there for it engages to each gear with less movement and force...

Most short shifters actually increase the effort it takes to shift. That's a common by-product of reworking the angles of the shifter. The factory designed it to reduce effort (hence the factory knob being so heavy). To shorten the throw, you would have to increase effort.

My short throw shifter is from TWM, and was cheaper than the TRD unit. Still works great after two years, too.

were did you get the TWM shifter from?
