I don't have the same one but... With the Neuspeed one it does sort of sit a little to 2 o clock, and the gears will feel closer together. That's why it's called a short shifter.

it is so you dont accidentaly throw it into reveres when you dont want to and you probly shouldnt be able to put it in to revese without pushing it downt iam not to sure if it is good for it or not but thats what it is for
