Need help picking out a shift knob!

[andru47]

:help:

I'm looking into changing my stock shifter knob. I have a stick shift. So, If everyone who has non-stock shifter knobs for stick shift can post their pictures on this thread it would be great help. This way I can see how the knobs look attached and pick out the one I think will work best for me.

Thanks!!!

I have a weighted Razo knob (400G)
Weighted knobs help in shifting (especially if you have NST's ssk)

Custom delrin knob and Canarywood spacer (I can get the address for the guy who made the knob if you want - spacer is home-grown)

Mine is like the first one but mine is a NRG brand. Not so weighted though

I have the JDM vitz rs knob. It's black leather with a brushed aluminum insert. Looks really sweet and clean. Picked it up from kamispeed.com for $75. Definitely check it out.

What is the thread size for the manual and autos? I had it written down, but lost it... :(
1.25 x something.. damn forgot.

[PreciousPups4U]

12 x 1.25 = manual
8 x 1.25 = automatic

Just to let you guys know that the oem knob on a wrx is made by momo, same as the steering wheel.

And to the O.P., i have a twm knob on my wrx, and loved the weighted balance that i got another one for my yaris. Yes, there a bit pricy, but totally worth it, IMO.

I have the TRD black chrome one. Nice, but I wish it were weighted.

The stock rubber one is heavy.

[id3379]

that black one is dope.'

I have been striving to find the perfect shift knob for my 08 blue LB ...I started with the sport shift knob directly from Toyota and it was nice and looked great but became freezing to the touch in cold weather AKA all winter and chilly days so I was fed up with that and it cost 60 dollars for dealer to order it in although i've seen better prices online....Then I made two mistakes... I ordered the TRD leather ball shift knob and it was tiny and looked ridiculous so I took it back to dealer and ordered the other TRD leather shift knob that is seen on the main toyota websight and all over the net....It was nice looking but wouldn't tighten enough withough crushing the top rubber piece on my stock shift boot....so it was useless unless I swap my shift boot...AND IT SET ME BACK 76 DOLLARS FROM THE DEALER...(i HAVE LEARNED NEVER TO BUY DIRECTLY FROM THE DEALER FOR STUFF LIKE THAT ..BUT TO CHECK ONLINE FIRST ALWAYS) Now I have a black round shift knob that i ordered from www.monsterknobs.com.... I like the feel alot and it warms up fast in winter unlike aluminum. The only thing I don't like is that it leaves a big gap between shift knob and top of rubber boot so I filled it in with blue hockey tape to match my seat covers(cheap and easy not for everyone but it looks ok) definately my fav shift knob so far and was 39.99 with free shipping. It does give it a ball on a stick look like old style shifters... Although now that i found out subaru's have same threading I might try to get my hands on a leather subaru shift knob.

looks like the shift knob off a IS300 or camaro.

The reason for the gap is that it is a Subaru knob - they have the threads lower down inside the knob than Toyota do, so it leaves a gap. I filled mine with a turned piece of wood, but you could easily make the threads deeper and get rid of the gap.

Thanks it is definitely comfortable I always liked the round knobs. The KNOB is supposed to be the same material as pool balls are made of according to monsterknobs.com. They say that it is Crosslinked Aldehyde Resin (CAR™) which stays strong and doesn't get nearly as cold as metal. I would like to replace my boot but haven't investigated enough yet. Redlinegoods.com makes shift boots for the yaris but they are like 60 dollars so I would like a cheaper option but not quite sure how to fit a universal one. If anyone has good shift boot tips I'm all ears.....

THIS IS MY SHIFT KNOB...

I like the ARC Full Titanium. Love the look, color, and feel.

Drawbacks: $$$, maybe gets hot in summer or sun.

I have this black chrome weighted one for sale in the classifieds.
