Custom Titanium Shift Knob - what you think?
 

Just wanted some opinions on this shift knob, I was plaining on getting the Nismo or a tommy kaira but this seems a bit more unique. Being my first manual I'm not sure how much I would like it, I always seem to think the stock knob is too high up. Dude told me it should weigh 275 to 300 grams. Asking $100 think its worth it?:eek dance:

This looks a lot like the WC Lathe Werks shift knob. Look at their website, they have many other options you may like. Somewhat pricey, but the quality is great. However, if you're looking for a cheaper sphere shift knob, look at BLOX Racing.

steez,
Thanks for the quick response, you live in socal too I see, do you have a metal knob? Will it be a pain when the knob gets too hot or will just throwing a towel over it work?

I don't have a metal knob, but I had plans for buying one in the near future. However, my buddy who own's a s2000 has a metal knob, & your assumptions are the exact opposite of the reality, lol. In fact, after driving his car a few times I've noticed his metal **** knob is pretty cold at first touch, and as you touch hold onto it more it only gets as warm as your hands are.

Ordered it!
Think its worth it...more unique than anything I've seen avaliable in the price range.
Can't wait for the install!!!

I like it minus the ridges but it looks like a quality piece. I had a metal knob in my si and it would burn me in the summer. I had to bring a sock to hold it when I drove home from work. Just for reference, the car thermometer said 115 lol

Actually the ridges are the cool thing I love about the knob...Since it is a lot of hard work to burn the inside of the ridge blue without the outsides of the line changing colors so that's pretty much custom crafted...

Yeah the guy I bought it from was complaining about it getting hot as well but he lives in Hawaii. Lets just see how it goes If I end up keeping it, hoping it wont get affected because I don't park under the sun much.

You gonna feel like hugging it every time you drive from now on, LOL :icon17:

I'm so stoked! I cant wait to install it!

Any tips on removing the stock knob guys?

It is very very difficult to remove, try to put extra layer of clothes to prevent it from being damaged...

Yeah i definitely don't want to damage the stock knob...Guess ill just have to take my time with it and maybe buy one of those strap grip tools...
