hummmm... that is a gaping gap.

hahaha yah, a few spacers would help greatly.

ive still not decided wat to do with mine. it was a tad smaller than what i was hoping for so might just sell it.

Smaller than I expected too, was a tad worried. Once I installed it and had it in my palm it felt amazing.

I haven't put mine on yet for two reasons:
1) I don't have the o-rings. I know I can go out and get some, but I'm in no hurry.
2) It's def smaller than I thought it was going to be.

i was hoping to get a rounder (like the TWM big TypeR knob) size but oh well. it's no big deal.

i'll decide wat to do later.

HAHA!! I was looking at this exact shift knob too! You know what they say about great minds!

You gotta keep your MPH down. If you can do 60MPH you'll get the best MPG!

Trust me, put it on and drive it. I thought the same thing and I cant explain how good it feels once you are actually using it.

haha, that's funny.

this am, i sold my titeks (finally!) so i peeled back my Z's carcover to grab the new 4pcs that was still in the trunk. while raising the car cover it felt like i was pulling up a pretty girl's skirt.

haha.

and saw the interior of my Z for the first time in 4weeks.

after all the excitement i placed the cover back on as it's super humid today and didnt want condensation.

I spent a great amount of quality time with 2112 played through headphones -- many years ago.
