Default Question: Do I need a short shifter?

I recently recieved my Z and am still in the process of learning how to drive manual perfectly. I've always thought the shift was short, however when racing I notice it really isn't that short. The times I notice the biggest problems are when shifting from 2nd to 3rd and 4th to 5th, I miss gears some times and get stuck in the area between 1st and 3rd and 3rd and 5th. I know some of the problem is driver error but I think I'm trying to shift really fast and the distance is just a little too far for the shifter to travel. Would the short shifter help my problem at all or is it totally driver error??
