GTM High MASS Shift knob poll

Whtfairladyz · 12-03-2013, 09:00 PM

To be honest none of the designs are revolutionary or new. Tomei, NISMO and Dewla Designs are just a few of companies I know already making 90% of these designs.

The problem with ALL of them is that none match the interior of the 370Z AT ALL.

I know a lot of these are similar to ones on the market, what i wanted to do with them though is offer them in a heavy knob with oem fitment. I dimensioned them from the 370z factory knob and shifter shaft, the bottoms of the knobs are designed to be the same size as the factory shift boot where most aftermarket knobs are much smaller. This is why the bottom of every knob i drew is the exact same size, I can guarantee they will fit just like the OEM knob. As for the requests for asymmetrical knobs I want to stay away from them as a cost standpoint since they would cost quite a lot more to manufacture, and I am trying to keep these affordable and in house so there will be a quick turnaround. An asymmetrical knob would need to get cast to keep it affordable but that would add significantly to the time.
