I know what OP means, it IS a bit... different, ( Not to mention a bit fragile...I blew mine up on the track) The second one I put in feels a little "unsolid" too. I have a waay modded clutch pedal, and JWT clutch and flywheel, so the CLUTCH itself feels good, but the gearbox is kinda weird. there is an odd little bump or click going into almost every gear. I'm not complaining really, I'm just saying I notice it.

My theory is its an unusual synchro-mesh design. I'm not really qualified to make a judgement about weather its good or bad. (But after blowing my 5th gear synchro last month, I am a bit easier on it now than I would be a more standard feeling box)
