no...but its like buying a cheap steering wheel. you're going to regret it. its one of the main things that connects you to your car...wouldnt you want it to be something you enjoy?

personally, i love the tomei duracon one, good size and feel..and designed to not heat up on those 90 degree days

(even though i'll be pussyfooting my steering wheel hehe)

My stillway shifter uses it's own knob and my Trust short throw has a stock Silvia shift knob with a weight in it...

I love that stock shift knob to death. It's so heavy I could kill a man with it should that situation arise.

One bubble knob- Free
One 8" bubble knob- Free
One Nismo GT knob- Free

I don't pay more than nothing for shift knobs for the 240.

speedgod^s13 · 09-09-2007, 12:50 AM

+1 for the Tomei Duracon shift knob. Living here in Hawaii, and only having half a garage, I need something that won't burn my hand. I do that enough, watching pron.

ayuaddict · 09-09-2007, 05:32 AM

ive had a bubble knob in my car (10" i think) it was cool for a while. right now i have a skunk2 (yes, skunk2) one that my friend gave me. its pretty nice and i hear they go for a bit over $40? not bad, weighted feels pretty nice.

But it will give you 50 extra penises.

phreze · 09-09-2007, 08:38 AM

I got my ARC shift knob for $80 but I have seen the Aspec one in person and it looks similiar, meaning built well and for cheapers. I do rock the e-brake knob from him.

But Logan, we all know you need that woodgrain to match your Nardi.

**ThatGuy** · 09-09-2007, 08:51 AM

I've heard the "burnt" finish on some Ti knobs wears off from use.

Anyone?

***S13SilviaGirl*** · 09-09-2007, 10:09 AM

Wanna talk about rare???

ORC (ogura racing clutch) 10th anniversary, numbered, limited edition shift knob:

#423/1000

Koopa Troopa · 09-09-2007, 10:16 AM

That's just a Razo with some nice lettering on it but they are nice knobs none the less.

The Project Mu knobs are nice too.

Haha, I thought of you when I saw this thread title Carlos.

Also, LOL at you guys who think that a shit knob is some intergral part of the auto or something, spending lots of money on a shit knob is ridiculous.

It's HIS own company?

I always thought he either owned it, but it was more probable that he's a rep...

Cause if he owned it he'd probably be too cool to post on forums.

Farzam · 09-09-2007, 10:28 AM

I think i'm gonna go buy a Hurst shifter today

Unholy S14 · 09-09-2007, 10:41 AM

but yea id pay 100 for a bad ass knob.

corwin · 09-09-2007, 10:48 AM

Hes just a rep. The owner drives an Elise =p

Or he did when I picked up the goods from Logan last year.
