you'll have to do the GT2 slave conversion which gets rid of the hydraulic assist when you push down the clutch pedal. Few vendors on here sell the GT2 slave conversion as a kit (AMS, speedtech, Evoms, sharkwerks....)

I'm just trying to get the gear changing to be more like that rifle bolt feeling.
You need the solid cables. Mine feels exactly how you describe. Get the Numeric SSK and the cables.

Well maybe try the cables 1st as that will probably do it.

I assume changing the shifter cables will not change the feel. Is the Porsche GT2 shifter what allows the rifle-bolt feeling or is it something in the transmission?
The B&M shifter is rifle bolt like.
