The stock ZF shifter just always felt as if I was rowing thru butter. I would think shift effort has some dependency on arm strength as well. To me the Hurst has always produced a very positive, definitive gear change. It doesn't leave anything to your imagination. My son owns a 350ZX, and he always comments on how positive the gear change feels in my ZR.
N.B. I am using a Fidanza FW w Camaro LT1 sprung hub disc and stock PP.
I check and change my clutch fluid 2-3 times/yr depending but particularly if there is some type of competitive driving taking place. After using BMW Castrol
for many years, I just switched over to Amsoil Manual Trans gear oil. I really have not noticed any difference.
