I've found similar knobs made by Momo and Razo and most of them clock in between 100 - 200 grams. At that weight I'd rather stick with the stock knob.

They weigh 350g. Come in blue, red, silver and wood grain.

just as an FYI, we sell our version of the Hebi Bebi shift knob, at 1/3 the price. We have very, very limited supplies and they sell out quick...but you can always email us to see what colors we have available and what wait times might be. These are countersunk to all hell and weigh in close to 1.5 lbs!

Now this is coincidence... I was going to post/ask feedback about this exact shift knob! Any Pictures installed on a 370z?

PM'ED

I got the sweetknobs.com Stainless Steel one on order. It's well priced and looks very 'home made' which I dig.

What finish is on this shift knob??

370z. · 06-15-2012, 11:39 AM

I can not makeup my mind about which knob I want! My Z is my first manual and I don't know why I just don't like the feel of the stock knob much. My options so far are:

-Tommy Kaira style ^

-NISMO Titanium

-Custom - (just won the auction $100) not sure if its worth it...Its definitely something you don't see often.

haha, thanks mr. zman.

i did try it out today, in fact. it's very good, the gates are crisp and short. the weight makes it easy and non clunky feel.

i should've just gotten this in the first place instead of going with that pw knob...

binary0x01 · 07-11-2012, 11:48 PM

I got this one

SweetKnobs.com Stainless Steel

400+ grams, great price, any size, great quality, good stuff.
