A Redline Goods leather Boot (for a 350) worked just great and is a nice upgrade over the cheezy plastic for only $60.. Knob here is a Miata pearl finished "Team Voodoo"...Same thread (10 x 1.25) as the Z..

Weighted Shift knob
I bought a TWM weighted shift knob from Canada, it's made a huge difference in shifting quality. This thing weighs 1.32 pounds!
 and is a bit shorter then the stock set up. I was running the Nismo one previously, which IMO is way too light, I use to mis-shift 1st to 2nd b/c of the effort it took to move it. Now I have no problems. I will upgrade to a short throw shifter later on, but I'm pretty satisfied for now. This would be a great edition to a short throw shifter.The model I got was the Desert Eagle & the color Is gun blue finish, which is actually more of a satin black.
