What are some good weighted shift knobs?

I like the TWM knobs but they are expensive. Anyone have any recommendations?

That's the "starting" price.. Most are $150 - $200.. And for a ball of steel.. That seems like a lot to me.

Password JDM v2 shift knob

Great weight, made a significant difference in the "feel" of changing gears.

that is by far one of the WORST shifts knob ive tried.

that egg shaped top is ergonomically incorrect for 2nd and 4th gear shifts.

I just ordered the polished Blackline shift knob. It looks beautiful and at 7.1 onces is very heavy, plus, $79.99 price tag is pretty low for such a nice knob. Should arrive this week. With a TWM short shifter I think my Z will shift like a dream.
