SC300 manual should be the same as the Supra 12mm x 1.25

What's the point of having a shift **** of known weight? Can you actually feel a difference while shifting? I've just never heard of the concept before.

the increase in weight creates more momentum, so shifts become smoother and more effortless

so 12x1.25 is the correct thread size? I saw another thread on here where everyone said it was 10x1.25.... but seems like more people are saying 12x1.25.. think i might just go with that...
