shift knobs....what are you guys using? - Page 3

roadsternut · 06-15-2006, 01:27 PM

Another with polished Voodoo, since 2000, so it now has a nice patina. Over the years, I've had Momo Sport, Razo ball, factory leather Nardi and stock. They've all ended up in the proverbial bin. Can't go wrong with the Voodoo. As a paint manufacturer say, it does exactly what it says on the ti..

socalbreeze · 06-15-2006, 01:57 PM

Custom turned wooden knob

Dicker · 06-25-2006, 12:13 PM

Razo RA66A in black chrome

400 grams ftw.

H_C · 06-28-2006, 10:05 PM

I got a "Carbon Fiber" from Moss(MiataMania). It doesn't get buring hot, taller than stock, and is easy to clean.

z00mer · 06-30-2006, 03:04 AM

Sola luna. Nice knob. But likes to fry your hand in hot desert climates.

Nothing an Oakley sunglass bag can't solve. Plus....it also polishes the knob quite well. :wink:

socalbreeze · 07-10-2006, 04:50 PM

Just copped this:

Yowza! That's a hefty price tag. Is it weighted?

socalbreeze · 07-10-2006, 06:03 PM

freedomgli,

Yessir it is weighted!

I didn't pay MSRP I copped it off a dude who took it off for a knobmeister. He claims brand new but it looks 95%. Who cares tho, the price was great!

07-10-2006, 06:49 PM

For some reason, lately I've had an urge for a white knob. I just ordered this from Japan:

socalbreeze · 07-10-2006, 07:55 PM

After seeing Bryan's white Nismo knob, I can understand why.

superboosted · 07-11-2006, 08:23 PM

sparco globe x,leather..have had 3,very sweet.

speedworks · 07-11-2006, 08:56 PM

anyone ever thought of having a custom shift knob made up? any ideas for something custom and/or crazy looking for a shift knob?

i love custom one-off stuff so this type of project is right up my alley.

raen419 · 07-12-2006, 05:27 PM

Does anyone here know about the quality of Moss's polished knobs? I'm looking into the pistol grip one for my R2 Limited/M2-1001 interior (work in progress, pics will be posted when all is done) since the Voodoo Pistol Grip is too skinny.

It doesn't matter since you are going to install the RS Factory Stage shift knob.

Huh?
I am?
Glad you know this and I don't...lol
Elaborate for me please.

nismo resin looks like a squishy stress reliever ball.

anyone ever think of that? maybe hard on the inside, soft on the outside? to cushion the shifting?

DITTO, but from goodwin racing.

boogie van · 07-14-2006, 12:16 PM

dang I dont know if I could deal with a knob that tall. I know I was kinda irritated when my new knob sat maybe a centimeter higher. I just kept taking it on and off until it sat a little lower (plastic inner sleeve)

djsqiigles · 07-15-2006, 06:23 PM

i also am using a nismo GT knob on my shift extender right now.

largest image for the win!

raen419 · 07-18-2006, 01:10 AM

I had the Nismo GT in my 240sx, and a Nismo leather one before it. If it didn't have a logo, I would still love that knob.

Roadster Dave · 07-24-2006, 11:24 PM

Are the NISMO knobs made of delrin? I was thinking about getting the Greddy delrin LW knob but have held off so far because i am worried about how the lighter weight will affect shift feel. Anybody have feedback with lightweight knobs?

djsqiigles · 07-25-2006, 12:15 AM

Nah, Nismo GT knobs are llike a weird rubber like material. But not a cheap feel. Its strange.

Atfirst it feel like plastic then after it breaks in you can squeez it in a big... Really cool and comfortable.
