6 puck vs stock clutch

So I'm doing a 5spd sway into my runner and was wondering what really is the difference between the stock clutch and a 6 puck racing clutch. Smoothing shifting?

From what I remember from my 300z and mustang boards the 6 pucks are not recommended for daily driver applications. I think that it's almost impossible to engage a 6 puck smoothly.
