One word, LOCTITE.

That is what the included loctite is for.

apply a decent amount of loctite on the shifter's threads on one side (dont need to put a huge amount), thread in the knob, get the pattern to your preferred angle, and let it dry over night. should work just fine. :)

i like my shift pattern slightly facing the driver side. :p

kenchan 12-16-2011 02:31 PM
yep, loctite will fix that. if you want to physically torque it down you can add spacers on the shaft side to get it pretty close and let the loctite do the rest, etc.

there's ways around this.

alchemy- while you have the boot loose can you take a pict of the ring inside the boot how it's mounted to the tip of the boot? i want to shave some of the plastic off or replace with another conal spacer to rid the step between the knob trim and the slope of the boot. (no mt fuji look) :p

It seems I do have a flawed piece. PWJDM can you send me a new piece? And do you want me to send back the one I have?

Smaller than the stock one? It's been hard to tell in the pictures but they look to be about the same size.

looking good! actually how you pulled up the boot around the knob the mt.fuji looks much less obvious. :tup: i'll have to see how mine looks when i install it over the weekend. :yum:

happytheman 12-16-2011 03:12 PM
Ryan, those pics look great!! I can't wait to get home to see mine! :)

Alchemy 12-16-2011 03:18 PM
Its amazing how BIG of a dif such a LITTLE part can make. It shifts amazing. Feels so much more direct. I love it. EXCELLENT WORK!!

Sorry Ken didnt see that post requesting pics till after it was back together. I pulled the boot up on the stock knob too. I just like how it looks.

Thanks Happy!!!

Its smaller. Its shorter and feels smaller in your hand. Not complaining, its perfect. Weight is dead on.

Hey Mark,

We just sent you a PM to try and solve this issue.

Here is what we sent you just incase anyone else runs into an issue.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under the stock shift knob there is a small aluminum spacer around the actual shifter. This should be removed prior to installing the Password:JDM shift knob.
Thanks for the tip :tiphat:

We are going to need a 370z owner with an AUTOMATIC transmission to come by our shop to test fit a our prototype shift knob / gear selector. Who would like to volunteer?

We will give you a complimentary knob / selector once they are finalized =)

:tup: good deal. Im sure it wont take long to find someone.

ZForce 12-16-2011 04:47 PM
Hey guys thanks for all the DYI and info. I am hoping mine will be easy since I have currently the Nismo GT Titanium knob. So Ken, do I just unbolt the allen screw from the top and plop the new one on? Hopefully mine will fit snug, if not am I looking at popping the boot cover to drop in a few rubber washers? Thx in adavance.

He used two o-rings and it works perfect. We tried it out and we agree. It's a good solution. If your shift boot is sagging a bit, we would be more than happy to mail you out of few of these o-rings, free of charge =)

Does this apply to my pw:jdm radiator cover?

Here's a quick shot to lend scale all. Super excited to try it out. I must admit that I thought it was going to be a little larger.
