Aftermarket shift knobs? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

titusdrake · 04-12-2012, 10:58 PM

As most of you havent driven the frs/brz yet this question might be irrelevant.. But what aftermarket shift knobs will people be looking at? It might be hard to find one that fits right because under the knob theres a little disc that you pull up to get into reverse.. I have large hands and i find the stock shifter a little on the small side, what do you guys think for shift knobs?

Im really hoping one of my mazda knobs fit because I like all of them more than the stock frs knob. Dunno what threading the frs has though, but Ive got a 50/50 chance, hah.

Failing that, something from moddicition or joyfast maybe, something similar to current OEM mazda knobs (mx5, rx8, etc).

I would love to get a Spacro Globe on there... And paint the center strip on the knob WR Blue... But gotta check with that reverse disc first...

I'll get the Razo RA96 once I get my fr-s. It works with the reverse ring.

Wow! Those look fantastic! Thanks for sharing, i might seriously get one of those. I feel like shift knob is the most important "mod" you can do... Because its the part of the car you touch the most... Aside from the seats and steering wheel.. Both of which are fantastic in the fr s

I've tried that arc knob in the past and it's weighted well.
