TWM Performance Shift Knob
 
I had been thinking about getting a short shifter but after some research I opted just to try a weighted shift knob. Ordered a Big Type R from TWM Performance. Brown truck delivered it this afternoon. I'll take it out for some testing tomorrow.

You need a ballcock shank washer or some premade finisher to finish it off.
Looks unfinished without it.

Ordered this finishing ring from Zeetoys.com and it came in the raw aluminum finish but wanted to match the knob. Took it to work today, scuffed sanded, wash primer and a finish coat of Polane color matched to the knob. I'll install this evening when I get home.

might suggest putting a piece of nylon between the finisher and your biggie type-r so that your paint doesnt scratch off when you tighten down the knob. :)

Not real sure which one I like better, I kinda like it without the ring

Middle one! That's the one I'm going to when I stop spending money on the turbo

I actually like it better without the ring on it.

my modded ballcock shank washer was like $2 and has a much lower profile and clean finish.

too bad no more picts available. only one pict in my albums page. :icon17:

Yeah if that spacer had a lower profile I would like it.

Had the same issue with my shift knob OP. I went out to Home Depot and bought this and mine sits perfectly flush. Use this:
