Nope. Got 121,000 miles on the stock tranny and clutch - the only thing I notice is a little roughness going into gears if I am driving like my grandmother. I guess the syncrhos are going but other than that it's fine. I just drive fast to avoid that problem. What in particular blows about yours?

Blow goats? I thought you were talking about a Pontiac GTO! I must be getting pretty old.

Could be a lot worse...

could be a Neon, or an old SHO's stick..

If you got an STS, you could get rid of those long throws, that plastic-lever feel, and the stock shift ****.

Personally, it's not the end of the world to me, so I'll just probably buy a different, shorter ****.
