.
No matter how good you are, if you are driving a manual, you will miss a shift at some point. The short throw shifter makes it even easier to miss, especially going into third.
Ive never driven with a short throw shifter, I was thinking of buyin one from 3sx, the best one, but it sounds like it could make me lose a race as of shifting quicker.
