shift knobs are one of my favorite car parts all around.. MODS can we get a sticky for this thread?! i'd love to see what everyone's got..

i rock the tommy kaira hebi bebi shift knob. a bit pricier than the nismo knobs, but man. so worth it.

at one point i also wanted one of the rare arc titanium neo chro knobs.

blox racing also makes some pretty sick knobs that are actually pretty affordable:

for the guys who like the zele knob, this could be a passable substitute:

i waited a long time for a brushed neo blox 490, but they were so backordered i never got one. once i got the z, i decided a round knob doesn't look as good in our cars. plus, the hebi bebi is the knob to end all knobs.

I just swapped out my shift knob - for the second time!!!
This time I put on a Stainless TWM M1 Abrams knob.
Heavy sucker - about 460 grams!!

Zele Titanium, replaced my Hebi Bebi. Hebi Bebi is to palm shifters as this is to grip shifters.

This is a great thread. i wish there were more non metal shift knob options such as jdm pw's.

i like the look of so many metal ones, but dont wanna fry my hand in the summer

Does anyone know of any more non metal shift knobs?

i loved me nismo titanium shift knob. its all about what style u want and how you wanna grab it. i was grabbing onto to mine like it was a joystick. i know some prefer balls instead.

I've yet to see anything that makes me want to remove the stock shift knob. Even on my 01 GT i just removed the OEM one and added an OEM 05 GT knob.

Well, at least u'r not gonna sit on it, HAHAHAHA! JK!

I haven't felt the Nismo knob yet, but the stock knob feels kinda big to me, since I came from an S2000.

Geez, my reply sounds nasty, HAHAHAAHH! :rofl2:

team voodoo pearl shift knob with zeetoys shift boot collar. the voodoo pearl has a clear coat finish over the metal so it matches the silver color on the interior a little better than bare metal. looks almost factory

I like your setups....I went through a couple variations and figured I'd post a couple pic's. First I colored in the number pattern on the stock knob then I moved on to the gun metal knob and finally found the red and black combo. The folks at Redline Goods were easy to work with and I had my custom boot within 8 days after placing order. They have a great selection.....

just as an FYI, we sell our version of the Hebi Bebi shift knob, at 1/3 the price. We have very, very limited supplies and they sell out quick...but you can always email us to see what colors we have available and what wait times might be. These are countersunk to all hell and weigh in close to 1.5 lbs!

Now this is coincidence... I was going to post/ask feedback about this exact shift knob! Any Pictures installed on a 370z?
