So what are the consequences of turning the shaft when trying to remove the factory knob? I twisted mine about half way around thinking the knob was coming off only to find my pliers on the shaft were slipping. I finally got the knob off but ended up destroying it in the process, it would not budge using the strap method. I also managed to get a small cut in the shift boot in the process so I've ordered a new one from Redline. I put my Vodoo countersunk knob that I had from my S2000 but I may order a Nismo knob to have another option. Has anyone here tried the Password JDM knob?
