I didn't get pics of the ring swap unfortunately. But it's pretty easy to do. The ring just sits a little higher on the cone shaped part of the shifter which gives it a little more flush look in my opinion.

Can't wait to give it a try. The weight difference has to give it a much different feel I would assume.

Took the Z out for a drive this morning to try out the shift knob. The weight of the knob makes a big difference. Shifts feel smoother now. I also like the shape of the knob much better over the stock one. I highly recommend this shift knob to anyone that is on the fence about it.

The weight def makes shifts fall into place much nicer Glad you like it. It does fit in your hand pretty well, huh?

Yeah, 3/4 or possibly 1". Pretty sure either would work. The bottle cap trick also seems like a good way to go.

I had thought the same due to the quoted message. Although a page back I gave a slightly deeper description. In my head I was hoping he was refering to that

Good to hear, it's gonna be tough for me to compare against the stock since I swapped out my oem on day one to the Nismo GT Titanium.
