Really? I never look at the knob. How do you drive in the dark?

Pretty sure it's a 3/10 troll effort. If not, really sorry Ketchup. That's like asking how to know how to climb stairs without looking at the steps you're actually on.

i had this one installed for a year.



i started thinking about changing it when my dad tried moving the car once and spent 30 minutes trying to get it to go in reverse.

what i gained in anti-theft, i lost in clutch wear!

Bumping a couple months...

Any suggestions on a shift knob smaller than stock (MT)?

Small as in grip. Lol.

Thanks in advance

I rock a Raceseng Apex R - it's smaller than the stock knob and feels great. Just watch out when it's wicked hot or wicked cold out...

Why stop at the grip? Ever consider a stubby shifter? I thought Boomba Racing made short throw/stubby shifters for the 86.

At least you're not asking about giant shift knobs. All I can think about is the excessive leverage being put on the transmission.

I didn’t like a lot of the designs so I decided to make one. Solid brass turned on a lathe, laser engraved and cerakoted.
