banging the gears is gonna wear them out

think if it like this.. you don't slam on the brakes at the last second, everywhere you drive, right? slamming gears is just as harmful to the car, and even though transmissions are pretty cheap (well for me anyway, got my last one for $150) it's better to just take it easy. the stock yaris trans/cable/shifter setup is IMO just fine, and increasing the shifting velocity with the short shifter block is really just a placebo. you'll feel like you're shifting at lightning speed, but if you can't count in milliseconds, or are professionally drag racing (not autocross, one shift isn't gonna make/break your run) your yaris... it's kind of a pointless modification.

sorry to call it how i see it, i know this isn't what vendors want to hear.
