Installed my new BLOX 490gram spherical shift knob and reverse lockout adapter.

Makes gear changes feel so nice

That sits so high. How short is the throw? Stock?

Sits maybe 3/8" above stock height because of the reverse lockout adapter. The sphere itself is a tad bit bigger than the stock size as well. Throws do not feel any longer.

The weight behind this knob is amazing and makes the shifter pretty much just fall into gear. Way better fit in the hand as well.

Made a pilgrimage to Mazda Raceway with my BRZ. Souvenir store was closed by the time I got there but I got to see the corkscrew at least! Saw a highly modified Lava FR-S too and exchanged deuces.

I heard about this, and definitely want to try it since it seems to be working. Any tips on how I can do this for myself?
