no, that short little shifter is more like
IMO
The stock shifter is nice, but the shortness of the 6 speed sets it apart and makes it look quite different. I wouldln't know about the throw -- I've never driven one.

If you want to possibly have it higher, you may want to use a 97-98 6spd shifter assembly. Earlier models were a bit shorter.

I drive my on only sunny days, so daily yes

Well, that first pic has the 5spd TRD shift ****, which as far as I know, doesn't fit on the shifter assebly of the 6spd. The second pic is in fact the 6spd, and it does have the reverse lock-out under the shifter boot.
Here are two pics of mine.

I like the feel of my 6spd, better than when I had the w58 in the car. It doesn't feel as mushy, but some people would prefer that. I felt like I was going to break that shifter off on the 5spd when I did some hard driving. The 6spd on the other hand is extremely managable, has a much stronger feel to it as well. Plus, I enjoy the gearing of the car with the getrag and the 6spd tt diff.
The reverse lock-out is used to prevent you from shifting into reverse instead of 6th gear. You need to pull up on the part under the shifter **** in order to get it into reverse.

I actually like the lockout, its not a pain at all. Just pull up the release with your index, middle finger and thumb and move it into reverse. Its a nice saftey precaution to have.
