Default I don't know if it's as notchy as it is...

more of a click-click. Maybe that's what notchy is, but it took me a couple days to get used to it, and now I have no regrets.

Default The old Diesel Geek Original is as smooth as stock....>

It's got the counterweight and is essentially a modified stock piece....But they don't make that anymore. Closest in design would be the Neuspeed

butter is the Original. I wouldn't describe the ultra as crunch into gear.

Default I'd say its a little of both..

It definitely feels better than stock, but its no Ferrari either. It takes out any sloppiness from an old and wore shift setup and improves on factory.

Does any notice that during neutral as well as in gear the **** still has significant side-to-side play? Is it supposed to be like this?
