Smooth as glass? No, it's not magic. Nothing will make these cars shift like that. More precise, yes. It definitely helped. I've always had/built Mustangs, which have much smoother shifting transmissions (Also helps T5 parts are easily obtainable, and easily rebuilt). The 370Z is my daily driver, I put the shifter in back in January (My car is also a 2016).

What does the shifter have to do with the clutch? I've also never really gotten the synchro argument either? Is the thought you'll be shifting so fast that you'll wear out the synchros quicker (you aren't speed shifting all the time)? Easy enough to throw the stock shifter back in if you started to have a problem. Either way both the clutch and synchros are most likely going to be consider a wear item right? Maybe I'll eat crow later on this one, but I've rebuilt a lot several manual transmission in my garage, if something happens, I'll most likely be the one fixing it anyways.
