I got it in black with a shift boot retainer to help it sit better.

Forgot if I posted here about it, so maybe playing like a broken record....but I did the Hebi Bebi. Drank that Kool-Aid, and it's been feeling like the last knob I'd ever need.

Went with the PW JDM knob at first. Nice weight, just so happened to align perfectly for me without any shims, but still tall and I noticed I just grabbed closer to the base over time so I could feed shifts more reliably.

Then did the Nismo Ti. Really cool piece. Catered to to the whole "tactile" feel for the shift gates. The clunks were getting old, and sometimes casual shifts would slip because there's nothing to the shape or surface.

The TK knob just gave me a bit of everything. I didn't even bother mounting it face-forward. Just flush as possible.

I don't know if it is going to be the best, but I just ordered the new Vision knob in red from Raceseng. I already have the weighted Contour knob from them.

problem is stock i've found is absurdly limited

it may be easier to overpay for a TK

Yeah, it looks like they are out of stock on everything. I like the satin looking finished one. I'd love to have the TK. I'll have to keep a lookout for one.

I ordered it also just to see what it's like. I ordered it a day before they started their 4th of July sale.

The Vision is super light

I hate you both. I want one now. Let me know how it feels with the coolerworx, I am curious what a lighter one would feel like.

dave11 · 07-05-2020, 09:01 AM

madwi, I am also interested in the difference in feel between a weighted short knob and a taller light weight knob.

I've tried a lighter shift knob (Raceseng Apex R) on the woolerworx and prefer it. The shape of the Apex R sucked though (it has a cutout in it that cut into my hand). As for the shape and comfort of the Vision, we'll see.
