this is adorable

 

Raceseng Nitro

 

looks great! matches the stitch on the BRZ really well

 

 

Not my picture but same shift knob (Beatrush aluminum 50mm). I didn't expect to like the feel of a metal shift knob, but now I won't go back lol. I'd love to try a brushed titanium 50mm.

That's what she said.....

 

Ignore the caliper..

 

Billetworkz Fusion in matte black/leather.

 

fusion looks great. I was considering that one as I also have the ss kit

 

STI Duracon - 103g weight vs 199g for stock.

How does it feel, going with lighter gear knob?

 

Here's a thread with 4 pages of shift knobs:

EDIT: Here's a few I made

Shedua knob, I just finished this last night. It still needs a few final coats of matte polyurethane. I made this one sit a bit lower modeling it loosely after the JDM knob.

Love this kind of 1 of 1 sort of touches. Reminds me of reading Import Tuner as a youngin' and seeing majority of the builds have 1 of 1 touches since the scene/aftermarket wasn't as large. A guy who wanted a neon green shift knob to match their neon green exterior paint/theme, but no one made one so they just used an old busted snap-on screwdriver handle. That memory always stuck with me and I have nfi why.

 

 

Is this the thiccboi? Would you say it's taller or shorter than stock? Do you like it? This is the color and style I like I just don't know if I'm gonna like the weight of it 😭

 

Can’t find picture of mine directly, but I have this beauty from GRMN Yaris

😎

 

may be picking up a leather Morizo shift knob (P/N PTR57-12220-02). was it a direct fitment? no issues with the lockout?

 

 

I've been waiting for the Trueno knobs to become available from the dealer, hopefully soon. I dont want to fake being a Trueno I just really like the retro call back.

Thanks! I got hooked making shift knobs for my sim rig. Its fun to play around with making different shapes and heights. I know not everyone's into putting wood in a modern car but for me I dont mind, its more about experimenting than looks.

 

TOMS Carbon shift knob.

Honestly I'm not a big fan of carbon usually, but this had some perfect attributes going for it: slightly lighter than stock, great hand feel, and doesn't get hot or freezing like a metal knob would.

Only knob worth getting!

 

 

 

Billetworkz short teardrop.

 

Can you post some more pics of this? I'm considering getting the same one.

 

Just got a Cobb knob and I really like it.

 

 

Old Raceseng Contour off my FR-S. Had to bore it out for the reverse lockout to fit. Did it using a dremel and a vice. Made a little bit of an oops but you can't see it when its installed so I'm overall satisfied with it.

 

I see the look some of yall were going for!

Pinky is the GOAT!

 

Anybody try Twisted Shifterz? No specs on weight or material but they look cool and are pretty cheap.

White BRZ 6 Speed Pattern Shift Knob

Raceseng mono ti with 4” riser on billetworks short shifter

 

With the way the light is bouncing off this one, for a sec I thought this was clear plastic with pleated filter paper in it, like one of those small engine fuel filters.

Looks nice though. It looks like getting into reverse might be a bit of a chore thought with the extension.

 

Kazama Auto + my custom little spacer sleeve.

This is my current setup.
I think 170g.
Without the spacer there's a big gap + exposed c-clip.

Aluminum core, shaft adapter, and silicone coating.

Likewise Ghost. I stopped using this one because I stopped using the Billetworkz short shifter.

The Billetworkz has a 19mm ish reverse lockout, so it fits nicely with the gen 1 adapter from Likewise. Without the smaller diameter reverse lockout, you'll need to use the chunkier taller option.

240g ish.
Delrin shell that threads onto a steel base.

 

Tomei Duracon

 

Used this same knob for years in my 300zx has great feedback due to light weight
