A Short Shift Kit (SSK) helps for sure, but after 3K miles it's gone.

Maybe I got used to the shifting and doesn't happen any more, or it doesn't revs when I shift any more.

I could let some onelse drive my car and I'll see if it revs when shifting.

But for my every day driving, no more revs between shifts.

I think you are referring to the fact that once you get used to how your car's engine works, the rev up/down thing gets handled a lot better instinctively.

As far as the SSK, I've had it for a year and I wouldn't drive another MT Yaris without it.
