they can be very useful if you race alot, but yeah it will be more stiff and harder to shift for everyday driving.

it may make shifting a bit harder but as long as you religiously change the tranny fluid with Redline MT-90 your in the clear and the shifts will be precise and somewhat smooth...but when your dragging who cares about smooth

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

It feels like a truck gearbox!

Alas, the relatively robust aftermarket support for STS's for the 4th Gen. . .
