Machine shop with proper tools can do it.
Check the phone book.
just drill it out...then fill it with glue...then put it on
no but seriously...a machine shop would have to do it...is a shift knob really that worth it to you?
i made mine out of an ebay POS knob and bondo...then paint

tap that hole :) <--- inappropriate. Haha seriously though, is it really worth it? Take a look around Zilvia at different sponsor links etc... and see if you like any of them. Just seems like a waste of time and money to get a shop to re-tap a shifter?? I guess if you really love it though good luck tapping it.
--and good to see another convert from the Honda world :)

Yeah.. Just rethread the fucker...
If that don't work you can have the shift knob from my Silvia when I get back. It's a stock knob that weighs like 10 lbs and it's made with real bits of JDM so you know it's good.
Yes, it's possible just needs to be re-threaded to fit... like others have said a machine shop can do it for you.
If you only like Honda shift knobs maybe you should stick with those :P
