It is because the triaxe has the springs in it to center it . I had the same issue with my steeda when I had it a few times , also had a few times I went to take off and put it in 4th, the springs they have in there do there job so you dont iss 3rd thats forsure but can be a problem on the other gears, none of the other shifters have it besdies the pro 5.0 to the rest do not have the centering spring in it.
I honestly think my che k member with tq limiters was a better upgrade then my shifter was.

I'd suggest two things to start
MGW or Pro 5.0 shifter and CHE K-member brace with Torque limiters
should take car of most of the issue, you could do prothane motor mounts but not needed in most cases
the remote mounted shifter causes trouble when the engine is under heavy load

mind telling me how the brace effects your shifting?

when you go WOT, the engine and
transmission torque clockwise (as
viewed from inside the car), this
causes a change in the shifter
linkage angle.
torque limiters limit the amount of
torqing, that the engine/transmission
can experience.

Found the CHE set-up at the site below for $149 shipped which includes both the k-member and torque limiters.
