On every manual transmission car I've owned a short shifter was easily the most rewarding mod that paid itself off every time I drove the car especially in my previous m3.
I am still convinced that all German STS shifters are positively shit. I have yet to try one that I actually liked.

changing your shifter to a smaller one will make a big difference. yes it wont affect overall throw lengh, but it is a cheap and easy way to make the shifts feel postively notchy and sporty over the rubbery, indifferent feel of a completely stock BMW shifter.
