i have the NST full bushing set in cabin and linkage/ TRD short shifter with included adapter plate and the TWM in cabin shift arm with a 2" extention to reposition the shiter a little higher.
i have to say i really love the feel now and i did run without the plate for a while...
it was all out of lazyness... but my god it makes quite the huge difference with it installed!

no more having to throw your shifts all the time.. they are now quite smooth and easy to put in and out of gear.

I had a problem like the OP described. The cable was just to tight into the SSk.

Some WD-40 solved it. Spray the hole assembly...

Do this. I also have the piggies SSK (couldn't pass it up for only 50 bucks) and the shifting is firmer but I personally like the feel a let better. Spray it down with WD40 and that should help out a lot.

my setup is similar but using http://www.doctorisotope.com/gearswitchers. If you can handle the install it is worth it.
