[ProfessorDave]

I know from reading other posts from Z owners with the Password: JDM shift knob there tends to be a rattle when the engine is revving. I did two things that cured it:


Next, get a rubber grommet like this one (cost me less than a dollar at a home improvement store):


Place it on the shift lever (at first I tried it under the shift boot, but that didn't work. But here's a shot of how to remove the trim around the shifter anyway, then the grommet on the shift lever:



Remove the little collar inside the shift knob (I think this is the source of most of the rattling):


Reinstall the knob, and you should be rattle free!
