Shift knob (not a ball)

batman_4 · 06-30-2009, 10:29 PM

So you want something that looks literally like a stock knob or just an aftermarket that is not a ball?

I love my TWM weighted shifter, I had the Nismo, which sucked, too small/light.
The TWM actually improved the shifting b/c of the added weight. It's about twice the weight of the stock knob, which gives it a really solid feel.

The thing about the stock one is even with my larger hand (mostly long fingers) is it just seems a bit to big. Yet most of the ones I have picked up are way to small, and I know they feel great if I had smaller hands.
Thanks Tony, I am sure it would be great.

I am going to rotate between the two I have left (stock is gone), and maybe in a few weeks pick up another one. I think in the end I will never find the perfect one unless I have it custom made or something.

It looks a little goofy, but after trying a half dozen knobs, this one works just great. A BIG 2.25" diameter, available in a custom thread for the Z...
