View Full Version : dumb Shift Knob question

I've been looking at shift knobs and was wondering if a Honda/Acura knob would fit a 240? The ITR style knobs go for really cheap and I dont think it'd look bad, they dont say 'R' anywhere or anything dumb.. Lemme know what you guys think.

the resin nismo knob may look weird at first, but after a while it grows on you. They fit great in your hand very well and dont get hot in the sun. I got the white one in my car. http://www.mossyperformance.com/nisknob6.jpg

Whats up with the liscense plate on your dash? Also, the nismo butt plug knob, is it possilbe to get the shift boot to be flush with the bottom of the shift knob(other than a short shifter)? I think it is soo ugly to see the shifter rod.

heh the license plate..I wanna take mine off too but I think damn PIGs would gimmie some dumb ticket for it.
samiam

im not sure about the ticket thing, but as long as the plate is visible and in plain view facing the front of the vehicle ur safe...but they will pull you over to hassle you about it....not sure if that's true across the nation, but that's how it be like in Texas.

Actually the proper term is Nismo "dildo" knob. Even with a short shifter(obx anyway) it still wont be flush. I got the shift boot flush by wrapping some rubber bands around the shift lever underneath the shift knob. Doing that will give the boot a new place to rest. It never comes loose and looks good.

i got the nimso dildo knob
went to home depot
got a big fat nut. put it on shifter under boot, so boot is flush w/ knob.
anyways, the nismo knobs are nice
had a greddy (with the shift patter) but in the sun it go so hot shifting was painful.
might get a tomei or another nismo next HMM
