I had a B&M Trak shifter in my 911. It had an extra long handle to raise the shift knob to the centerline of the steering wheel. The location made shifting effortless and fluid. When I change my shifter on the Z I plan on an extension to achieve the same.

I'm running the TWM SS with an extender and weighted TWM M1 abrams knob. I couldnt be happier with the throw/feel with this set-up. Even with the extender it feels like a shorter throw than stock and gets rid of the rubbery/sloppy feel of the stock set-up.
