My old car had one, new one doesn't....barely noticable. Unlike the 996, where there was a huge difference. In a 997 the shifter is already 15% shorter throw than a std 996 shifter, this is maybe another 10%. I'd save my pennies.

Disagree would not say it's barely noticable. Its not a huge difference but it's a nice mod that makes the driving experience more pleasurable.

I feel that the 997SSK is too notchy for my taste. I like the 997GT3. It is silky smooth and has billet aluminum guts vs plastic. In short it is built better, shifts smoother and has a shorter throw vs stock. It has about a 5/8" longer throw vs the 997SSK.

Kevin,
No I don't.. My box is super smooth. If there is a little "hitch" maybe I just don't notice it because I have driven the car for so long. My previous 997 Carrera had the standard shifter and I liked that one as well.

It comes down to personal feeling and touch>>subjective. I'm pulling out my 997SSK to put in the 997GT3 shifter when I have a moment.
