I'm going to have to go with the Password JDM or stock. The PJDM has great weight! Nismos looks cool, but I think a round top shifter is much more ergonomically correct and comfortable.

is there anything that's similar to the shape of the stocks? I like the shape, but... it's stock.

I have a TWM and love it. It sat a little low and I have recently added a spacer to set it at the perfect height for me. The knob is satin and spacer is SS but I really like the contrast. I can always have them both refinished to match later on.

It was, I kept grabbing the boot but now it has been raised about an 1.5"s and its perfect for me. I dont have any pics of it with the spacer and wont for some time but the nice thing abou the TWM knobs is you can set it at the perfect height for you. It took some playing around with but now the height seems to be more natural and its very easy to shift. Plus in that pic i actually had the boot installed wrong, I had the plastic ring on upside down and it pushed the top of the boot up higher so the neck on the knob was covered up. When I finally realized my mistake, it sat a lot better.
