Stick Shift

Hi,

I am a newbie here. Just bought a 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT with 71,000 miles. The car seems to running great and the interior is excellent, it really only needs a paint job and replacement of the window seals from what I see so far.
Question? I am use to driving manual on newer cars and it has always been very smooth to shift. I feel like it's a workout for me to shift(sorry, i'm a female). Are all Fiero's that tight to shift? Could there be something wrong that I can change to make it an easier shift? I am going to change to a short shifter, would that be easier too?
What do you think I need to replace to make sure it runs effectively? Spark plugs, distributor,etc...Please help!

P.S. I am living in San diego now. Does anyone know of a place they fix Fiero's at in or around San Diego?
