As others have noted, noise is totally normal with this gearbox.
You'll learn to love it.

I test drove an old FWD car with a semi-decent gearbox (Matrix XRS with the Celica GTS 6-speed) and it felt very rubbery and imprecise (same with the new WRX) compared to the BRZ. Once you get used to it, that direct feel is addictive.
