The added momentum helps get the car in gear. Trust me, it made a bigger difference then I thought it would.

But it seems hard to find one that looks similar to the stock shift knob (who's shape is perfect for me), The pokeballs and skulls and pistons seem a little juvenile to me and rob the Z of some sexiness.

Lots of knobs if not most do not have that. Here is mine. Way sexier then stock imo but thats all a personal choice.
