How are short shifters these days? Worth the spend or not?

With the 6 speeds, do you find it's still same same as 5 speed to hit the 'gate' between 1st and 2nd when doing rapid changes. Do you find you're spending much more time changing gears/frustrated with close ratio 6 speeds?

Possibly things to let slip due to the toughness of the box.

How much extra weight is in the 6 speed?

Maybe stupid question, when changing gearbox/ratios, retune needed? Got a Verso atm.

Inspecting the box is nice, but still hard to judge hows it's been treated - Always kinda going on the sellers word that it's had a good life etc.
Quick question, is this gearbox oil Motul Gear Competition FF 75W140 or is it Motul FF-LSD Type 2 75W90. I thought 75W90 was a better oil to use in our gearboxes and diffs.
